Brazilian funk samples range from bouncing tamborzão drum machine patterns to aggressive synth stabs and raw vocal chants. Originating in Rio de Janeiro during the late 1980s, Brazilian funk combined the sound of Miami bass and electro records with Afro-Brazilian rhythms. It has since evolved into a powerful voice of youth culture and social expression in Brazil with its booming low-end, rapid-fire percussion, and often-provocative lyrics.
