Following last year’s summer classic – the jazz-funk-infused Zaiana – Darksidevinyl & Ucha reunite for a new offering brimming with festival flair. The two have established a sterling reputation for powerful global grooves, releasing chart-topping numbers on the likes of Connected Frontline, Deepalma, and Monaberry.

Marking their return to TOR, Darksidevinyl & Ucha harness Brazileiro beats and riveting rhythms on Samba Do Brazil. Punchy percussions call the hips into motion, as the track opens into a flowing sun-drenched groover. Serene Portuguese vocal chops ebb & flow, offering sensational dancefloor moments, while horns & piano riffs balance synthetic kicks. An early nod for song of the summer.

To celebrate the release of Samba Do Brazil, we sat down with Darksidevinyl and Ucha on their return to TOR!

Ucha: Thanks for having us again guys.

 

WWD: Was there a primary source of inspiration for this tune? A particular person, place, or sound?

Mido:  Inspiration for this tune comes from Greece because my home front in beautiful mountains reminds me of Brazil.
