Pagode baiano (also called pagodão, swingueira and quebradeira) is a Brazilian musical genre created in Salvador, Bahia, originating from the mixture of samba-reggae and pagode, with the main difference being the inclusion of percussion, a faster rhythm and generally accompanied by choreography. Because it is a musical genre that emerged in Bahia, it is wrongly confused with axé music, mainly because both styles were fashionable in Brazil between the 1990s and 2000s.
