description A metropolis marked by an intense cultural juxtaposition associated with an acute territorial inequality, Recife stands out as a vigorous shelter for brega musical production. Armed with a bibliographical and documentary survey on the subject; and through the gathering of primary information, based on technical visits and semi-structured interviews, we operate the notion of circuit, searching through the playfulness, a detail of the territory in its compass with the market and the political economy of the city. The article shows how, in the suburbs of Recife, the cultural work is organized through small investments, independent of the mainstream media or public power. It is seen that the circuit is tacky, an element of considerable thickness in the dynamics of the contemporary metropolis, based on a myriad of activities of small scope, that allow the survival of the majority of the urban poor, subjects for whom unemployment, more than the fruit of a crisis, is part of life stories.
