Background notes
Archive material and source history
Edmilton Di Bem came up in Salvador, Bahia, where the rhythms of candomblé and the emerging axé sound shaped his early years. He started singing professionally with the band A Cor do Som in 1974, and put out his first solo record simply titled 'Edmilson' five years later.
His 1982 album 'Abraçadeira' got him wider notice, but it was the track 'Os Doze Obás de Xangô' that really stuck. Released in 1983, the song draws on candomblé themes to honor the Orixás, and its melody became familiar far beyond Bahia. Other songs like 'Sacopenapã' and 'Os Saltimbancos' also became part of his set.
He kept recording through the '80s and into the early '90s, with albums like 'Axé', 'Olodum', and 'Sou Guerreiro'. The music often mixed celebration with a certain directness that didn't sit well with everyone, but it found its audience.
