Batucada Sound Machine Hit Australia

January 24th 2009 03:06
Batucada Sound Machine

New Zealand's 13 piece hip hop, funk, samba mash-up group Batucada Sound Machine are bringing their crazy Brazilian percussion based performance to Australia for a week long tour this February. As they explain, "Loosely translated, ‘batucada’ means percussive samba jam, which aptly summarises BSM’s musical roots. BSM began in 2003 when five passionate drummers met once a month in the dimly lit lounge bar of Galatos nightclub in Auckland to experiment fusing 'batucada' with more local beats and influences. Before long, a talented group of diverse musicians had joined in and the band had grown to 13 members".

With the individual members of the band involved in various solo and group projects outside of BSM, you might recognise some of them from earlier works, most recognisably in upcoming MC Hazadus showing his own style of soul infused vocals after years of fame in Che-Fu and The Krates.

If your able to make one of these performances then your in for a sweet night, and from what i've heard and seen in their performances locally and in Europe, you might need to get your boogie shoes on for this one.

Batucada Sound Machine will play:

Feb 12 @ East Brunswick Club, Melbourne

Feb 13 @ The Factory Theatre, Sydney

Feb 14 @ Canival In The City, Canberra

Feb 15 @ Becks Music Box, Perth

Feb 28 @ Music Mountain Matakana, NZ

Welcome to crate digging!

September 29th 2007 12:21
For a long time I've wanted to really explore music and its history; where a song comes from, what sample does it use, what are the old school greats that kids should listen to and pay their respects, and so on. Actually it's one of the reasons I started this Hip Hop blog, and it's taken me a year and a half to finally get something going on besides all the news and rumours that come and go, the tours and competitions and whatever else I post up here.

So let's bring it back to the music.

I'm talking old school and new school, Motown to Dirty South, gangsta rap to funky soul and much more. Let's start digging through those crates...
