Monkeybuzz

Article summary

Monkeybuzz was a Brazilian independent music journalism website founded in 2012 by Lucas Repullo. The platform published news, reviews, articles, interviews, and audiovisual content, concentrating on alternative and independent music. The editorial team initially consisted of three core members: Lucas Repullo (editor-in-chief), Nik Silva, and André Felipe de Medeiros. Additional contributors, some with backgrounds in blogging or music writing, also participated. The review process was collaborative, with submissions edited by an assigned reviewer to align with the site's editorial line. On 5 November 2025, Repullo announced that Monkeybuzz would cease publishing new content, while its existing archives would remain available online.
