Archive material and source history
Negroove formed in Salvador, Bahia in the late 1990s, with Pedro Pondé on vocals, Felipe Dylon and Bruno Wanderley on guitars, Alexandre Dengue on bass, and Gilmar Bola 8 on drums. Their name suggests a mix of African rhythms with modern grooves, and their music pulls from samba, reggae, Afrobeat, and funk, often drawing on Candomblé traditions for drumming and melodies.
One of their tracks, 'Exu Aspartame,' became a pointed critique of Brazil's political and social problems, referencing the artificial sweetener aspartame as a metaphor for toxic leadership. Other songs like 'Afojazz' and 'Lady Oxum' reflect their blend of Afro-Brazilian sounds with contemporary energy.
Negroove's approach has been to weave social commentary into their rhythmic foundations, using music as a platform without softening their message. Their work stays rooted in Salvador's cultural landscape while engaging with broader themes through tracks like 'Bomba do Emeterio's explosion' and 'Disco Arranhado.'
