Electronic music, Dj’s, and international stars are a relatively recent Carnival phenomenon. The “Electronica” sound was first introduced to Carnival by Daniela Mercury and her Trio Techno in 1999. While the experiment wasn’t well-received at first, it has since caught on and found it’s niche. The first international DJ to play Salvador’s Carnival was Fatboy Slim who, in 2006, led a Trio for Bloco Skol. Since then, each year, the phenomena has grown and Carnival in Salvador has become the carnival destination for the world's top international DJ's.
