Episode 450 marks a special milestone for us, and I couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate than by passing the torch to the next generation. This week I’m joined by Trinity, an up-and-coming local selector with a deep love for Brazilian music and the warmth of vinyl culture. You can catch her every 2nd Wednesday spinning happy-hour sets at Madrone Art Bar, where she brings the same uplifting energy she shares on today’s show.
Her all-Brazilian selection — spanning MPB, psychedelia, manguebeat, modern indie, and rhythmic gems from across eras — adds a fresh spark to the session while honoring the roots that inspire us both.
From Chico Science to Bala Desejo, Legião Urbana to Tagua Tagua, Trinity’s set is a lush dive into the many colors of Brazilian sound. I’m grateful to celebrate episode 450 this way—with vibrant music, good energy, and the feeling that a legacy continues.
