Hi there, I’m happy that you have found this page. I’m a composer, multi-instrumentalist, and music producer. So far, it has been a beautiful journey!I have worked with many talented people, both on my personal projects, various side-projects and multiple collaborations including producing music for film, television and theatre. At the end of 2020 I’ve released my first solo record VIBRA, a Portuguese word that means “vibrate” and refers to the mechanical aspects of sound.
I’ve mixed classical and electronic music using piano, strings, synths, percussion and sometimes a choir. All the recordings were made in untreated spaces like subway stations, concrete buldings and a subterranean river. These locations served as extensions of my musical instruments.
I’m currently finishing my new record, which was recorded between London and Porto with producer and guitarist Leo Abrahams. I’m very excited to share it, as it marks a return to the song format I explored with my band MESA across six albums.
Joao
