 Maxixe
After the Maxixe: Wistful of his 1912 success, Monsieur Duque traveled back to Brazil ten years later to see what the latest version of the dance looked like and found that it was bouncier, no longer traveled line of dance, had some new variations, and was sometimes called Samba.
The Maxixe was sometimes danced to authentic Brazilian music, such as the compositions of Ernesto Nazareth, but just as often danced to tin pan alley compositions like "Down in Zanzibar."
The Maxixe (Mah-SHEESH) is Africanized polka, meaning it was an Afro-Brazilian styling of the polka brought to Brazil by European immigrants.

 Maxixe - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Maxixe was one of the dances that contributed to the samba and lambada.
The maxixe (occasionally known as the Brazilian tango) is a dance, with its accompanying music, that originated in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in the 1870s at about the same time as the tango was developing in Argentina and Uruguay.
Like the Tango, the Maxixe travelled to Europe and the United States in the early years of the twentieth century.

The maxixe is splendid physical exercise for the waist and hips, and in fact, there is hardly a muscle in the body which is not splendidly developed in the inveterate maxixe dancer.
I have not found the slightest trouble in teaching the maxixe to children of five or six and I don't believe there is a more charming dance for children than this South American composition affords.
When the maxixe dancer becomes proficient, however, there is no reason why he may not vary the order to suit himself.

 Notes on Samba - Origins of Samba - 1916 to 1928
However, without this new music, Duque was just a talented Maxixe dancer.
The band however, continued to develop their music and with it inspired a new dance style called Samba-Carioca (Samba of Rio de Janeiro) that since the 1930s has become popular in the USA and the UK.
Duque is accredited with modifying the Maxixe to fit the innovative music that Oito Batutas played.

 Paulo Bellinati
In the early 20th century, the Maxixe was considered a scandalous and very sensual dance.
A Furiosa is a Maxixe (see Alvoroço comments) for four guitars dedicated to the Los Angeles Guitar Quartet which recorded the piece on his CD "LAGQ" (Sony Classical).
The Maxixe has been an important part of the repertoire of many Furiosas (martial bands).

The only thing I could find was Maxixe, pronounced "muh-SHEESH", which is a Brazilian dance similar to the tango.
Note: Maxixe's story, " Of Love and Salvation " can be found in the Dark Castle of our Guild Forums.
