Atochar is a slang word used in Rafa Dias' home town of Paulo Afonso, Bahia to communicate intensity. For example, Turn that sh*t up might translate as Atocha essa porra ai. ATTOEOEXXA also reflects Rafa's intuitive appreciation of both indigenous Brazilian and Arab cultures much of which comes through in his work. It also emphasizes the number 2 there are 2 A's, 2 T's, 2 O's and 2 X's which emphasizes the hybrid nature of his work, combining seemingly divergent elements into a cohesive whole. ATTOEOEXXA is ****ing f**k or ATTOEOEXXA is the ****ing sh*t. Yep, there's your first lesson in perhaps the 2 most important cuss words in Brazilian Portuguese. Basically, it means that it's really good. ;-) ATTOEOEXXA E FODA PORRA was the phrase the rapper Raoni Knalha came up with to describe the sound of this album to be. He couldn't have been closer to the truth! ||||> What is Pagodao? How much does its rhythm influence the theme of the song?
