Archive material and source history
Quarto Mundo was a Brazilian ensemble that formed in Natal in 1982. They're best known for their song "África," which gained international attention in the 1980s. The track had a haunting quality that resonated with listeners far beyond Brazil.
Their lineup included Caetano Veloso, Gilberto Gil, Gal Costa, and Tom Zé, each bringing distinct musical backgrounds to the group. They released their self-titled debut album in 1982.
While "África" became their most recognized work, the group recorded several albums before eventually dissolving. Their music blended various Brazilian styles with the individual approaches of its members, creating something that didn't sound quite like anything else happening at the time.
