Lincoln Olivetti

**Lincoln Olivetti** was a Brazilian keyboardist, arranger, and producer who became a driving force in the country’s 1970s and ’80s disco, funk, and soul scenes. Alongside collaborator Robson Jorge, Olivetti crafted a signature blend of samba-funk grooves, shimmering synths, and lush orchestral arrangements that defined the era’s dance floors. Their work—like the hypnotic "Aleluia" and groove-heavy "Babilônia Rock"—showcased a slick fusion of Brazilian rhythms and international disco flair, earning them cult status among crate-diggers and retro music lovers.

Though not a household name globally, Olivetti’s influence echoes through samples in modern hip-hop and electronic music, and his collaborations (like *Robson Jorge e Lincoln Olivetti*) remain sought-after vinyl gems. Releases like *Suspira* and *Mariá* highlight his knack for merging cinematic atmospheres with danceable beats, while remixes (like DJ Meme’s spins on "Aleluia") keep his legacy fresh. An unsung hero of Brazil’s boogie-funk era, Olivetti’s productions still ooze warmth, sophistication, and that timeless *balanço* vibe.
