Combining elements of Brazilian baile funk, Miami bass, and very recognizable samples [Debbie Deb, Alice in Chains, Tone Loc, etc.], Bonde do Role’s debut album, ‘With Lasers’, does not strive to have a pretentious sound like many of todays hip new acts try to have. Rather, it’s just fun as hell (at times cheesy) dance music to shake your stanky ass to.
Stand out tracks include ‘Caminhao De Gas’, ‘Quero Te Amar’ and ‘Marina Do Bairro’. An album clocking in at just over half an hour, this is sure to get you worked up. Here’s an experiment: turn this on at a party. Make sure the bass is all the way up & If you and your friends aren’t drenched by the end of listening to this, then there’s probably something wrong with you guys.
