Tecno brega or technobrega (technotacky) is a form of music from northern Brazil, particularly Belém, Pará.
[2] While there is a large amount of famous music used in tecno brega, the majority of it is original material (80%).
Rather than being sold in a traditional CD format, techno brega is characterized by new distribution methods.
The sound systems themselves become a competitive point, encouraging producers to have the most up to date electronic equipment.
[2] At these shows a performer may also do "shout outs" to friends, family, or neighborhoods, making the CDs more valuable to the audience.
