oh vampiressnessesnnesesen....you hit my weak spot with those vids! MAn, i love brazil. i even speak portuguese! i've been down there three times...the first time was to study percussion in Salvador da Bahia...most recently a year and a half ago to the south - Florianopolis - for a friend's wedding. The traditions down there are intense - such a wonderful and exotic collection of people, music, and haha - wahine of course :wink: If you listen, there are little brazilian blurbs throughout waitiki - the berimbau on Tiki, the pandeiro and non-cha-cha bossa groove on Manila...hoping to work some maracatu' into some upcoming tunes. I just gave a tambourine and percussion workshop to a bunch of high school kids and tried to explain to them why the pandeiro (brazilian tambourine) is my favorite instrument. i think they probably thought i was wack.

they were right!
