The acoustic repertoire consisted of forrós "Pé-de-Serra" (rural influence), Bay Horse Marine, Cocos and instrumentation of bands Pífanos. Considering the varied musical backgrounds of the members, the reproduction of traditional could no longer be the line of work of Mestre Ambrósio Acoustic, resulting in forró "Wing-Walk".
