(from Rio) MAGA BO at OuterWORLDLY

10pm $5 before 11pm and $10 after
21+ drink specials
with the Worker and Janaka Selekta open with global tech and breakbeats..
Based in Rio de Janeiro, Maga Bo is a DJ/producer working with an international collision of styles, sounds, location recordings from all continents and beats that are hard to classify. A study in the digital contortions of transnational breakbeat based bass music, his sound is an amalgamation of batucada, rai, capoeira, bhangra, loudspeaker jitter and skewed electronic beats in a borderless alley of gritty street sounds, found, stolen and modified rhythms and melodies from Brazil, Morocco, India and beyond.
His performances are a hybrid mix of DJ set and a live PA where pirate cassettes bought on the street in various parts of the world, MP3s from the internet, obscure vinyl found in underground shops meet original beats, unreleased remixes and exclusive tracks.
