Brazil has long been seen as a cauldron of cultures and this is certainly the case in its music from sambas mixing of European and African influences in the 1930s to tropicália adding western pop and regional music into the mix in the 70s. The new generation continue this trend making fearless music that is impossible to classify and even more impossible not to love. With the internet connecting Brazils big cities with the rest of the world and even rural areas of Brazil todays artists incorporate a myriad of African indigenous Western Brazilian kitsch and avant-garde influences into their sound and still manage to retain their Brazilian identity.
