METNO

Metno: A Fresh Take on Brazilian Classics Metno, the electronic moniker of composer Monte Weber, takes a bold, contemporary approach to Brazilian music with his latest remix album. Reimagining classic Brazilian tunes and beloved MPB (Música Popular Brasileira) songs, Metno infuses them with a modern Tropicalia-inspired twist, blending electronic textures with the infectious rhythms of samba and bossa nova.Having grown up surrounded by samba and Afro-Brazilian rhythms, Metno brings his own creative spin to these traditions, fusing past and present into something entirely new.
