Book on Disco history in Brazil
This book will appeal more to Brazilians as it tells the story of the most important Brazilian Disco DJs. The ad written by Erika Brand„o says (roughly) this:
The book TODO DJ JA SAMBOU tells a story that many brazilians live, but few know about its beginnings: it tells the story of dance music, a style which brought together all those who love the nightlife. The book shows who helped to spread the turntable culture in Brazil, who built our Hacienda, our Paradise Garage, our Homelands, our Tresor, our Love Parade.
Who was the first brazilian DJ? Who enlarged the legion of club goers through radio and TV programs? Who was connected with the rest of the world and began to import records to show us new music coming from the dance floors of New York and Europe? Who began remixing commercial pop dance music and ended winning respect from the clubbers?
The author creates a journey through time since pre-disco to the disco era, up to the present, rich in details.
