up there the ritual Project

This is an amazing documentary about a type of art that’s is being forgotten by us. It is a beautiful documentary. I think big brands should look at this and realize how much more value their adds will have if done by real artists.

rio 65 trio

I was on Google, searching for new music to listen to, when I found this:

“This is Rio 65 Trio - Rio 65 Trio (1965), for Philips, one of the greatest Samba Jazz album ever recorded featuring Dom Salvador, Edison Machado and Sergio Barroso. Do I need to say more? I don’t think so. This is the kind of album I would select to stay in the front page when leaving to a vacation. Thanks once again tcisalpino. Friends who are new to our community, don’t think twice, this album should be listed on every serious list of top records of any kind.”

Well,… Sergio Barrozo - bass player from Rio65 Trio is my father. I’m very proud to say that my father is one of the most talented bass players in Brazil,… and that’s not what I say, that’s what I hear from a lot of great jazz musicians and listeners all around.

Now they have recorded a new album as Dom Salvador Trio that is on sale on Biscoito Fino Records website. You can also find some songs in the iTunes Store searching for “rio 65 trio” or “dom salvador”.

In this album cover photo, my father was younger than me.

Select t-shirts website

If you like different illustrations on t-shirts you should go to the Select Series website from Threadless. Threadless is a website that has a very cool selection of designers making really awesome t-shirts. And they now have 4 websites to fit different styles of t-shirts they make.

Select is one of them, that in my opinion is the best one from a designer point of view. So if you want to go there, just click on the image below.

Salt Lake City is my new home

I just got in Salt Lake City two weeks ago.

The city is great. It has a lot of art and music culture. Now I will start to post all the art events as I go around SLC. I will also update my Flash site in a few weeks with the works I’ve been doing here and some things that I made in Brazil in the past six months. And for now on I will upload those blog posts more frequently.

I hope you guys like it.

Thanks.
