Kassin + 2 is the new portrait of Rio’s rich musical, cultural and ethnic diversity. The final installment in the + 2 trilogy — fellow band members Moreno Veloso (son of the great Caetano) and Domenico Lancellotti were the featured names for the first two rounds — this is the vanguard of a new generation of Brazilian musicians. Heirs to a family heritage of Tropicalia and Samba and respected producers in their own right, this unique mix of traditional Brazilian songwriting with the quirky beats, loops, and noises of contemporary electronica is defining the sound of New Brazil.
