Brasil

I recently returned to Buenos Aires from a 9 day trip to Rio de Janeiro, quite possibly the most amazing city I have ever set foot in. There is a lot that makes Brazil a special place, but to me I think it's the music that takes the cake. Speaking of cake, the girls ain't so bad either, but that's another story. From Favela funk to Samba to Reggae to Hip Hop (hippy hoppy) to Rock, music is the lifeblood of the country. I am posting here some of my favorite tracks that showcase the aural diversity of this breathtaking land.
