Bonde Do Role sign with Domino


Bonde Do Role of Curitiba, Brazil have signed to Domino Records.

The band's first release for their new label will be a single - 'Solta O Frango' - released April 9th, to be followed with an album sometime in May.

First though, the party trio discovered by Diplo will release an album through the wicked fresh French deej's label Mad Decent on January 22nd.

The band had this to say about the recent events:

"It's funny that we have signed exactly with Domino 'cause the first time we went to Europe, Gorky said that if one day Domino invite us to join their cast, he would have one of his dreams coming true, and we all agreed with that..and now... IT'S TRUE!!!"

I've found that recently with Brazilian bands. All punctuation and no breathing space.

Bonde Do Role play at London Dingwalls on the February 20th in support of label mates Junior Boys.

If you gals and guys only knew what "Solta o Frango" really means...

Solte esse frango, galera!

Video for "Solta O Frango" is right here. And no, I won't translate the lyrics. At least for now.

[jaxxalude]

Advance copy already here. Listened to, analyzed, dissected. It's difficult for it to not become the dirty fun album of the year, much in the same way the Spank Rock album was last year. Simply put: whoever doesn't feel the need to shake their hips in the most provocative way as soon as this hits the speakers is quite dead inside!

DUMMY MONTHLY

'most of our rhymes contain loads of perverted sex jokes!'
bonde do role will make you feel like a prude

Bonde do Role are three young Brazilians who sample big dumb-arse beats from the 80s and shout filthy lyrics over the top. Not what you’d call your average Domino signing perhaps, but quite possibly an inspired one. The hugely infectious party-racket made by MCs Marina Ribatski and Pedro D'eyrot plus DJ Rodrigo Gorky is an irreverent introduction to the mightily booming Miami bass-like sound of parties in Rio: funk carioca, sometimes known as baile funk.

'The literal translation of baile funk is funk ball,' explains Marina. 'It came from the poor people who live in Rio and throw these huge parties where you have like 15 different acts in one night.' BdR are now spreading this sound around the world but despite the success of fellow Brazilians and good mates CSS, the band remain stunned by attention in the UK. 'For us to sign with Domino and be touring all around the world doesn't seem real most of the time. I thought it would be easier for a Brazilian band to win the lottery…' she gasps.

MIA-collaborator Diplo picked up on their chaotic, sexually charged racket a year ago, signing them to his Mad Decent label in the US. Not bad for a trio who started out in their native Curitiba in 2005 as something as a joke. 'We were supposed to be an electro rock band called Géssica Quer Dançar [Jessica wants to dance],' remembers D'eyrot, 'but we got some vodkas in on the first rehearsal and our first songs ended up being funk cariocas with really dirty lyrics.'

This 'who gives a fuck, let’s have a laugh' attitude, along with a self-awareness of the utter shambolic absurdity of what they’re concocting, is what makes BdR irresistible. Sure, it’s dumb, and they know it – but it’s fun and sexy. Gorky happily pilfers samples 2 Many DJs-style from the likes of Alice in Chains and AC/DC to Prince and Tone Loc, while Marina and D'eyrot shout their filth down the mike like a couple of mischievous kids who’ve just learnt how to say 'cunt'. 'Most of our rhymes contain loads of perverted sexual jokes,' Marina reveals. But is she as perverted as their lyrics? She giggles. 'That is too personal to answer.'

For all of you that like this s**t, u should listen to the real thing, not 3 white boys trying to do funk....

But they don't go out saying they do the real thing. They're the first ones coming out, admitting they're middle class brats with an art school background. And the final result reflects it.
And for the record, as early as 1982, middle class art school British brats like Malcolm McLaren and the Art Of Noise were already doing their own take on the then emergent American street sounds of electro and hip-hop. And nowadays, everybody in the hip-hop and electronic scenes recognizes how great their work was. Really, as long as I don't smell some bullshit pose a mile away, I couldn't care less where they come from.

THIS is called tongue-in-cheekiness. Sense of humor, if you will.
