Ahh, summer and hot Brazilian nights! Too hot? How about just right?
When it comes to the seasons and Brazil, everything gets a bit upside down. So as the land of Samba and Sun slips into the tropical chill of winter in the southern hemisphere, memories of a blazing hot summer still linger on the tan lines of the Copacabana faithful.
And here on this side of the equator? We are entering the hottest part of the year.
Yep, America’s summertime playgrounds from South Beach to South Padre, and from Venice Beach to Chicago’s Oak Street Beach are blazing hot again this year.
Can you recall a summer when it wasn’t?
In more ways than one: we’re back to living our lives again. This is the summer we’ve been waiting for. And Hot Brazilian Nights is here to revive you with a special two-hour soundtrack!
Think of those Copacabana memories as a preview of coming attractions because this week, The Sounds of Brazil takes you away for ‘Hot Brazilian Nights’.
The mix befits the occasion: rhythmic tunes from Bossacucanova, Bebel Gilberto, and Kaoma. Gilberto Gil throws down a reggae vibe and Marina Elali taps into the spirit of Celine Dion. On the ‘wind down and chill’ side, there’s Claudio Zolli, Tom & Julie, Adrianna Calconhotto (with her acoustic Brazilian guitar), and Deodato at “Sunset”.
And I’ll even try to include a few new tunes from our Top Brazilian Summer Sounds Music Showcase, too!
