  • Passion Brésil

    Je suis depuis quelque temps leur podcasts. Un duo formidable avec une passion, celle de partager de la musique brésilienne hors des sentiers battus. Ils brassent un panorama de ce qui ce fait maintenant comme musique dans ce presque continent. Chaque podcast ayant un thème ou une ligne conductrice. Depuis peu ils nous régalent avec la version portu-espagnole en direct de Barcelona. Caipirinha à déguster sans modération!
