Well, from what I've heard it's...OK.
Don't expect anything too radical - it's more like two different genres that have been 'bolted' together and ended up sounding pretty good. Probably the most obvious thing to pick up would be the DJ Marky - Brazilian Job CD on the Movement label.
I've been listening to it quite a bit - the more obvious 'Brazilian' tracks are fairly standard D&B breaks and bass with a bit of guitar and Portugese vocals - maybe a 3-second samba loop or two thrown in as well. Some of them are quite nice, but the best track on it, if you ask me, is the J Majik Spaced Invaders remix, which is from the UK.
However, my friend, who's much more of a D&B head, would no doubt tell you that I'm talking bollocks and the whole album is the best thing since sliced bread.
If you want a slightly more inventive D&B/batucada mix then I still reckon Permutation by Amon Tobin is a really good one to check out
Dan.
