ÑINOS DO BRASIL

Niccolò Fortuni – Nico Vascellari


Shamanic Techno / Noise/ Batucada/Samba/Electronic

Ninos Du Brasil is a project whose origins and background have remained shrouded in mystery. Dedicated to a bold mixture of batucada and electronic, their sporadic live appearances have become legendary. Dedicated to a bold and unlikely mixture of noise, batucada, samba and electronic, their sporadic live appearances have already become legendary and mythological.

Be it a punk squat in Belgium or the famous Venice Biennale of Architecture, Ninos Du Brasil, without fail, rally the troops, from every walk of life, and create some of the biggest festival style parties on the dance floor. NDB’s condensed yet intense set is a fervent intermixture of old school techno, stadium spirit choruses, Carnival style parade celebrations unified with the intensity of old school hardcore shows.

A sort of shamanic ritual. Their songs are weapons of percussion consisting of cuica, congas, bells, Jambe, rollers, plates, claves, maracas, whistles, bells and animal calls — married with non-traditional instruments: bottles, cans, pieces of wood and undefined rubbish. The goal, to encourage the public to discover and embrace a sexual and instinctual approach to rhythm and existence.

Ignorant but not stupid, visionary, risky, improper and excessive. Both Nico and Nicolò were members of one of the most respected,

important and controversial ’90s hardcore / punk bands, “With Love” (released on Omar Rodriguez of The Mars Volta and At The Drive In’s label GSL).
