Banda Black Rio

I came across this video while doing research for my reading report assignment on Brazilian Funk. This video is an example of funk based around Rio de Janeiro that draws heavily on disco and hip hop from the United States. Notice the heavy use of bass and how the brass instruments carry the melody of the song. Die-hard fans of old school 70's funk will be sure to appreciate this.
