What exactly is Boogie? Is it a genre, an era, a style? Colours, clothes, textures are all part of its make up. Boogie is the “top shelf” music of the 80’s. Anything from this era that brings along Moog synths, vocoders, DX7s, or triggered Oberheim drum sounds, is Boogie!<\/p>\n
Brasil has a huge archive of underground dance-\u001foor heat. Di\u001efferent styles of music ranging from Macumba to Samba, MPB to Pop, Electro to early Hip Hop, were all stung by this Brasilian “Boogie Bug”, cleverly orchestrated by geniuses of the style; Robson Jorge, Lincoln Olivetti, Junior Mendes, Mister Sam, Sergio S\u00e1, to name a few, were the backbone of uncountable projects by big names of Brasil\u00b4s pop and underground music scene during the 80\u00b4s.<\/p>\n
This compilation brings together a bunch of non-obvious “compactos” (33 RPM 7″ singles), most of them, promos, which never saw the light of record store shelves, but instead sat for years in the dead-vaults of radio stations or ended up in second hand shops, \u001fea markets, church basements to junkyards.<\/p>\n
SDB Discos <\/strong>are excited to put together this eclectic selection inspired by the \u001dnest in Brazilian 80’s music. In this compilation we gathered 10 rare Boogie Hits from very well know maestros of the genre such as Tim Maia, Cassiano, Tony Bizarro and other underground artists like Elizio de Buzios with his only recording, the funky boogie joint “Tamanqueiro”, Gaby Whiskad\u00e3o featuring the disco hit “Super Amor”, the B-Boy Crew Electric Boogies with their very fresh early 80\u00b4s rap hit “Break Mandrake” as well as the very obscure group called Let\u00b4s Dance featuring their version of “Riguera” sung in Portuguese entitled “Dance com a Gente”.<\/span><\/p>\n Even after so many years, Brasil’s most obscure boogie gem is yet to be found on a long diggin’ session thru thousands of records full of weird looking haircuts, somewhere near S\u00e3o Paulo or Rio de Janeiro. This project is dedicated to all the “Boogie Heads” doing what they do best, keep searching!<\/p>\n SDB Discos<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" SDB Discos<\/strong><\/p>\n SDB Discos <\/strong>are excited to put together this eclectic selection inspired by the \u001dnest in Brazilian 80’s music.
