BONDE DO ROLE



DIPLO
"Afew years ago, Diplo -- the genre-crushing Philadelphia DJ-producer and M.I.A. collaborator -- discovered funk carioca, the booming Miami bass-ish sound of Rio de Janeiro's shantytowns. 'It was, like, little children screaming about drugs over a Smiths loop and a breakbeat,' says Diplo, who regularly visits Brazil. 'I thought it was perfect music.' Bonde do Role, the first signing to his new Mad Decent label, have an art-school take on the sound (also known as baile funk), pairing the biggest, dumbest samples ever with comically dirty shout-rapped Portuguese lyrics..." [Rolling Stone says you better watch them] (J told me to watch them too)

Rolling Stone writes, "In complete disregard for U.S. copyright law, Bonde do Role (D'eyrot, 22, MC Marina Ribatski, 21, and producer and DJ Rodrigo Gorky, 25) pile super-recognizable samples -- AC/DC, the Grease soundtrack, Tone-Loc -- into an over-the-top party-starting mix" --FOUR SONGS STREAMING @ THEIR MYSPACE--


They have an EP. That's it pictured there to the right. It's got a Diplo remix on it, and the sleeve was designed by Nick Catchdubs.
