Hi, pals! We are very excited about the release of the Let's do the Samba! first single. We know that will be four songs in this work, one of them entirely new! It will be sing in portuguese and will tell about Omolu, hunger and sugar cane. The other three are remixes of songs from Let's do the Samba! album. Gargântula, that reached 9.000 downloads at Internet Archive is one of them...
Set your clocks...The release of the single will happen today (may, 1th). Check our blog soon for the new stuff!
The release of Maghma music video, at brazilian indians day (celebrated seven days ago), was marked by the april, 22 São Vicente earthquake. The april, 22 is a very important date in our country. In 1500, at the same date, the portuguese caravels had come to Brazil. Bringing to the indians all sort of addictions, plagues, diseases and wounds made by fire guns. And to the Earth, big, big scars made by precious stones and gold mining. And, by the other side, bringing to the "discovered" savage lands of Brazil some progress and very comfortable stuff for most of civilized humans, like religion, electricity, cars and pollution. Nowadays the Atlantic Forest, one of the most beautiful and diverse of our hemisphere, is practically dead. Remains less than 3% from entire vegetation and fauna. Many mountains of São Paulo south coast are covered by banana trees. There's no native vegetation anymore. And the natives... well, they are almost totally dead, too. The federal government made the lands demarcation for some tribes but the business men want to take it all! Killing the indians and putting down the trees to plant sugar canes, soybeans and grass for the cows...May this earthquake can be a signal to make us stop for a moment and think about it. We are very solidary to the people injured during this natural event and would like to say that is still hope...if we'd really believe that we can change the world!
For you, we present the new video made by 666 rmx for the Maghma tune, from Let's do the Samba! album. It's an extended and brand new version of the song, with some kinda of "voodoo-western trance" in the middle. The word Nhacunhé is a gibberish improvised by Mauricio at first vocal recording takes and this is how it remained at this version. "It's a scream, a war scream", says Mauricio, from HI-BRAZIL.
"It's like, you know, we are indians, our country is the Planet Earth, our tribe is humanity and our religion is the Nature. So, we can't stand anymore with your commandments and stuff and we will spread our scream", explains, with a grin. "There are these genetics stuff, too, that was on my mind on the moment of the recording. They are collecting blood from natives across the world and getting it for themselves through the patents they are requiring over all that genetic information. Because they discovered that native americans has a "particular" genetic code, a very ancient one... The appropriation of all this creation codes is part from Genoma Project".
Meanwhile, at São Vicente, described by Wikipedia as the first Portuguese permanent settlement in the Americas and the first capital of the Captaincy of São Vicente, now the state of São Paulo, there are a tribe of natives that reconquered the right to live at Paranapuã Beach. But the place is an ecological reserve and the native people can't do fish, plant or hunt in the area. So, they are surviving collecting rests of fruits and verdures in open-air markets or then receiving basic nutritional food from the mayor of the city. Now they are involved in cases of alcoholism, violence and suicides. They want to come back to Nature. But the white man don't. And will not give permission to them for it.
São Vicente was established as a proper village in 1532 by Martim Afonso de Sousa on what was then the Porto dos Escravos (port of the slaves), operated by three Portuguese colonists who trafficked on slaves captured by allied tribes, São Vicente is titled Cellula Mater (Mother Cell) of Brazil for being the first organized town in the country. The first City Council of all the Americas was democratically elected and established in São Vicente on August 22, 1532.
So, it's what we had to say at Indians Day. It's time for independence. There's still hope...We'd like to thank the actress, Rosa, for her love and confidence.
Hello, friends! The 666 rmx and HI-BRAZIL boys are working hard on production of their new video for the tune Maghma, from Let's do the Samba! album. The music received a brand new extended version and the piece will participate on the Video Indio Brasil 2008 contest, that begins at may, 24. The release of the video will happen at april, 19, a special date for real brazilian people, when we celebrate the Indians Day. You can watch the video at our homepage or our youtube channel.
The storyplay tells about a little indian girl forced to live between captives of a farm in Amazonic Forest. In her pre-adolescence, she was taken away by a couple of colons whose wish was to try better luck at some big city and she knows for the first time the horrors and sadness of the "civilized" way of life. She learned new things, forgot many others. But, in her interior, still was that little simple girl that could know by heart the flavor of juicy fruits taken right of the branches of the trees, and the secrets of the healing herbs.
The years gone by and Rosa, this way called by the couple that "adopted" her, had joined - not without some struggle - to the new reality that was revealed. She get married, had children and grandchildren and, as a modern and urban woman, started to live surrounded by electronic machines and technological gadgets. And then she felt solitude. Laptops, ipods, monitors and cellulars became her new companions and to them she gave the names that she used to call the little forest animals that sometimes did come to play with her, during the happy years living on farm.
A certain day, while she was preparing a special herbs infusion, known only by her, she received an unexpected video chat call. Curious and fearless, she accepted the invite to chat with the mysterious guy that was waiting at the other side of the liquid crystal screen of her laptop. From this moment on, her life would be change in a radical way once more. And, this time, for ever...
The 3 guys from 666 rmx just can't stop working with all this sun around. It's some kind of joyful restless pleasure...And now they want to share it with you...C'mon, HI-BRAZIL, it's time for Rosetta's pixels and bytes!

Ualluh! Once again, the kindness of MuzicHunter, from mp34U, has no limits...See what he said about Gargântula, after taking off the headphones:
"Irradiated meats come to life, dancing with ghosts of polar bears and genetically modified tomatoes that talk. McNewscasters gawk bewildered as teleprompters run amok. Critters frolick to the psychedlic trance samba sounds of HI-BRAZIL".
Well, Mr MuzicHunter, it sounds like if a little bird had told you what's going on in our imagery laboratories right now...
There are some rumors on the net that the HI-BRAZIL bananas that are being shared around the Globe by our spacey rocket had grew in soils of China, an oriental country where the fruit are known as "killer banana", since an another rumor spread all over the net, about a dangerous virus planted on the core of the fruits. Well, we have to say that it's a misunderstood! Our bananas are Nature-growing old style, open to adapt theirselves to weather changes, hungry insects or beautiful colony of fungi.
Well...the Nature-made propaganda to promote the 666 rmx videoclip for Let's do the Samba! seem to be working well. Last week, the HI-BRAZIL rocket dropped down thousands of bananas over two Dutch North Sea islands. A half-mile stretch of beach on Terschelling island, 70 miles north of Amsterdam, was littered with bunches of unripe fruit, Buren said. Bananas also washed up on neighboring Ameland island. "I think everybody on the island has a bunch now," said Gossen Buren, a shipping official at the local lighthouse.
Yes, Mr. Buren, we have bananas! We got plenty of them!!!
...though, we came just in time to see the blessed gestures and feel the inner power of her at the sacred fire rites. Stay tuned! We will post many pictures and impressions of the wanderlustic adventure from 666 rmx.
...living detached from reality makes U feel that U don't exist. Up to this point we are entering the scenario where only the beauty exists. Earth, Wind, Water and Fire are preparing the most conscious part of our cells to a big change, a greater impact coming from the absolute will reach us soon...very soon!
At first sight, visualized by Google Earth, the path to the Curitiba's sacred stone pit seem to be full of nature's smiles. But the view on the road is very weird. From Peruíbe to the boarders of Paraná the ancient and native trees gave place to plantations and grass for the cows. The Araucaria trees simply disapeared. A sign from human's innocence and greed. "It's time to learn, earn, burn, it's time to go!", said a guy from 666 rmx, after throw out the window an empty banana peel. "It's organic!!!", he realize. "It's consciousness".
The lion, the bear and the leopard just arrived at Curitiba. The trip took 4h50 and was full of surprises. We were surrounded by bananas all the time. Hills and hills of banana plantations. Their eyes were so filled with it that they decided to stop at the road and buy some dozens. Is incredible how banana culture is strong in Brazil, besides not to be a brazilian fruit. It was taken by the portuguese and english people, and the natives and africans, as slaves, were the people that made it grown up.
Hello everybody! Right now the guys from 666 rmx are leaving Itaquitanduva quarry and putting their feet - and wheels - on the road right to another quarry in Curitiba, Brazil. Stay tuned to this epic adventure at The HI-BRAZIL Blog. One of the members from 666 rmx said 30 seconds ago, that it will be a trip full of love and surrounded by emotional landscapes...
