    ...... .. STEREO MARACANÃ.. is a group of four musicians from Rio de Janeiro who have found a way of expressing their dreams and dissatisfaction with the power structures of an excluding society through music. Stereo Maracanã’s goal is to integrate the medium they represent into society, combining popular culture from hip-hop to funk and Capoeira with a sophisticated electronic multi-layered and solid groove. They believe that through their musical work and a repertoire committed to fighting racial prejudice they can inspire their listeners to appreciate the day-to-day realities of people who are constantly struggling for the basic rights of food, work, decent housing, health and leisure. Stereo Maracanã describe themselves as a Rio de Janeiro rap group committed to musical experimentation. Their point of departure is combining drum machines with rills of hip-hop grooves, lots of percussion (playing mainly instruments used in the brazilian fighting dance “Capoeira”, like the Berimbau and the Atabaque) and poetry. The Stereo Maracanã partnership with the Maianga Discos label resulted in the release of the group's first CD - Combatente. Recently, their song “Freestyle Love” was included in several compilations , like Mr Bongo’s “Brazilian Beats 5” , Wagram's french compliation "Brazilectro-Latin Flavoured Club Tubes", and the “Radio latina Brésil” compliation.The banda toured Europe in 2007 and 2008, performing at Popkomm festival in Berlin; The Brazilian cinema festival in Paris; the Guanabara , in London; The Komedia, in Brighton(UK). In Brazil, Stereo Maracanã performed in big festivals like Abril Pro Rock( In Recife-Pernambuco) and Humaitá pra Peixe(Rio de Janeiro), and collaborated with several artists like the carioca funk queen Fernanda Abreu and Mr Catra. The band is now producing their second album, entitled "Mentalidade Safari", mixing african rhythms with capoeira and hip hop, making a blend that provides the tenacity of organized soccer fans, joyously indignant, asking life for a better score... ..STEREO MARACANÃ.. está na ativa desde o ano de 2002, quando lançou seu disco de estréia, “Combatente”, que teve como destaque as performances ao vivo em comunidades do Rio de Janeiro em um ônibus-palco construído pela banda. A sonoridade do grupo, investindo em uma mistura de capoeira com hip hop e batidas eletrônicas agradou tanto no Brasil quanto no exterior. Músicas do Stereo Maracanã foram selecionadas para diversas compilações sobre música brasileira, a mais famosa delas sendo o hit “Freestyle love”, que entrou na seleção do CD “Brazilian Beats 5”, do selo inglês Mr Bongo, abrindo as portas da Europa para os cariocas do STM, que participou dos mais importantes festivais do Brasil ( Abril Pro Rock e Demo Sul, entre outros) e em 2007 foi convidado para se apresentar na Popkomm em Berlim, na Alemanha.

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT NOT SETTLING ...

    "DON'T SETTLE for LESS.

    DON'T SETTLE for someone YOU DON'T LIKE as your partner.

    DON'T SETTLE for a JOB you don’t like.

    DON'T SETTLE for "friends" who make you feel like a lesser person.

    DON'T SETTLE for a LIFE you are UNHAPPY WITH.

    GO FOR what you REALLY WANT.

    STRIVE FOR the BEST – you don’t deserve anything

    LESS THAN THAT."

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT THE SPIRIT OF LOVE  ...

    "You will find as you look back upon your LIFE

    that the MOMENTS when you have REALLY LIVED

    are the MOMENTS when you have DONE THINGS

    in the SPIRIT OF LOVE."

    ~ Henry Drummond

    THERE ARE FOUR QUESTIONS OF VALUE IN LIFE.

    WHAT IS SACRED?  OF WHAT IS THE SPIRIT MADE?

    WHAT IS WORTH LIVING FOR, AND WHAT IS WORTH

    DYING FOR?  THE ANSWER TO EACH IS THE SAME.

    ONLY LOVE.

    With LOVE, RESPECT, and PEACE my friend,

    Richard

STEREO MARACANÃ
is a group of four musicians from Rio de Janeiro who have found a way of expressing their dreams and dissatisfaction with the power structures of an excluding society through music. The name Stereo Maracanã was chosen because of the mediums influence on the creation of their sound (Stereo) and added the name of Brazil’s largest soccer stadium (Maracanã) as a reference to mass culture. Stereo Maracanã’s dream is to integrate the medium they represent into society, combining popular culture from hip-hop to funk and Capoeira with a sophisticated electronic multi-layered and solid groove. They believe that through their musical work and a repertoire committed to fighting racial prejudice they can inspire their listeners to appreciate the day-to-day realities of people who are constantly struggling for the basic rights of food, work, decent housing, health and leisure.
