The Sound of Nova Música Paulista

"The Sound of Nova Música Paulista" is a deep dive into the diverse and innovative sounds coming out of São Paulo's contemporary music scene. Blending experimental samba, Afro-Brazilian rhythms, indie pop, MPB, and electronic textures, this playlist captures the creative spirit of artists who are reshaping Brazilian music today. Tracks like "Not Falling" by Anelis Assumpção, "Obatalá" by Metá Metá, and Tulipa Ruiz’s dreamy "Só Sei Dançar Com Você" set the tone for a journey that's rich in rhythm, genre fusion, and lyrical exploration.

You’ll find everything from the raw energy of Teto Preto’s "Gasolina" to the soulful grooves of Lurdez Da Luz and Stefanie’s "Andei," alongside introspective cuts like "Coração" by Bárbara Eugênia and atmospheric works like "Polaroids" from Betina Astral and Boogarins. With contributions from both established figures like Juçara Marçal and rising voices like Nina Oliveira, the playlist offers an expansive look at how tradition and experimentation collide across São Paulo today.
