DJ Mam - nome artístico do DJ, produtor e compositor carioca Marco Aurélio Marinho - já esteve a frente de projetos como Brazilian Lounge e Estudando o Som, mas atualmente se dedica ao Sotaque Carregado, nome do disco e do coletivo que, sob a batuta de Mam, toca temas de batida afro-brasileira como Coco de Itaparica, Colorissom, Cuz Cuz de Canô (tributo à recentemente falecida Dona Canô, matriarca da família que gerou Caetano Veloso e Maria Bethânia), Iemanjá Carioca e Ogun Oni Irê. Sotaque Carregado, CD produzido por Mam com Alex Moreira, dá tom cosmopolita ao groove dos tambores que ressoam nos terreiros do Brasil.

DJ MAM took his time, navigating through Brazilian seas, rivers and backroads, researching and recording a multitude of spoken and sonic accents from across the massive country. This voyage of discovery ignited the production of his first solo album ‘Sotaque Carregado’ (Heavy Accent) released in Brazil in December 2012. The project was very well received locally, being indicated to the Brazilian Music Award 2013, and has been getting international recognition, reaching the top 20 of the World Music Charts Europe, and securing invitations for performances in London, Lisbon, Copenhagen and Cape Verde in the last two years. Last summer, MAM disembarked at Roskilde Festival and Viva Brasil Festival Amsterdam lands with his own ‘Sound System Caravel’ to display Brazil’s rich musical and cultural diversity. "I was very pleased that our 'sound-ship' presented to the audience our unique blend of musical anthropophagy ” – says MAM.
To produce Sotaque Carregado, MAM crisscrossed Brazil by plane, car, bus, donkey and ferryboat, from Rio to Belém (Pará) via Ouro Preto (Minas Gerais), Salvador (Bahia) and Olinda (Pernambuco), visiting homes, tribes, bars, arenas and dancefloors, anywhere music was played. Throughout his journeys, MAM digitally collected an amazing cornucopia of sounds, rhythms and folk traditions. The project’s tracks run the gamut between Ijexá, Funk Carioca, Carimbó, Tecnobrega, Baião, Côco, Xote, Samba de Roda, Afrobeat, Disco, Reggae, Dancehall, Moombathon, Dubstep and Rock, creating a seamless mesh of original sonic permutations.

The project is rounded up by a stellar team of Rio’s top musicians such as singer Aleh (Garrafieira/Banda Black Rio), André Bala Bala (Rio Maracatu/ Maracutaia), Marcos Moletta (Forróçacana/Moraes Moreira), Valdi Afonjah (Kaosnavial/Jorge Mautner) and VJ Ratón in charge of the show’s imagery. This ultra-talented A-team reflect all the beauty and the pain emanating from Brazil’s Favelas, Sub-Urban areas, ‘Terreiros’ (Afro-Brazilian religious yards), and the unique popular/folkloric musical manifestations that make Brazil such a unique and rich musical source.
The project opens with ‘Ogun Oni Irê’, written in collaboration with Bahian spiritual percussionist Yomar Asoba, member of Salvador’s important religious center ‘Mãe Meninha do Gantois’. Featuring vocals by Rita Benedditto, congas by acclaimed percussionist Laudir Oliveira and horns by Rodrigo Sha, the song is a tribute to King of Irê, and denotes how central African culture is in MAM’s work, coming from from Michael Jackson’s pop, Manu Dibango’s Afrobeat and the grooves from Afro-Brazilian religious traditions.
Featured tracks include ‘Cuzcuz de Canô’, MAM’s homage to Dona Canô, mother of Brazilian legends Caetano Veloso and Maria Bethânia, which includes a vocal sample of her vocie. ‘Colorissom’, ‘Strip Cabocla’, ‘Sambarimbó’, ‘Côco de Itaparica’ and ‘Poção de Amor’ bring together the musicality of states such as Minas Gerais, Pará, Bahia, Pernambuco and Rio de Janeiro. Afro-Brazilian ancestral roots are present in ‘Pra Balançar a Nega’ (inspired by Gilberto Gil’s Xóte-Reggae esthetics) and ‘Eu Tô Com Fome’, MAM’s first original composition written over 30 years ago. Produced on a Funk Carioca beat, the song depicts the battle between art and fear - where Art always wins. MC Rafael Nike introduces the duel interpreted by MAM and BNegão, and shares Beatbox duties with producer Alex Moreira from Bossacucanova.
As a true Brazilian seaman, DJ MAM is a devotee of Iemanjá, the goddess of the sea. To defend Carioca's River against the polution, MAM created a new divine image in the form of the ‘Iemanjá Carioca’ (Rio’s Iemanjá), daughter of the mythology of Rio’s original occupants, the Tomoio tribe, and African Yoruba traditions.
