Our Curation Philosophy
We deliberately avoid mainstream Brazilian pop to:  

1. Preserve authenticity by highlighting raw, DIY productions  
2. Challenge stereotypes about Brazilian music beyond samba/bossa nova  
3. Build bridges between global underground scenes (e.g., connecting Lisbon's prankster community with Rio's funk artists)  

Expanded Reach 
Our radio platform has evolved into a **multi-format hub: 

 
- Weekly Live Shows: Resident DJs + guest takeovers  
- On-Demand Archive: 200+ hours of rare recordings

- Collaborative Zines: Pairing audio content with visual art and essays  

Why It Matters

- Provides documentation of ephemeral underground movements  
- Creates economic opportunities for non-commercial artists  
- Serves as a research resource for musicologists and journalists  
- Maintains cultural memory as gentrification displaces local scenes
