Tuga Beat: Beats and Songs from Portugal!
Retimbrar, "one of the most exciting live groups in Portuguese music" (in Blitz), is a collective of musicians from Porto, founded in 2008. Inspired by traditional portuguese rhythms, songs and percussion instruments, they have developed original music with the aim of creating bridges between the past and the future. They started a partnership with Casa da Música in 2010 which, in 2016, culminated in the edition of their debur album, "Voa Pé". They toured the country, between festivals and concert halls, collaborated with renowned artists and groups linked to folklore and popular music, to whom they owe a good part of their labour. These collaborations are the basis of their next album, "Levantar do Chão", which saw the light of day on September 2022. In Sérgio Godinho's words, Retimbrar is “an ambitious and effective project, terribly effective, (…) which points us into the center of our land and the width of the world.”
