Also very good:
Candombe: all about a rich Afro-Uruguayan rhythmic tradition. Listen to this!

This website is a must see for lovers of South American rhythms. Thanks to Producer Neil Weiss for the link. We're listening to all the CDs now, and reviews are forthcoming, but it's WAY serious rhythm.

Afro-Peruvian Classics: The Soul Of Black Peru
Our favorite album right now.

Lush, beautiful Peruvian music...with a refinement and sophistication like few other musics.

Listen| Buy it!

To learn about the rhythm culture of Brazil, one must look into the Art of Capoeira. Capoeira is a form of Martial Art practiced in Brazil, with a spiritual outlook and roots in Africa and Colonial Brazil. It's a fascinating history.

Brief History of Capoeira

Best traditional Capoeira CD:
Capoeira Angola
From Salvador
Brazil

ahh, Brazilian and South American rhythm. What a rich culture! Instruments like the BERIMBAU, Pandeiro, Surdo, Caxixi, Caixa, Agogo, Reco-Reco, Repinique, along with endless varieieties of wind and wood and metal, and natural percussion sounds. It all seems to evoke the lush Amazon Jungle (no, not the book store.)
