Afro:Baile Records Celebrates 5 Years of Brazilian Music with New Album!

PHOENIX - Nov. 14, 2013 - PRLog -- Local Brazilian music record label, Afro:Baile Records, is set to celebrate a mile stone as the indie Brazilian label turns five years old! Label founder DJ Seduce and company will celebrate the half-decade mark with their 11^th studio album, entitled “Obrigado 2008-2013,” an anniversary album, showcasing an eclectic mix of Brazilian rhythms that’s perfect for all occasions.

Since 2008, Afro:Baile Records has crisscrossed Brazil’s various regions to find something unique, different and special. The bands and artists featured on Afro:Baile Records have taken the roots of Brazilian music from each of their own home states, and converted their musical influences to some of the best sounding works out today. The artists featured on Afro:Baile come from some of the most remote and popular places of Brazil, including Rio de Janeiro, Sao Paulo, Minas Gerais, Piula, Bahia and Roraima, to name a few. With no set standard on where the music comes from, the focus has stayed the same: discover the Now Sound!

“Obrigado : 2008 – 2013” is a musical joyride through the past and present of Afro:Baile’s musical catalog. From the sounds of Samba, Bossa Nova and Electronica, to Forro, Funk and MPB, Obrigado showcases the best of all styles and rhythms from some of today’s best Brazilian artists! Compiled with love by DJ Seduce, “Obrigado : 2008 – 2013”  takes listeners on a journey through the back catalog of the label, as well as the current sound of the future. From raw and organic, to funk and soul, Afro:Baile’s artists are some of the most sought after musicians, and singers playing in and outside Brazil today. This newest 15-song album gives Brazilian music lovers the right blend of classic meets modern day Brazil.

“We’re not calling it a “Best of” album, but more so a musical escape to the sounds from Brazils past, current and future” – says DJ Seduce.
