Black Power Samba

/

Celebrates the union of samba and funk. Inspired by Brazil's iconic Banda Black Rio and the soulful grooves of R&B, the track explodes with vibrant rhythms and bold colors reminiscent of the 1970s. Nadri Brown layers more than 50 samples—brass, Rhodes piano, and samba percussion—to recreate the energy of a vintage big band sound.
