It's a sound that has been heard often in Brazil in the last four years: people stepping on their balconies and banging on their pans. Noise against a government that has reversed all previous efforts to make Brazil more just, more united and more tolerant.

The group DA CRUZ has picked up on this sound in their latest song, "Bate Panela" ("Pan banging"). The song is about the pain and anger of a person whose values and Afro-Brazilian history are being ridiculed by a cynical government.

"Oh my God! This cultural abyss must have an end," sings Mariana Da Cruz at the end of this raucous and powerfully grooving song that shuttles stylistically between Africa, Europe and Brazil - urbane, intensely fervent and driven towards the end by an almost mocking furore.

"Bate Panela" is the second single of the upcoming Da Cruz album "Baladas da Luta". It will be released on 30 September 2022 - two days before the presidential elections in Brazil.
