iV`^c\ XZcigZ hiV\Z Being a Latin American living in London I seek to keep in tune with what happens in my community and kill off any homesickness by going to shows of Brasilian artists, Latin bars and parties, to remind me of my culture and where I’m from. There are various means of keeping in the know about Latin American events and news. I must confess that when I picked up JungleDrums for the first time, WOW! Everything you could want from a Latin publication in Europe, and the smartest thing is the style of the magazine - cool, but not pretentious; the biggest trump card, without a doubt, is its being in English and Portuguese. And now, a little about myself: from Rio, I’ve lived here for eight years [incidentally, the same amount of time Jungle’s been in print]; I’m the principal dancer of the Royal Ballet, the first Brasilian to enter the company. It’s great to share my achievements, but in truth I suffered like all dancers: in the beginning the integration in another country is really tough. As a dancer, I’d like to express my thanks for this edition, which talks about and promotes Brasilian dance around here. I think it’s important that people know we have names like Deborah Colker, who’ll be performing in June at the Barbican (see Interview, p38), founder of her own company and winner of important prizes. Like her, there are other groups, perhaps not with the same international success, but in the same way promoting Brasilian dance abroad. I’m here to express my thanks to Jungle for this space given to dance. And to all my compatriots who live in London and work in dance of all styles, I wish them the best of luck and every success!

Bloomsbury Bowling Lanes is one of Jungle’s favourite nights out, we’ve always wanted to host an event there. And so, Baby Bitch was born, our new party, the answer to all our prayers. Tell a lie. We then had the little dilemma which was, amid so much musical talent, who to pick to launch the project. Singer Marina Gasolina and DJ João Brasil you already know. They’ve already been performing here and there around London (and once together on the same night), João firing out his ridiculously irresistible mashups of baile funk, axé and pop. Marina’s already launched her solo project back in April – real rock'n'roll – none of the funk carioca of before, but with the same helpings of on stage insanity and intensity. But it will be the first time the delicate voice of Leo Cavalcanti sounds out live in Europe. Son of composer Péricles Cavalcanti, he considers his music to be music therapy. “It’s not intentional, but it turned out that my compositions have a strong therapeutic function for me. It ends up being heavily existential and following movements of absolute necessity for transformation and of the search for truth”, Leo explains. His influences only reinforce this idea: “I take a lot of influence from Spanish flamenco, from Arabic and Hindi music (beyond popular Brasilian and world music from my generation), and this shows through in my work. As there exists a mystical realm, a certain ‘spiritual romanticism’, which is the tonic of my composition”. Onstage, he captivates not only with his music, but also with his theatrical performance in perfect harmony. DJ Glittah will keep the beat between acts, there’ll be short films curated by Braziliality, and of course, three lanes reserved for JD for you to book and bowl. ,&

hjbbZg hiVgih ]ZgZ### The month of May's truly โ kicking offโ , and the shows over the coming weeks promise to get even the laziest of bones out and about. Gotan Project are due back in town with their electro Tango, to their as good as London headquarters, whilst Clara Moreno promises some cosy samba at Guanabara. The smooth samba jazz of Vinicius Cantuรกria returns to his last London stage, the Barbican, and rounding it all off, Casuarina and their old school samba, hailing Rioโ s Lapa, will be livening up Guanabara later in the month. Incidentally, they share in common the fact theyโ re coming to London with new albums to promote. And fortunately for us, their latest works are real masterpieces. 10 out of 10. ,&

V^gWdgcZ Vgi [gdb V[Vg THE LARGEST FAIR OF LATIN AMERICAN ART ARRIVES FROM NEW YORK Come June, the colours, lines and movement of Latin American art will burst out in West London. In its third edition – and its very first in Europe – PINTA, the Modern & Contemporary Latin American Art Show, will arrive. Usually only in New York, this year the event gains a London leg, promising to bring together works by the most influential of artists from over 50 galleries from the USA, the Americas and Europe. According to Mauro Herlitzka, one of the directors of the fair, right from the first edition it was always evident that one day a European PINTA would be in order: “London's the perfect place, for its interest in art from different parts of the world, its curious audience and a central market for the arts. We now have the maturity after NY to do it [here]â€?. There are two Brasilian galleries on the list of those selected to participate in the event, being BarĂł and Nara Roesler, both from SĂŁo Paulo. Other galleries are also getting a lot of attention (see left), and among the artists expected to steal the show are Regina Silveira, Artur Lescher, LeĂłn Ferrari, Cao GuimarĂŁes, SebastiĂŁo Salgado, Ligia Pape, Ligia Clark, HĂŠlio Oiticica, Vik Muniz and Mira Schendel. Beyond the stands, PINTA will also hold two exhibitions: a tribute to the Venezuelan painter Carlos Cruz-Diez, and a show by the Cuban artist Carmen Herrera, known for reinterpreting geometric abstraction. A rare opportunity to see up close the sheer richness of Latin art all in one space, and on European soil. ,& D[ ,}NKC $QNNKIGT

PERUVIAN FILMMAKER UNEARTHS HER NATION'S PAINFUL PAST It’s a stark statistic, but during Peru's civil war, between 1970 and 1990, over 90% of girls aged between 12-16 were raped. If these numbers make one feel uneasy, put yourself in the position of a nation trying to forget the traumas of this era. “I felt all this fear, the ghosts that haunted the air. So I decided to depict the change the country's experiencing today, portraying the feeling of hope�, says the Peruvian filmmaker Claudia Llosa, winner of the Golden Bear for her second feature film The Milk of Sorrow, nominee for Best Foreign Language Film for this year’s 82nd Academy Awards. Inspired by research by anthropologist Kimberly Theidon, the film tells the story of young Fausta, who suffers from the illness ‘the milk of sorrow’, absorbed from her mother who was raped whilst pregnant. Fausta attempts to defend her body, but this only leads to deeper problems. Rather than depicting violence, the film bears sensitive cinematography and chanting in Quechua (an Inca dialect), portraying this courageous journey from fear to freedom. ,&

The basement of London’s Troubadour CafÊ has been graced by the likes of Jimi Hendrix, Bob Dylan and Jimmy Page, but upstairs this May it’ll showcase the first physical exhibition of rising Brasilian artists from a new online gallery, nicolahall.com. Having studied Art History and worked at the Royal Academy and Tryon Gallery, the website is passion and project of young English art dealer Nicola Elphinstone. But it was

her partner's international career which took them to Zimbabwe, Kenya and finally Brasil, immersing her in the vibrant art scenes abroad. Now representing and selling artists’ work from these countries, Nicola aims to “bring within reach original and affordable art�. Launching the website in February, where she provides insight into each artist’s life with journal accounts, she recently returned from two years in Brasil. This month she’ll hold a

one-day show presenting the work of three Brasilians: Menelaw Sete, ‘the Picasso of Brasil’, a Salvadorbased eccentric who once held an underwater exhibition; TĂşlio Pinto, with vast acrylic compositions bursting with colour; and FĂĄbio Merker, fascinated by degrees of dis/ organisation, adapting the Brasil flag moto as ‘Order and Chaos’, mixing ridgid motifs with (uncontrollable) dripping paint. Catch their work before it’s back to hyperreality. ,&

THE BRASILIAN PERCUSSIONIST IN SEARCH OF AFRICA, RHYTHMS, AND A ROUTE HOME Although not hugely well-known, Adriano Adewale is a name well worth keeping an eye on – you’re likely to see it around. This Brasilian musician, half African, almost Londoner yet completely global, arrived here ten years ago, and these days wins audiences over all around. Full of energy and agility, Adewale fell for music as a child, through is grandfather. As many Brasilians do, he came to London to learn English and discover another culture, but his main motive was to be a touch closer to his roots, in Africa. Before too long he was finally able to visit the continent, gleaning rhythms and studying new instruments. After his return to do a Masters at SOAS (the School of Oriental and African Studies), performing here and there, he set about on numerous projects. Sementes (2008), his first CD (meaning ‘seeds’), “was a slow creative process, but ever such a special oneâ€?, he reflects. The mixture of jazz, drums, Brasil, Africa and Europe was inspired by diversity he found in his daily life. “In Europe you meet people from all over the world, different cultures and tastes, it’s very rich in that senseâ€?. For almost a year, Adewale's been artist in residence at the University of Essex, where, together with the company Segue, he’ll lead Festival Brasileiro. Beyond this project he’s got various London shows and in September is due to launch his new CD, RaĂ­zes (Roots), a natural growth from Sementes. He says that for the audience it’s easy for them to conjure imagery through his music, and has his fingers crossed the new album continues to invoke this: “I hope this feeling is strong with the song ‘Family Album’, bearing that certain saudade (a fond longing) for Brasil and familyâ€?. And speaking of Brasil, his journey back is already on his mind, after all a true Brasilian never loses that love for home. “I want to return but to take with me what I’ve learnt. I dream of creating a cultural centre and working with the community. To me, this is music, a social instrumentâ€?. ,& '' ,WPING&TWOU B6N '%&%

cd k^hV cZXZhhVgn Who'd ever imagine that one day a London-based collective would build a cultural bridge between Cuba and Bangladesh? The Lokkhi Terra project, and the album they’ve just released, is just as incredible as this idea. The musical imagination and global vision of Bengali pianist Kishon Khan led him to put together a multicultural combo with worldclass musicians like jazz artist Finn Peters, Brasil’s Kassin Alexandre (Moreno/Domenico/ Kassin +2), Stephane San Juan (Amadou & Mariam), Hilaire Penda (Trilok Gurtu), recording in Rio, Dhaka, La Havana & London. A sensual jazzy feeling embraces No Visa Required, featuring soulful Bengali voices of Sohini Alam and Aneire Khan, Afro-Latin rhythms and refined Indian classical music. This musical 'OVNI' has taken off from cosmopolitan London city and can be seen at night from the Caribbean Sea to the Far-East mountains... ,&

“I got married at forró”, says Aruna de Oliveira Costa. Her statement might sound weird at first, but it represents how something first tried as a matter of curiosity can evolve into a hobby and become an important part of someone’s life – or even to mark the consecration of a relationship, as happened with Aruna. ‘’I went to Brasil on holiday in 2003 and started practicing capoeira. Then I was introduced to forró. I now come here ever since it opened’’. By ‘here’, Aruna’s referring to Forró do Galpão, the weekly party which goes down at Corbet Place on Brick Lane. And that’s where she met her husband. ‘’The place is now part of my life, so when Juca and I decided to get married we chose to celebrate here after the ceremony in Brasil, and the organisers threw us a party’’, she says, in an almost perfect Portuguese, with a little Minas Gerais twang. Another English woman in love with forró, Bella

Dodds, 25, comes to Forró do Galpão whenever she can. “People here are a family. Many are frequent punters and everybody is up for dancing and having fun. The atmosphere conquered me’’, she tells, and not only the atmosphere, as Bella also met her other half, Jonata, at Corbet Place. Her love for Latin rhythms began in her teenage years and she’s mastered salsa, samba, axé and lambada. She even happily gives hints and pointers to those willing to have a go. ‘’Samba is much harder to learn than forró, where the pace is more obvious. Samba can be very quick and tricky to follow, while I didn’t have any trouble learning forró’’. Aruna agrees: “if the man knows how to dance, the women learns faster; it gets easier for us’’. Sizzling and packed, Forró do Galpão has been such a hit that some punters have teamed up to organise a second event on Mondays, but they make it clear that it’s not a replacement event. “Galpão remains strong’’, says DJ James Lawrence, whose own forró story is rather curious. He first experienced

forró two years ago, at Guanabara, and even though he doesn’t speak a word of Portuguese, Lawrence took eight months of dancing classes. “I didn’t know what the songs were about, but I could get their feel. It was also rather pleasant to dance so close to a woman, something not so common in England, as it’s not part of our tradition’’, he explains. For James, practice is the only the way towards perfection for a male dancer. “It’s quite hard to get to grips with leading the steps, something essential for a forró dancer. You have to practice all the time’’. Forró, however, is by no means the only Brasilian rhythm enjoying popularity in London. Samba, albeit more traditional and known worldwide now for a long time, still attracts its followers in the capital. Rosa Nazira, who’s been teaching samba classes for more than 10 years, says that British men and women have never given up on the famous rhythm from the streets of Rio de Janeiro. She feels touched by the amount of elderly students in her classes. “It’s so surprising.

They dance non-stop, with no fear, just so willing to seize the moment’’, Rosa explains. Latin rhythms such as salsa are also a guarantee for fun in London. First, however, learners have to overcome the most basic difficulty of the process – getting the tempo right. In the specific case of salsa, Rosa prescribes persistence as the only medicine. “If you work your socks off you’ll get there. Dedication, persistence and perseverance form a well-known trio, but they are still the best way to reach any goals in life. Learning to dance is no different. The more you practice, the more you perfect it, regardless of which rhythm you have a go at’’. A new fever that’s been conquering revellers is lambada zouk. Kleber Saude, who teaches the rhythm, explains what it’s all about: “it’s hard to describe. It’s a fusion style, so there are adaptations. Some people even call it the Brasilian Zouk to differentiate from the Caribbean variation’’. For those who don’t know, the main difference is the tempo. The original version is slower and allows more body and head movements, while the Brasilian variation is a bit faster and closer to the original lambada. Which one is more successful? ‘’Both. Dance is always in demand for every kind of style’’, answers Kleber. More than merely a way to learn some new steps, the dance nights spread across London offer mental and physical benefits. Dance can also be a form of escaping a sedentary life with an activity so enjoyable that it disguises the effort made. Besides, it’s a great way to socialise, meet new people and shake off stress when dancing the night away. ,&

UNDOUBTEDLY ONE OF THE MOST FAMOUS CASES OF SUCCESS FOR BRASILIAN DANCERS internationally, Thiago Soares is Jungle’s guest editor for this month. Based in London since 2002, he’s one of the first dancers at the Royal Opera Ballet, one of the world’s most prestigious classical companies in the world. But although he arrived in the city with the most impressive CV of any Brasilian dancer in terms of international awards (a Gold medal at the annual jamboree organised by the Russian outfit Bolshoi, and a Silver at the Paris International Dance Festival), Thiago had to start from scratch in London – his first shows were as an extra. ‘’I had to learn a lot about the tradition and the style of the Royal Ballet, which I didn’t know very well. I accepted the challenge and don’t regret it. I’m still grateful that Royal Ballet made me take a step backwards in order to take several forwards’’, he says. It didn’t take long for Thiago to have his talent recognised in London, though; in 2006 he had already climbed up the ladder and reached the position of first dancer. ‘’It had a special taste - there’s nothing better than a triumph conquered with difficulties, he states, proudly. Curiously enough, Thiago started his moves with capoeira and used to dance hip hop. Then, by suggestion of the coordinator of the group he was part of, he decided to invest in classical training. ‘’The guy said I had potential to be a classical dancer, but I thought it had nothing to do with me. I liked hip-hop, spinning on the foot. But he persisted, saying that the technique would help me with street dance. Then, when I was 15, I took jazz classes. I was starting to think seriously of becoming a dancer and I choose Centro de Dança Rio. They insisted that I took ballet, and after trying it I didn’t stop’’, he recalls. ,&

interview

THE INSATIABLE MIND BEHIND BRASIL’S LARGEST CONTEMPORARY DANCE COMPANY, DEBORAH COLKER SPEAKS TO JUNGLE ABOUT THE BUILDING OF HER CAREER AND HER NEW SHOW, CRUEL Perseverance and a lot of energy. These are, without a doubt, two of the most defining traits in the personality of Deborah Colker. The Rio-born dancer of Jewish Russian descent started out with ballet, learnt piano and went on to play volleyball, turning professional in the latter, before deciding to return to dance. After realising it was the right path for her, and from the very start in the early 80s, Deborah has choreographed shows, taught lessons, worked in fashion, theatre and carnival; she created special sequences for the World Cup and became the first woman to develop a dance for Cirque du Soleil, in celebration of the 25th anniversary of the Canadian company. To the passerby, Deborah, short and with a certain way about her - girlish, yet with a touch of tomboy – could go unnoticed in relation to her vast experience with dance. But one merely has to see her on the stage for any doubt to disappear; the vigour and precision with which she executes movements choreographed right down to the millimetre together with her company simply transform her into a giant. Even when she can’t be identified, whether amid the dancers or not even on stage, she has the ability to captivate the audience with her extremely fertile imagination, through the routines which she develops. Creating a singular and unprecedented style in Brasil, the trademark of the

company today, Deborah strives for more. And the mixture of contemporary dance with circus acrobatics enveloped broader influences, the necessity for which was determined by the very shows themselves. After Rota, in 1997, she realised the importance of staying close to the classical.

I’M VERY DEMANDING AND DON’T WANT TO REPEAT MYSELF. WITH TIME WE BECOME MORE SOPHISTICATED AND MATURE, THE RESTRICTIONS ARE BECOMING EVER TOUGHER. “Rota was greatly responsible for my returning to a love of classical ballet. Its technique benefits the existence of a contemporary dance company every day, and this can be seen in every sense: in the discipline, the aesthetic, the technique, breathing, and synchronicity”, she says. Then after Nó, in 2005, she took the gamble of applying more drama to the

shows. And her doing so was not in vain, as her latest work, Cruel, which Deborah is actually presenting around the UK, arriving in London in June, is inspired by the cruelty of youth and of old age, and by emotions such as love, passion, lust and rejection. Beyond winning innumerous awards in Brasil, the Deborah Colker Dance Company also received in 2001, in London, the Laurence Olivier Award for best choreography for Mix, a fusion of their first two productions, Vulcão (Volcano) and Velox. Talking to Jungle, the choreographer, now 50, reflects on her long journey since starting her own company, right through to her modern day recognition amongst audiences and critics alike. How and when did you start dancing? I started when young, studying ballet between the age of five and eight, and then I stopped so as to study piano and volleyball, and focus on my other studies. When I was 15 I began dancing once again, taking classes in ballet, jazz and tap dance. When I was 17 I started contemporary dance, and it was then that I chose to devote myself to dance, though I went on to study Psychology. In 2000, I returned to study piano again. I still dance classical ballet, even today, but it was in contemporary dance that I found a means in which to express my ideas, feelings and concerns. Where did the idea for the Deborah Colker Dance Company come from?

deborah colker From 1984 until 1993 (the year the company began), I was working as a choreographer and movement director for several theatrical productions, in showbiz, cinema, advertising, TV, and dance too. Over all these years I was also giving contemporary dance classes, and I choreographed lots of shows and during that time I began to develop my own style as an artist, then in 1993 I had this absurd necessity to tackle a far more complete piece of work, something which reflected me more. The first show, in 1994, was called Vulcão. As soon as it premiered, I knew I wasn’t simply putting on a show, but that

I was essentially creating a dance company. What was the experience like, of creating a dance company in Brasil? What is the hardest or most challenging part? When I began in the 90s, it was still difficult to get slots in the theatres, coverage in the press or any kind of sponsorship. Starting a dance company in Rio de Janeiro in the 90s was like planting a seed in the desert; it felt like trying to climb up walls or scale a mountain. And that, incidentally, is how Velox, my second show, was born in 1995. At that time there were very few municipal or provincial dance companies throughout Brasil that were managing to

survive. But those times changed for the better and I believe that my company played an important role in that change. We weren’t asking for any favours in our merely existing, but what we were doing was developing a creative and professional work that’s important for culture, education and art. Where do you get inspiration from for your shows? From daily life, from contemporary life, from my experiences and perceptions of the world. We also carry out research and experimentation that creates a dialogue with these inspirations. Which show was most difficult

interview

to choreograph? They get more difficult to choreograph and conceive each time. I’m very demanding and I don’t want to repeat myself.I believe that with time we become more sophisticated and mature. In this sense the restrictions are becoming ever tougher. And which of your shows got the most positive audience response? All of them have had a brilliant response from the audience, but I have to admit that Velox was a high point. Rota was a worldwide success… well, it’s hard to say. 4POR4 went down brilliantly in New

York; Cruel was wonderfully received in Germany and also Brasil too. All of the shows have communicated well with the audiences. You’ve performed in London before, haven’t you? What are you expecting from this return? Yes I’ve brought all the company’s shows to London. I’m feeling good about this tour of Cruel in the UK. ‘Cruel bears my trademark style, yet takes things in new directions. I think the shows will be emotional and will have a great rapport with the public. Do you think Brasilian dance has a

good reputation outside of Brasil? I think so. We have good dancers working in companies abroad and we have different types and genres of Brasilian companies performing abroad too. What do you consider to be the most important part of your work? I believe in the force of movement as beauty, wonder and thought. My work is a fascination with experimenting with new spaces and discovering new movements, and building a creative body. It is charged with emotion, intention, ideas and principally the certainty that dance has an intrinsic capacity for expression and emotion. ,&

DANCE SCHEME PROVIDES SCHOOLCHILDREN WITH A HEALTHY OUTLOOK AND CAREER PROSPECTS Promoting extra-curricular activities to get young people involved in dance seems a simple idea, but in London there’s something extra special happening. Aimed at the classroom, the Step Into Dance scheme seeks to get more than 400 young people aged 11-16, from 100 different schools across the city, participating in weekly dance lessons, with a range of styles from classical jazz and tap-dance, through to break-dance and hip hop. Recently the project also incorporated Latin styles and even fusions of contemporary dance and capoeira, taught by Norwegian dancer Annette Brandanger, who began practising the latter four years ago. Outlining her inspiration, she said “my background’s in contemporary dance; I heard about capoeira while working in a bar with some Brasilians. The physical strength gained from its practice, especially in the upper body, the intensive vascular workout and combination of dance and acrobatic movements to create strong, steady shapes really captivated me”.

Becoming a part of Step Into Dance over two years ago, Annette said that young people benefit not just on a physical level, but also because it demystifies various aspects of dance, which before they perhaps didn’t have access to. “When you’re 11 or 12 your impression of dance comes almost exclusively through big productions like musicals, most likely without taking part. During the lessons of the scheme they begin by learning that dance isn’t just about letting go to the music and doing what you want, but that there’s a lot of work behind the choreography”, she added. They also learn to deal not only with the responsibility of having to help each other in a group, but also to demonstrate dedication required to develop their abilities. Besides regular local shows throughout the year for friends and family, groups are selected between April and May for participation in Step LIVE!, the project’s annual celebration, which brings together pupils from different schools in a show held at a large London

the right

theatre, this year being Sadler’s Wells. The other side to the project is the discovery of a potential career, something perhaps not previously considered by the children. “Many of them are incredibly talented. Recently, I even had a pupil accepted onto a programme at The Place,” said Annette. Another instructor, David Lyons, explained how his own career started early, given that he began dancing at 11. “My aunt used to do Latin ballroom dancing and one day I went with her. I haven’t stopped dancing since; I had real flair and started to train and win competitions. Dance became my profession: I also studied ballet, jazz and tap-dancing, and even appeared in musicals”, says David, who besides the regular school projects is involved in Latin rhythms workshops provided in Step LIVE! (see box). The programme also has teachers specifically trained to work with children with special needs. Those interested in offering Step Into Dance’s scheme to their pupils can sign up at stepintodance.org. ,&

praia do forte

THE FORTRESS OF NATURE

HISTORY, NATURAL BEAUTY AND ENVIRONMENTAL PRESERVATION COME TOGETHER IN PRAIA DO FORTE Picture perfect. This is the initial impression projected by the town of Praia do Forte, a district in the city of Mata do São João on Bahia's northern coast, about 35 miles from Salvador. The centre is made up of sweet multi-coloured houses found in mostly traffic-free lanes and clean and tidy courtyards. Where cars are allowed, they traverse the passageways' paved streets no faster than 18mph. In order to project this village feel, everything has been planned down to the smallest detail, from the flowers

to the signposts. Crossing the centre of town to get to the beach, the feeling of being on a set design is reinforced by the emerald-blue sea and the natural swimming pools lined with coconut trees. This rustic feel, however, ends with the landscape, because Praia do Forte’s infrastructure is tailored for visiting tourists, starting with the huge array of accommodation to suit any budget; from the well-known hotel chains and largescale resorts offering total luxury and

numerous leisure activities, to the cosy guest houses and hostels for those who want to enjoy the area without breaking the bank. There are also many culinary options on offer: as well as the typical Bahian fare there are also Italian, French, Spanish and Japanese restaurants to name just a few cuisines catered for. The town also provides currency exchange facilities, internet cafés, and even a medium-sized airport. If you can't get there by aeroplane you

can easily reach the area via the BA-099 highway, known as the Linha Verde (Green Line) or Estrada do Coco (Coconut Highway), linking Salvador to Mangue Seco, on the border of Bahia with the neighbouring state of Sergipe. For those who prefer to take in the scenery you can catch a bus with Expresso Linha Verde, offering a regular service which takes around two hours from Salvador bus station or Luis Eduardo Magalhães airport, which serves the Bahian capital. It couldn't be easier!

Francisco Dias D’Ávila. The castle was a military barracks as well as a fort, protecting the country against foreign coastal invasions, thus giving Praia do Forte its name, which translates literally as 'the beach of the fort'. It was part of the Morgado da Torre farm, the largest estate in the world at the time, covering 10% of Brasil and owned by the D’Ávila family. Among the farm's main activities was the raising of cattle and growing of coconuts. Upon reaching the castle, just under two

praia do forte miles from the town centre – but well worth every inch – it’s easy to see the strategic thinking behind building the stone fort in that spot, not just because of its military function but because of the spectacular 360° panoramic views right across the whole of Praia do Forte, given its being 70m above sea level. Sure enough, the area in which the farm was located was subdivided into lots and turned into a fishing town; in 1900, the St. Francis chapel was built there and still stands today, and treating Praia do Porto as its boundary, it’s one of the town's main chapels, closest to the commercial district.

Bountiful nature | The region's natural beauty is the main reason that this sleepy fishing village has been transformed into a tourist destination which welcomes more than 1 million visitors a year from all corners of the world. Praia do Forte's 9 miles of coastline is divided into four beaches; a car is handy to get between them, but isn't essential, only a little more will power is required to make the journey on foot, and the resulting weariness and heat can always be refreshed with a quick dip in the sea. The natural swimming pools with their crystal-clear waters can be taken advantage of just a short distance from the town. At

both Praia do Papa-gente and Praia do Lord, plenty of sunscreen and snorkelling gear will afford you hours of enjoyment in the warm waters, teeming with colourful fish, the fine, white sand and lots of sunshine. And of course, like everywhere in northeast Brasil, you’ll find coconut trees in abundance. Between the months of May and June be prepared to share the waters with giant sea turtles, whilst from July to October you might just find yourself in the company of humpback whales. The sea turtles however can also be found all year round in Praia do Forte, since the town is host to the country's primary project for the protection of sea

praia do forte turtles, the Tamar, which opens its doors to visitors (see box), as well as the Humpback Whale Institute, an NGO established in 1987 which holds activities to promote the conservation and study of this great mammal.

Enjoyment from day to night | For those who don't just want to stop and admire the diversity of the local flora and fauna, Praia do Forte also offers plenty of water sports such as surfing, windsurfing, diving, deep-sea fishing and canoeing, as well as cycling, horse riding or quad-biking, and even parasailing, which is the ultimate thrill. For those not familar, this involves being towed by a boat, gliding

high behind it suspended from a parasail, a specially designed parachute. The nightlife might not match that of the big cities, but a number of bars offer the chance to liven up the evening, such as the Bahian-Brasilian repertoire which can be caught at the Bar do Souza, also famous for its traditional fishcakes. During the high season, Praia do Forte also hosts a number of summer festivals, from food to music, like the popular Trivela festival. To relax the morning after, pick one of the beautiful local beaches, keep hydrated with iced coconut water and make the most of the sea and sand. With all the natural beauty that Praia do Forte has to offer, this certainly won't be a challenge. ,&

TIPS, SIPS & NIBBLES

THIS MONTH, THE JD TEAM RECOMMEND

The lively tapas restaurant-bar marks its 3rd anniversary Both in its name and reality, with Camino being a rendez vous ‘on the way’, the Kings Cross hub of Latin music and fine Tapas has proved that it's no mere passing trend, as on 19th May the restaurant is set to mark its 3rd anniversary. The venue's thrived hugely with a diverse array of live music, DJs and parties, but those aren’t Camino’s only virtues, as founder Richard Bigg explains its intrinsic connection with Spain: “every 6 months I take about 15 staff to visit great cities and wineries and try the local food. This helps the staff learn more, bond and feel appreciated”. For the party Richard’s anticipating “a crazy atmosphere that will seep up everyone, even those not aware of what they've stumbled upon”. And Jungle’s been helping plan the event, with the ubiquitous DJ Lime followed by the lively old Molotov Jukebox. Also, much as we did last year, starting on June 20th we’ll be throwing four months of Summer Sunday Sessions on every 3rd Sunday of the month, with live bands and DJs playing. For the 19th, hop to Camino’s website for a drinks voucher while they last! JD KEY:

Apesar de seu nome significar 'caminho' e representar, de fato, uma forma de passar o tempo, o bar de Kings Cross que reune música latina e bons petiscos espanhóis provou que não é uma moda passageira com a comemoração de seu terceiro aniversário no dia 19 de maio. O local se desenvolveu imensamente com a grande variedade de DJs e festas com música ao vivo, mas estes não são as únicas virtudes do Camino; o fundador da casa Richard Bigg explica a ligação intrínseca com a Espanha: "a cada seis meses eu levo cerca de 15 membros da equipe à cidades espanholas, visitamos vinhedos e provamos a comida local. Isso ajuda o staff a aprender mais e se sentir valorizado". Para a festa, Richard prevê "uma louca atmosfera que vai contagiar a todos". A Jungle também está ajudando a planejar o evento, que terá DJ Limão e a banda Molotov Jukebox. E novamente este ano levamos à casa o Summer Sunday Sessions, a cada terceiro domingo do mês começando em 20 de junho, com bandas e DJs.

BARRIO CENTRAL

barrio’s sista Soho just got a brand new Latino neighbour: inaugurated in April, Barrio Central is the younger sister bar of buzzing Barrio North in Islington. It's the same friendly concept, with a novel twist or two - vision of founder Ferdie Ahmed, the bar, menu and ambient blends influences from innumerous countries and Latin corners of the world. Adorned with fabrics and reused objects, Barrio Central’s décor is something special, and revellers are invited to play their part: “under the glass tables we have drawers and people can help us decorate by bringing objects that go well with the place. The idea is that everybody can leave their mark in here”, explains Ferdie. You can enjoy your drinks at the scenic porch at the back downstairs, with artificial grass, deckchairs and a rubix cube table, or have a cosy chat in the cabana. On the drink’s menu (a work of art in itself), exotic cocktails don’t make for an easy choice. If you like it sweet, go for the 'Brazilian Lady': a soft and tasty mix of cachaça, lemon and passion fruit. 'Breakfast at Barrio' is a great citrus choice: rum sour with added spice, and it literally comes aflame! The 'No Brainer', a mix of tequilas, guava, grapefruit and pineapple, is served in a lucha libre mask. The bar snacks are rather attractive as well. The tender Creole Marinated Shrimps are definitely our favourite, but the soft Carne Asada and delicious Calamari rings are also top. With friendly staff, great decoration and drinks filled with character, Barrio Central’s definitely a top choice for a cool night out. barrio central 6 Poland street, Soho - W1F 8PS Oxford Street 020 3230 1002

sins of the flesh Although it has been around since 2006, it was last year's featuring on Gordon Ramsay's 'The F-Word' that made Santa Maria del Sur famous. However, the place remains committed much more to food than fame - especially the carefully selected meat from the best sources in the Argentinean Pampas, hung for 28 days. Best of all, the TV fame had no impact on the price list the average meal costing £35 per head. Despite being a place which is always busy, Santa Maria's atmosphere remains relaxed and unpretentious, and the staff are friendly, attentive and dynamic. Manager Gerardo (a forty-something year old) represents it really well with his cool and laid back attitude, and he'll personally dim the lights and move tables around to accommodate the guests. The steaks are the stars of the show, but Santa Maria offers a full range of starters, such as the empanadas - £5 will get you two pasties with assorted fillings - beef, chicken, sweetcorn, spinach and cheese. And for those real cheese-lovers out there there's the grilled provolone slabs. For the main course, we recommend a PARRILLADA DELUXE, a mixed grill to share containing the finest cuts the restaurant has to offer, at £25. Although Santa Maria has an extensive selection of South American wines, it's handy to note that they also allow you to bring your own bottle, with a corkage fee of £5.

KPDQZ + ,WPING WPING at our party 'Baby Bitch' at Bloomsbury Bowling Lanes on June 4th - Spread the word and invite your friends! JD

Don't hesitate to send us your raves and rants! JungleDrums p.o. box 49713 london wc1x 8ww inbox@jungledrums.org PRAISE FROM OVERSEAS Hi JD. I'm reading the magazine and really enjoying it. Your logo is just beautiful, very professional. I'm glad a Brasilian publication like yours exists - it's an incentive for us to continue and improve every day. It's a mirror for all of us. Congratulations! Josivaldo, Nos Por Exemplo Blog, via email

DREAMS DO COME TRUE Hi JD. You got in contact with me in October regarding a competition I won and I quizzed you about some film stuff in Brasil. Anyway, just want to say thanks, due to the info you sent me I am now moving to Rio to work with Cinema Nosso and I’ll be independently running film workshops with young people in both Rio and Salvador. Obrigada! Olivia, via email That’s fantastic news! We wish you every success with the project. JD A WORD OF ADVICE JD. I realise the magazine keeps the Brasilian community in London informed, but there's one thing they might not know: every Brasilian residing abroad can apply for credit to buy a property in Brasil without having to prove income. I thought It would be important to spread the word. Maria Emilia, via email

Hi Josivaldo. Thank you for your kind words. We're very flattered by your comments and happy we're able to inspire others out there. It just makes all the hard work worthwhile. JD LONGING FOR FUNK Hi JD.. I was just wondering, and possibly even suggesting, I think it would be a good idea to throw a Baile funk party in London. A lot of my friends here are from Brasil and we all think it'd be a great idea if someone could organise that. Even my nonBrasilian friends love Baile funk! Denise, via mail

A SERBIAN-DANISH STUDENT WITH SAUDADES FOR ‘JAGUAR MILK’ AND AN EYE FOR LONDON'S AUTHENTIC BRASILIAN EDGES What do you do? A Masters in Global Politics and I intern at the UK Parliament. How did you find out about Jungle? I often go to Brasilian bars so inevitably I found Jungle. What's your favourite part of the magazine and why? The agenda and events ads, for Brasilian and other Latin events, the interview articles, food and travel! Do you have a connection to Brasil? I went to São Paulo & Rio for the first time last year and I fell in love – the people, culture, music, landscapes, language! It’s magical. What's your favourite Brasilian food/drink/ product?

I’d say the street stall coconut juice, caipirinhas and “Jaguar Milk” (Leite de Onça - cold milk and cachaça)! As for food, the classic Feijoada dish with grilled fish (amazing), Pão de Queijo and of course the Churrascarias... a must if you love meat! What's the best Brasilian place in London? I always try to look for the most ‘authentic’ places, or relatively unknown music acts for the more Brasilian crowd and atmosphere – the latest one I came across was a cosy bar called Canecão, between Camden and Islington – chilled out vibes and delicious Caipibeer – beer with lemon and salt! You can’t go wrong with a place like that. ,&

Whilst we don’t yet have a airlines which fly to Brasilia in the Baile funk party in our plans for this Insider feature of our Destination year, we do have Marina Gasolina article in JD #79, and point out + DJ João Brasil and others mashing that one can also journey to the up a little storm of Brasilian beats Brasilian capital with TAP Portugal.
