Terra Brasilis - Samba Made in Berlin
Samba Reggae Berlin
Once a month, percussionists from various Berlin and nationwide groups meet at the ufaFabrik to share their enthusiasm for samba reggae rhythms.
Bloco Explosao
This is the fiery samba percussion formation with playful and dance-loving people from Berlin and the rest of the world. Bloco Explosão, with its colors red and yellow, stands for joy of life, light, sun, but also for fire and explosiveness. In 2003, 2012, and again in 2019, we were among the award winners at the Carnival of Cultures in Berlin.
Bloco Explosão is happy to play again with Renato Pantera and band and has new pieces in the program.

The Brazilian Roberta Paim, who grew up between Salvador de Bahia, São Paulo, and Minas Gerais, is a young "Maestrina" who began her musical journey very early with singing and classical piano in the 1980s in Brazil. When she arrived in Paris in 1999, her passion for culture, especially for Afro-Brazilian music, and the Blocos Afros intensified. She began her training in Brazilian percussion alongside such renowned Mestres as Mestre Marivaldo Paim (Ilê Aiyê - Salvador), Mestre Neguinho do Samba (Olodum/Didà - Salvador), and Mestre Bernardino José (Maracatu Nação Pernambuco - Olinda).
In 2002, Roberta Paim started her own project: the group Zalindê, a purely female percussion formation that impresses with choreography and percussive power.
Her strong personality, competence, and her very special, passionate working style make her a young producer who is valued and increasingly sought after by artists and other professionals in both the Parisian and Brazilian scenes.
Every year, she takes about 40 music enthusiasts to Salvador de Bahia to experience a unique and unforgettable percussion adventure.
