About Lavoura: Lavoura is a Brazilian quartet that creates a fusion of electronic, jazz and African futurism. Since the late 1990’s, musician and producer TRZ, together with bass player Fabiano (DJ IB) and Paulo Pires, have played in a popular local Sao Paulo band called Mercado de Peixe. While the three of them were living in Bauru, they created a side project of pro-groove beats named Musikalikida. In 2003, DJ IB and TRZ started a new project called Lavoura Eletro, a reference to a novel by author Raduan Nassar Lavoura Arcaica. Using samples and remixing genres like Samba, House, Dub, Hip Hop, Afro beat, IDM, Brazilian Popular Music (MPB) and Drum’n’Bass, their performances became quite popular, playing raves and clubs all over Sao Paulo State. Veteran musician Caleb Mascarenhas joined the group in 2006 bringing a wealth of musical influences such as rock (Amnesia), surf-music (The Dead Rocks) and experimental electronic (Dialogos Libertinos, Os Arvores and AE). When Mascarenhas and Pires joined the group they cemented the mix bringing with them a 70’s funk and digital psychedelic flavour. Strong advocates of promoting their music for download on the Internet, they have contributed music to websites such as Fiberonline, Myspace, and CCMixter.
"An electronic and absurdly cosmic sound."
- Alexandre Matias, Rolling Stone N. 11
"From jazzy funk to lounge, passing through heavy synthetic climates and a lot of Brazilian music."
- Alexandre Matias, Rolling Stone N. 11 |
