Editor's note

CESF's off-kilter electropop and São Paulo roots

A Brazilian band that mixes punk, dancehall, and tropicalia into catchy, experimental songs.

For a quick sense of their sound, try 'Dúvidas' or 'Nha way'. They're both catchy but built on something a little weirder.

CESF's music matters because it never settles into one lane. Their 2003 album 'Agar Agar' brought them wider attention with its blend of electropop, indie rock, and experimental touches. Songs like 'Dúvidas' show their knack for wrapping catchy melodies in off-kilter arrangements.

Formed in São Paulo in the late 1990s, CESF built their sound around loops and samples rather than conventional structures. They kept recording through controversy, putting out albums like 'Lixo do Século' in 2006 and 'Planta' in 2019.

CESF, short for Cansei de Ser Fofo, formed in São Paulo in the late 1990s. Their 2003 album 'Agar Agar' brought them wider attention with its mix of electropop, indie rock, and experimental touches. The band's lineup has included Ana Rezende on vocals, Ismael Caneppele on guitar, Leandro Lima on bass, and Rodrigo Lemos on drums.

Their music pulls from punk, dancehall, and Brazilian tropicalia, often built around loops and samples rather than conventional structures. Songs like 'Dúvidas' and 'Nha way' show their knack for catchy melodies wrapped in off-kilter arrangements.

In 2006, their song 'O Amor É Queer' drew protests from the Catholic Church and led to some cancelled shows. They kept recording through it, putting out albums like 'Lixo do Século' in 2006 and 'Planta' in 2019.
