Thanks
I would like to thank all of my Batuque family for helping me out with this project; Phillipos Muito Tempo Haile, Xochitl Estrada, Louise Budinha Mcarthy, Miguel Coleman, Gisella Ferreira, Kara Moramarco, Anas Sahibi, Akiko Nishio, Eugene Leu Draine Mahmoud, Saehee Kim, Toni Chai, Erica Lynn Blyther, and Monica Garcia. Special thanks to Ivan Surfista Barnas that have musically produced this CD with love and great energy, and to Paul Kelly, Larson Grama, and Sebi Mico Ryffel who helped me so much with this website. Also, much thanks to Phil Hacker for his encouragement and time invested in helping me develop the concept of this CD. This project would not be possible without the great inspiration I was blessed to have from Contra Mestre Mariano, Mestre Pernalonga Contra Mestre Pernalonga, my brother in capoeira Muito Tempo, and of course, my mestre- Mestre Amen Santo. Not only has his drumming and music been an inspiration to me but his open heart and generosity with his time and attention have taught me so much. Also, great thanks to Nayla Santo for her open heart, good advice, and encouragement- I am blessed to have you in my life. Finally I would like to give thanks for the BBCC and Nayla and Amen as its directors for letting me use the space, but more so for their dedication to the center. Thank you for your commitment to keeping this wonderful space of learning and creativity open to us all, a place which allowed me to meet all these beautiful people.
One More Thing
Since we are in an age of advance technology and an environmental crisis, I have decided to release this CD online for now. This way you are helping the environment and you can get the music without the wrapping and the CD-ROM which some people do not use anymore. Down below you will find a way to buy the songs and download them to you computer. FOR THOSE WHO COPIED THE CD FROM A FRIEND you will see a DONATE bottom below as well so you can donate whatever you can. If you like the music, feel free to leave a comment.
