Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.How many Brazilian producers reference Marx, Engels, Sartre and Lou Reed in their sleeve notes? On his third album, the DJ otherwise known as Helder Aragao de Melo continues to approach his craft of constructing dance tracks with the focus and precision of a Swiss watchmaker.
Every cymbal tish and woodblock clunk has its place in the percussive backdrops, which are crosshatched by traditional fiddle and enlivened by the throwaway vocals of the endearingly deadpan Isaar, plus other guest singers. Knowing, witty, and politically astute global grooves for the chin-strokers as well as the hip-shakers.
