Five centuries later, the vitality of terreiros (ritual grounds) across the country bears witness to a living and adaptive religion that continues to evolve while remaining deeply rooted in ancestral traditions.

What emerges is a porous sonic territory shaped by memory, landscape, and experiment…

When we listened to the compilation for the first time, we were pleasantly surprised by its d…
