Unlike its two predecessors, Básico Instinto doesn't count on the participation of Fawcett's backing band Os Robôs Efêmeros; for this release he created a new project, the "Falange Moulin Rouge" ("Moulin Rouge Phalanx"), which was composed of many popular Brazilian musicians at the time, particularly Dado Villa-Lobos (of Legião Urbana), Dé Palmeira (of Barão Vermelho), Ary Dias (of A Cor do Som), Charles Gavin (of Titãs) and João Barone (of Os Paralamas do Sucesso). Fawcett's frequent collaborator Carlos Laufer was the only original member of Os Robôs Efêmeros to remain in the Falange Moulin Rouge.[2] Pagode group Grupo Raça also made a guest appearance on the track "Pagode da Lourinha".

More elaborate, experimental and instrumentally diverse than Fawcett's two previous albums, he describes it as a "samba-funk revue" based on his two books Santa Clara Poltergeist (1990) and Básico Instinto (1992).[3] After the album's release Fawcett continued to tour around Brazil with Falange Moulin Rouge until he decided to stop making albums to dedicate himself to his literary career.
