to use next time there is a sweet NEW track from a young brega production
One of the most exciting aspects of Brazilian music over the past several years has been the rapid evolution of it's electronic scene. A young generation, building on the past stylistic developments of brega and baille (not to mention rap, house, and all things in-between), have blown their sounds wide open. With ears firmly cocked to the most interesting aspects of a variety of international sounds (think of Edu-K's brilliant introduction of dub-step drops into his tecno brega), these young producers are busy creating a body of work that is funny, stylish, and undeniably smart. A near perfect example of this trend can be seen in "Gaitero" the latest video from Leo Justi, one of our favorite Brazilian producers.
