Research from an interdisciplinary perspective is something that delights us, because we can immerse and emerge, give and seek, erase and rewrite, re-signify a point from different points of life, pick from different orchards in search of a hybrid and powerful fruit, full of reading possibilities. So researching music motivated us, because music is a social manifestation that represents its time, culture, uses and customs of a society that is sung and told through this art form. And it was through this that we found forró. As a musical manifestation and cultural component of the Northeast of Brazil, forró has attributes of a Northeasternness that has been re-signified since the 1940s, as have the symbolic representations of women sung by this musical style. Thus, we look at the female gender and its corporeality enunciated in electronic forró and present in this book youth representations from the media reception of this northeasternly potent dance, music, party and culture.
