Viciada em Seduzir

Gaby Amarantos brings the rhythm of Belém’s aparelhagens straight into the studio on a record that doesn’t sound like a recording—it sounds like a street party. Viciada em Seduzir isn’t just a song: it’s a 2-minute, 7-second cut where technobrega collides with carimbó in a relentless loop that won’t let you breathe, as if the speaker were part of the procession. The bass and percussion lock into a repetitive pattern that defies traditional 4/4 time, instead swaying to a cadence closer to Rock Doido, the album she released in late August 2025. There’s no room for silence here; every note seems to push forward, as if the song itself needed to escape its own intensity.The record was born from a collaboration with the collective Altar Sonoro, which joined Gaby Amarantos to capture the raw energy of Northern Brazil’s streets without sugarcoating it.

Viciada em Seduzir proves that studio recordings can sound improvised: the track was laid down in a single take, with musicians playing almost in unison, as if time had frozen on one of those aparelhagem nights where the volume leaves no room for mercy. The result is a piece that doesn’t ask to be danced to—it demands to be lived.
