Background notes
Archive material and source history
As Esquisitonas formed in Rio de Janeiro in the early 2000s with Anna Ratto on vocals, André Gonçalves on guitar, and Rafael Rocha on drums. They started playing in underground clubs, mixing electronic beats with Brazilian rhythms. Their first album, "Esquizofrenia Tropical," came out in 2006, followed by "Piracema" in 2009.
Their song "Do The Hippogriff" from 2008 blends tropical beats with electronic textures and Ratto's vocals. They also recorded "Magic Works" and "This Is The Night." The band's style drew some criticism for being experimental and for their views on social issues.
They kept making music that combined different sounds, though they weren't always embraced by conservative audiences. Their work stayed rooted in Brazilian culture while incorporating elements from various genres.
