This portrait of Tropic ilia, exploring everything from influences and results to context and main players, shows how the genre helped reinvent Brazil's cultural identity in a postcolonial world.\u003cbr\u003eThe genre's core comes from a unique mix of native and foreign influences- Tropic ilia doesn't reject the international pop panorama but is an undeniable product of it. The book sets the strangling military dictatorship and its resulting censorship serving as the sociopolitical backdrop of the genre. Tropic ilia propelled culture (and counterculture) forward, moving away from senseless niche intellectualisms in favour of a broader reach of Brazilian music.","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46643222315166,"sku":"UBD-9798765119068","price":29.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9798765119068.jpg?v=1774484564","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9798765119068","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
