Dan, I e-mailed you but here is the info for the whole gang:

First off:

Anything by Djavan (but especially the two disc Ao Vivo live set)

Anything by Ed Motta (but especially Manual para festas e bailes Vol 1)

Anything by Fernanda Abreu (but especially Da Lata)

Anything by Marisa Monte

The supergroup Tribalistas (Marisa Monte, Carlinhos Brown and Arnaldo Atunes)

Anything by Ana Carolina (but especially her self titled debut)

For a ska / rock tip: Anything by Skank

For a samba soul experience: Aricia Mess or Paula Lima

Roots Reggae: Nativus / Natiruts (they had to change their name)


You need at least one record by Jorge Ben (probably more)

One more must have that you can get here: Luciana Souza Brazilian Duos


Also, for a hipper vibe: Bossacucanova, Mulato Beat, or Zuco 103

That should get you started.

Damn, almost forgot Lenine (you MUST own No Pressão which means "Under Pressure)
