About Caribbean music and its influences on Brazilian cultural scene, it must be noticed that there's a reason why these rhythms tended to be popular in the North and Northeastern regions of my country: the remoteness of some regions made people buy radio sets that were able to tune short waves and this allowed for them to listen to some foreign stations from the Antilles, meaning that they had access to rhythms and artists virtually unknown for compatriots living in more developed regions that at most owned a sound system able to catch AM and FM. Depending on where in North or Northeast you were, your shortwave radio would catch a station from a given place, meaning that foreign influences varied from region to region. If you were at the state of Maranhão, for example, it was more probable that you would be able to listen to Jamaican stations, being no surprise that reggae fixed deep roots there and even people from that state dancing it as a ballroom dance, something that I don't know if happens in Jamaica. If you were at Pará, chances are that you loved to listen to merengue and, in this case, a local rhythm even was heavily influenced by the beats coming overseas: the local brega, that has also influences from the first year of rock and roll and is something very loved by the inhabitants of that part of Northern region. If you were at Pernambuco, probably you have listened to a lot of salsa and this was the foreign rhythm of preference there, to a point that there are some clubs in Recife specialized in this kind of music, so ingrained it became there. Also from Pará came the lambada that took from assault the world in early 1990s. After being born in Pará, this rhythm also caught a lot in Bahia, that served as launch pad for the rest of the world, as this state is a destination for more tourists than Pará. The success of lambada in Bahia also allowed for it to spread across the rest of Brazil and specially in the Southeastern region (states of São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Minas Gerais and Espírito Santo). As the lambada fad passed, lots of people that knew how to dance it but didn't have any new lambada song to continue the instantly formed ballroom dance scene were saved by another rhythm from Caribbean: the zouk, typical from the French island of Martinica and Guadeloupe, that had an almost similar tempo and could be danced with little adaptations (mainly changing the shake from the legs to the hips and dancing in a three-step progression). The Lambar, a club in São Paulo's south side, was one of the places where the zouk as a dance born and the name of the stablishment clearly says what was playing originally there. As the three-step progression can be found in songs that have nothing Caribbean in them, suddenly other rhythms were also danced in the same way that zouk was danced, to a point that if you say "zouk" to a Brazilian fan of ballroom dance, you have to specify if you are talking about the French Caribbean rhythm or the dance created by Brazilians that resembles a bit the lambada.
