Background notes
Archive material and source history
Makunaíma Joe came out of São Paulo in the early 2000s. Their first album, simply called 'Makunaíma Joe,' arrived in 2004. The band's sound pulled from Afro-Brazilian rhythms and psychedelic rock, a mix that felt fresh at the time.
Their 2008 album 'Antônimo' is what most people remember them for. The title track became a kind of anthem, and songs like 'Distante' and 'Fim de Noite' showed their range.
They kept putting out records after that, like 'Aurora' in 2011 and 'Aether' in 2019. Their later work incorporated more electronic textures. The frontman was Léo Maia, with Felipe Machado on guitar and Pedro Lobo on bass.
