The music of Old Brasil. Brasilian Roots!
Samba and choro, Brasilian-style and not North American-jazz style.
Samba-cançao! Slow and langquid
Samba at various tempi, slow and fast. Straight and reverse. With 8-bar partido alto patterns in the B sections.
Marisa Monte, Paulinho da Viola, Cartola.
Choro at various tempi, emotional, passionate, not like a ragtime hurdy-gurdy.
Choro waltz, sensual with a big emphasis on the 2 and a drag on the 3.
Pixinguinha, Jacob do Bandolim, Luciana Rabello, Mauricio Carrilho.
And with Brasilian instruments, 7-string guitar with nylon strings, cavaquinho (steel-string ukulele), pandeiro (the indoor equivalent of the drum kit), bandolim, clarinet, surdo!
You've got a lot of jazz-inflected bossa. How about some of the music of old Brasil? Some real global flavor! A bit of the real thing.
Thanks.

Exactly the post I was about to make! Just went to YouTube and found this, which highlights the same concept I'm looking for. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xlRZlsQYvVII'm playing choros on guitar and would like some rhythm like this to play over. Especially it would be great to have cavaquinho (ukulele) rhythm.

Actually, I had something more like this in mind: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SqiG9UWBXnMMurmurando, a true choro classic. More links to follow.

A modern "pagode" style tune performed by Caraivana, one of Brazil's great new roots bands. The tune is samba-based, but very much in the roots mode. Chords and Brazilian rhythms in the high strings of the cavaquinho, 7-string guitar slithering connecting basslines countermelody style, surdo (actually tom-tom in this case) on the backbeats. It's a 2/4 style, but 4/4 cut-time can be worked to the same effect. "Ser feliz" which means "be happy" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JDG9xFKNF5sGreat infectious groove, and I can't help but think that this could be done in BIAB.

Caraivana again, on the Jacob do Bandolim classic "Vibrações," a slow choro, 7-string guitar, bandolim (mandolin), pandeiro (hand-drum with jingles), tom-tom. http://www.myspace.com/caraivana/music/songs/vibra-es-57192692

Yes that's an excellent example. I would be happy to find that in BIAB. Great for practicing choros!

Ser feliz - What a fun video! I think it's worth rattling some cages a bit to get these styles into the mix. BIAB sells in Brazil, right? Brazil is the up-and-coming place, right? I wonder if there's anything we can do to help this along. I'm having fun learning some choros, but this metronome just doesn't cut it!
