Editor's note

Casa Bizantina, São Paulo's experimental sound collective

A Brazilian group blending electronica, rock, and local rhythms since the late '90s.

For a first listen, try 'A Distância' or 'Deus e Os Dois Mundos', they frame that blend of atmosphere and rhythm pretty well.

They carved out a space where Brazilian music met electronic experimentation, with tracks like 'A Distância' showing their knack for moody, textured grooves. Their collaborations with figures like Chico Buarque and Arnaldo Antunes placed them in a lineage of São Paulo's adventurous artists. The 2011 song 'Arte da Guerra' became their most recognizable piece, a slow-burn electronic anthem that stuck around.

They started in 1998 as a São Paulo collective, releasing a self-titled debut in 2000 that mixed electronica and rock. By 2006's '3', they were leaning harder into electronic territory, and 'Arte da Guerra' in 2011 gave them a signature track.
