This song, Maracatu do Manatim (Manatee), came out of one of my composition prompts (from my free 5-day email bite-size composition challenge) to write an ostinato about an animal.
I selected manatee, and it started out sounding like a 70s cop show, but then become infused with maracatu rhythm (from Recife, Brazil). This tune has an irresistible groove!
