Haaksman is in Rio….again. He claims its for “label” business, but everytime I skype with him, he’s in a rush because he HAS to go to the beach.
Well, I wish I was in Rio too, and so does Joyce Muniz. Which is why we decided to do a mix of some of the records that we picked up from Rio when we were there last Summer. Most of the tunes in the mix are from vinyl, from the days when they still pressed up Baile Funk onto wax. Some real classics in this mix, from now defunct labels such as Pipos, Balanco, Spacelab and Explocao.
Pardal, the manager of Rio´s fiercest female MC crew Gaiola Das Popozudas has sent us this new press photo of the Popozudas. Yes boys and girls, this is the funk carioca female body in full effect. Who needs Giséle Bündchen when there´s Gaiola Das Popozudas?

Baile Funk lives and breathes in Rio de Janeiro. Hearing the music being blasted out of car stereos and on the streets, tuning into the Baile Funk mix on the radio, going to the bootleg market to pick up the latest hits, being at a baile in a favela…. all I can say is, if you love Baile Funk, you should try to go to Rio.
Here are some of the torch bearers of Baile Funk that I had the pleasure of meeting.
DJ Marlboro
One of the first to make Baile Funk accessible to the masses. I got to see his set at his monthly night at Zero Zero club. Dude played a great mix of Miami bass and classic Baile Funk – the ladies loved it.
This is a pic of Sany, Sany’s nephew and me at Circo Viador. I reckon Sany’s nephew is going to become a dj too. I mean, I would too if my uncle could freak the MPC like that!
Gaiola das Popozudas
- The first lady of Baile Funk posing with me and the lovely Joyce Muniz. We saw Gaiola’s show in a brothel in Rio, where Dj Edgar also holds a residency. Gaiola is siiiick! She and her two dancers definitely know how to put on a show.
This is the original to the Makossa and Megablast remix
Edgar the criminal! He definitely took good care of me when I was in Rio. Check out the previous blog entries for his music, and go on to youtube to see Edgar on the MPC 1000. Deadly!
Big thank you to Julia Ribas, Joyce Muniz, Nathalie, Bu, Ben Mono, Tee Carducci, Edgar, Marcelinho, Luciano, the lovely ladies from the South, and everybody else who made this trip so enjoyable!!!
