Bonde Do Role



Solta O Frango

(Domino Records)

Buzz Track: Solta O Frango

Having seen this Brazilian group live, it was interesting to hear them on record. Their live show involved a heap of jumping around, loads of shouting and some amazing banging beats, and a hell of a lot of fun. And if Diplo says they're the shit, then you¹d better believe that's exactly what they are.

Picked up by Domino Records, Bonde have chosen a song which is translated as being Release The Chickens, and is an order for everyone to get up and party, not that you'd know that unless you speak Portugese which I don't. That said, I don't need to be told when listening to this song, the sharp snaps and "Ole" style chorus had me out of my seat and pretending it was Carnival time in Streatham after 10 seconds.

With an album coming out in May this year, Bonde Do Role are going to be a name on everyone lips. If you don't find yourself listening to this in the middle of the summer then there is something seriously wrong with you. Get that ghetto blaster out and get ready for one of the loudest, danciest records of 2007. Abjekt.
