"The Sound of Novo Rock Gaúcho" captures the evolving edge of southern Brazil’s rock scene, blending indie rock, punk, psychedelia, and regional influences into a playlist that moves between raw energy and introspective textures. Pulling from a wide range of acts, from the gritty riffs of Rebel Machine and Rooster Punk Rock to the genre-melding creativity of Musa Híbrida and Ian Ramil, the lineup highlights how diverse the modern rock produced in Rio Grande do Sul has become.
This collection puts a spotlight on both long-standing names like Vera Loca and Fresno, as well as newer voices such as Erick Endres, Santiago Neto y Los Misionerotrónicos, and Bife Simples. Lyrically personal, rhythmically diverse, and sonically experimental, the playlist reflects the DIY ethos of a scene that's constantly redefining itself. Whether it's the cinematic feel of Gelpi’s “Spaceships” or the nostalgic punk drive of Rooster Punk Rock’s “Virar a Página,” there’s a consistent sense of local identity with a global ear.
