Jamiroquai

After Jason "Jay" Kay (born Jason Cheetham) auditioned unsuccessfully to be the singer of the The Brand New Heavies, he decided to put together his own band. Jamiroquai's first single, When You Gonna Learn?, was released in 1992 on the Acid Jazz label. Following its success, Kay signed a £1,000,000 eight-album record deal with Sony BMG Music Entertainment. The band enjoys worldwide popularity and is the best-known member of the early-1990s London-based acid jazz movement, alongside groups such as Incognito, The Brand New Heavies, Galliano and Corduroy. Jamiroquai has since, however, moved in other musical directions.

The band´s lead, Jay Kay, is a hat and car lover. During shows he always wears a hat, and he has lots of very expensive sports cars, like a Ferrari.

The name "Jamiroquai" is derived from the Native American Iroquois tribe, with which Kay has said he identifies philosophically, combined with 'Jam', as in musical jamming.

Sam Smith (Backing Vocals) recently left the band and moved to Paris to get involved in some other projects.

MEDUZA have spent the year leading the charge in returning house music to daytime radio, with great success.

Their debut release, ‘Piece Of Your Heart’ featuring Goodboys, has now seen over 2 billion streams globally, reaching double platinum (1.2m units) in the UK alone and peaking at #2 on the Official UK Charts. This trend has followed Meduza globally, with multi Diamond, Platinum and Gold certifications around the world and a GRAMMY nomination. The follow up, ‘Lose Control’ with Goodboys and Becky Hill, has made an unprecedented impact, reaching the UK Top40 in its first week, now notching upward of 2 billion cumulative streams, reaching Gold sales in the UK in less than 4 months and fast approaching double platinum as of now.

These headline successes are also bolstered by an impressive catalogue of hand picked remixes for the likes of MK, R+, Dermot Kennedy and John Legend, displaying not only Meduza’s signature sound and energy, but also the raw ability to create a stand out release whenever called upon.

The touring diary for Meduza showed an almost insatiable demand for the hottest act in dance music, with Fabric (London), Elrow, TOFFLER (Rotterdam) and Warehouse Project (Manchester) to name but a few key venues and events scaling the globe from Europe, North and South America and Asia to seek out the genre leading Meduza sound. Meduza are set to become one of the most in demand acts when the touring returns.

Bad Omens

Bad Omens carefully direct each nuance of their music, approaching the process with an auteur mindset. The California quartet—Noah Sebastian [lead vocals], Joakim “Jolly” Karlsson [lead guitar, vocals], Nicholas Ruffilo [bass], and Nick Folio [drums]—explore the enigmatic idiosyncrasies of their signature sound on 2019’s Finding God Before God Finds Me [Sumerian Records], imbuing cinematic electronics and gospel stature into metallic melodies.

Produced by Noah and Jolly, the ten-track trip unfurls like the sonic equivalent of a gripping existential drama.

“What makes us a rock band is the fact we play instruments, but we’ve always been pretty experimental in terms of post-production,” explains Noah. “We dove after a specific sound without boundaries. What separates us is the attention to detail in every song.”

Bad Omens diligently worked to hone this approach since their 2016 self-titled debut. As the entire tracklisting tallied nearly 30 million streams, the breakthrough single “The Worst In Me” leapt past the 8 million mark on Spotify. Meanwhile, “Glass Houses” clocked 4.7 million Spotify streams, “Exit Wounds” racked up 2.6 million Spotify streams, and “Reprise (The Sound of the End),” “The Fountain,” “F E R A L,” and “Enough, Enough Now” each exceeded 1 million-plus on the platform. Along the way, they received looks from Alternative Press, New Noise, and Revolver and toured alongside everyone from Parkway Drive to Bullet For My Valentine and Asking Alexandria. Following Warped Tour 2017, the group commenced writing for what would become Finding God Before God Finds Me.

“The last record was so melancholic, sad, dark, and nihilistic at points,” he admits. “Before we started really writing the new record, I went through some things that opened up my mind and made me realize who I wanted to be as a musician, what message I wanted to send, and the feeling I needed to inspire. This is predominantly hopeful. There’s a sense of underdogs overcoming adversity. We should be a safe place for people. There’s also a musical feeling of uplifting catharsis. It’s not entirely happy or sad, but more so regal.”

This drove 2018 singles “Careful What You Wish For” and “The Hell I Overcame.” Fans immediately responded as the former generated 1.5 million Spotify streams and the latter quickly neared 2 million. With Jolly a world away in Sweden, they finished the record remotely, maximizing the time in between tours to cap off a panoramic vision.

The 2019 single “Burning Out” couples strains of piano and choir with trudging distortion and a sweeping and soaring chant of empowerment, “I was lost, but now I’m found under the lights and in the sound.”

“It’s about the impact music has made on me and how it saved me in a sense,” he continues. “It’s about my relationship with myself and music and how I overcame my emotions and took advantage of this ability to reach a better place. I wanted the lyrics to give you a sense of hope.”

Bad Omens slither through boundaries, only to ultimately choke convention in the process. The quartet—Noah Sebastian [vocals], Joakim “Jolly” Karlsson [guitar], Nick Ruffilo [bass], and Nick Folio [drums]—materialize with ghostly atmospherics, striking hooks, and the tingles of sensual high-register harmonies uplifted by cinematic production. Racking up over 250M worldwide streams to-date and earning acclaim, the band present an uncompromising and undeniable vision on their third full-length album, THE DEATH OF PEACE OF MIND [Sumerian Records].

“Making the record changed us as songwriters and musicians. In many ways I feel like it set me free as an artist because every decision made in the writing process was for myself, with no fear for anyone else’s expectations of what our third album should sound like. Be it our fans or our record label.”

They’ve always wielded this level of magic though…

The group’s 2016 self-titled debut, Bad Omens, yielded fan favorites such as “Glass Houses” and “The Worst In Me,” which eclipsed 20.4 million Spotify streams. On its heels, 2019’s Finding God Before God Finds Me spawned “Dethrone” [9.5 million Spotify streams] and “Careful What You Wish For” [8.8 million Spotify streams]. Along the way, they toured with numerous marquee acts and received tastemaker praise.

After their first headline tour was cancelled mid-way at the top of the Global Pandemic, the band found themselves at home in Los Angeles with plenty of time. Where they absorbed and imparted a different palette of unexpected inspirations. Channeling what the frontman describes at times as a “cursive sound,” they embraced a newfound confidence and boundlessly loose creativity. Anything went in the studio, and all “rules” were broken. Noah and Jolly wrote, produced, and engineered the music themselves while GRAMMY® Award-nominated producer and songwriter Zakk Cervini [Halsey, Grimes, Poppy, blink-182] lent his talents with the mix and master. Challenging himself, Noah decided to “make a track sampling items around the house, none of which were musical instruments.”

This ultimately became the framework for the first single “THE DEATH OF PEACE OF MIND.” Claps puncture the icy soundscape as his voice stretches from a breathy moan into an evocative and entrancing hook, breaking from a whisper into the seductive chant, “It wasn’t hard to realize. Love’s the death of peace of mind.” It culminates on a climactic scream uplifted by a distorted crunch.

“The whole record really details the loss of peace of mind,” he explains. “The lyrics in the title track are a little more specific in terms of the conflict at the heart of something more intimate and personal.”

Then, there’s “TAKE ME FIRST.” The vocals swirl around a syncopated riff before bleeding into a skyscraping refrain.

“It was written in the moment about another personal experience,” he goes on. “As I zoomed out, I actually felt like at times I was talking about the band and not just this one experience. Now in several ways, to me it’s about what we face and go through as a band right now.”

Elsewhere, his feral delivery tears through a guttural groove on “ARTIFICIAL SUICIDE,” while emotionally charged vocals coast above a string-laden hum on “JUST PRETEND” before a rush of distortion on the hook.

“There are a lot of scenes and elements addressed in the lyrics about social media and the disconnect,” he goes on. “Every song traces back to not being able to have peace of mind because of something, whether it’s your guilt, regret, indifference with things you can’t change, or because you’re struggling to pay your bills. There are so many messages represented across the record, but it all falls back to how I wish I could feel at ease.”

By speaking it aloud, Bad Omens offer a level of comfort and empathy, with a sinister shroud. At the same time, they also give rock music a sexy new shape on THE DEATH OF PEACE OF MIND.

“Sonically, we want to do something you can’t arrive late or early too,” he leaves off. “You can’t cheat your way to the final act. You have to get on the ride and process it until the end. The songs are meant to be heard from start to finish. We want you to take the whole trip with us.”

James Hype

James Hype had spent his early career cutting his teeth amongst the club circuits in the North of England. His high energy DJ sets and forward thinking production, fusing the urban music world with house and garage, are propelling him to the attention of the major players in the music industry, as proven by his official remix duties on OT Genasis ‘Cut It’ and Yo Gotti ‘Down in the DMs’.

His ‘Hotline Bling’ Remix has amassed over 2 million plays, and countless downloads to boot, which helped James in going viral by way of the music identification app, Shazam. With this, and gaining major support throughout the roster of BBC Radio One, James had pretty much got everyone’s attention, sealing club shows including Sankeys, Ibiza, BCM, Mallorca, Surrender, Las Vegas and Proud, London. Heading into 2016, James has already notched up an exclusive mix on Mistajam’s peak time show on Radio One, and appeared on Kiss FM as well as his major label remix duties. With the iHeartRadio Urban Remix of the year award to add to a fast moving and impressive resume, the name is living up to the hype.

Sepultura

Sepultura is a phenomenon. For over twenty-five years, the band from Brazil has been delivering a brutal mix of metal, hardcore, thrash, punk and tribal that could hardly be more intense or more passionate. What had begun in Belo Horizonte in 1984 soon turned into a metal hurricane of threatening proportions and has taken on undreamt-of dimensions since the enlistment of American vocalist Derrick Green in 1998. You have to experience this band live on stage to understand the fascination that this South-American act holds. And Sepultura's current songs always indicate the future of heavy metal.

SEPULTURA BIO 2016 (by Dom Lawson)

Class is eternal and metal is forever. The road to heavy music glory is littered with the shattered corpses of those that didn’t have the strength to complete the journey. But true masters always win through, and Sepultura have long since earned their status as legends of the metal world. In 2017, they return with more fire in their collective belly than ever before. Machine Messiah is coming…

Formed in Belo Horizonte, Brazil, in 1984, Sepultura swiftly became major players in the burgeoning thrash metal underground. With a sound that was as inventive and exuberant as it was raw and primitive, the band shattered preconceptions by planting South America firmly on the metal map, as early albums like Morbid Visions, Schizophrenia and Beneath The Remains helped to shape the sound of this new, brutal strain of heavy music. With a dogged devotion to touring anywhere and everywhere, Sepultura steadily built up one of the most dedicated fan bases on the planet, and while the ‘90s caused many metal bands to struggle creatively and commercially, the Brazilians went from strength to strength: both 1993’s Chaos AD and its groundbreaking follow-up Roots in 1996 were instant classics and have since proved to be hugely influential on several generations of metal musicians.

The departure of frontman and founder member Max Cavalera in 1997 could easily have derailed a less focused outfit, but the recruitment of vocalist Derrick Green later that same year proved to be a masterstroke. The last two decades have seen Sepultura evolve, diversify and thrive, releasing a steady succession of devastating records that have added great depth and diversity to the band’s illustrious catalogue. From the scattershot euphoria of Green’s first album Against in 1998 and the snarling groove barrage of 2003’s Roorback to the gleaming, riff-driven futurism of 2011’s Kairos and the Ross Robinson-produced mutant extremity of the widely acclaimed The Mediator Between Head And Hands Must Be The Heart, released in 2013, Sepultura’s progress has been perpetual and their artistic integrity impeccable. Ever more revered as a destructive and exhilarating live band, the current lineup of Derrick Green, guitarist Andreas Kisser, bassist Paulo Jr. and drummer Eloy Casagrande recently celebrated Sepultura’s 30th anniversary with an unrelenting world tour that confirmed beyond doubt that the Brazilian crew are on the form of their lives right now.

Fast-forward to 2017 and Sepultura are poised to release an album that promises to once again reaffirm the band’s status as standard bearers for heavy music. Recorded with esteemed producer and engineer Jens Bogren (Opeth/Kreator/Ihsahn/Paradise Lost) manning the controls, Machine Messiah is not just the band’s 14th studio album – a remarkable enough feat in itself – but it is also quite simply the most complete and absorbing album the band have made in the Derrick Green era. Thrillingly broad in musical scope but always firmly rooted in the spirit and fire of no-nonsense heavy metal, it is clearly an album that the band have crafted with great love, passion and determination.

“We worked a lot in Brazil, doing as much pre-production as we could, to make it as complete as possible,” Andreas Kisser explains. “So when the producer comes, he comes with his suggestions and ideas and we refine the songs and then finally record it all. Jens was an amazing addition to the project. He’s a great producer. He’s very attentive to the details. I’m very happy with the sound – Jens mixed the album as well, in Sweden. We had an amazing time over there. We’re very excited about this record and we can’t wait for the it to come out!”

Ranging from the stately menace of the slow-burning title track and the heads-down fury of classic thrasher I Am The Enemy to the esoteric percussive riot of Phantom Self and the monstrous dark metal behemoth of Sworn Oath, Machine Messiah strikes an exquisite balance between delivering the goods and veering joyously off-piste. An album of meticulously crafted songs, but also of jaw-dropping individual moments, it reaches an epic and invigorating crescendo with the glowering, nightmarish Cyber God, as one of Kisser’s finest ever solos spirals, soars and fades to black. A towering achievement and a bona fide team effort, Machine Messiah may just be the finest Sepultura album yet.

“There are lots of new elements on this record, and that’s something we always do,” says the guitarist. “We always put 100% energy and passion into it. We talk about everything a lot, especially when it comes to the lyrics and finding the best way to express what we want to say. Derrick did his best job on this record. His voice sounds amazing and he can really sing! He really took over the lyrical part this time, too. Everyone was really professional. Even Paulo worked on his bass arrangements at home by himself, which he’s never done before! That’s what we need in Sepultura. I think this is one of our best albums, because it’s a real band effort.”

Armed with their finest album in decades and itching to get back on the road to share their new music with the faithful, Sepultura have never been in such a confident and content state of mind. Machine Messiah emerges into a troubled world, but its extraordinary contents are guaranteed to lift the spirits of any loyal metalhead. This is metal with a giant heart, a head full of inspiration and one foot planted squarely on the accelerator. The messiah is coming. Praise be!

“It’s a privilege to be in a band like Sepultura, 32 years into a career, and these are possibly the best times of all for us,” says Kisser. “It took a long time after Max left, we lost everything, so it took a while to rebuild everything and to find the right people to do stuff for us, but we’re in a good place now and we’re really excited about 2017. I love touring, man! We can’t wait to get back out there. Onstage is where the time stops and you lose your connection with reality and go somewhere else, and you have that exchange of energy with the crowd. It’s life - pure life.”

Vanessa Da Mata

Em 10 de fevereiro de 1976 nasce Vanessa da Mata, na cidade de Alto Garças, em Mato Grosso.

Em 1990, Vanessa muda-se para Uberlândia com o intuito de se preparar melhor para o vestibular de Medicina, ao mesmo tempo que decide se dedicar, também, à música. Um ano depois, faz sua estreia nos bares da cidade mineira cantando um repertório variado entre MPB e reggae.

Em 1993 muda-se para São Paulo. Em 1995, já na capital paulista, entra para Shalla-Ball, uma banda de reggae formada só por mulheres. Depois para jamaicana Black Uhuru e, em seguida, para o grupo de ritmos brasileiros Mafuá. Simultaneamente, Vanessa divide seu tempo modelando e jogando basquete.

O ano de 1997 foi um divisor de águas na vida de Vanessa. Ela conhece o cantor e compositor Chico César, com quem passa a compor.

Em 1999, a faixa "A Força Que Nunca Seca", composta por Vanessa e melodia de Chico César, é gravada por Maria Bethânia e dá nome ao álbum da cantora, que é indicado ao Grammy Latino, no ano seguinte. Aos 21 anos, Vanessa concorre Grammy Latino como melhor música, tendo uma letra como nome do disco.

Bethânia e Caetano Veloso gravam, em 2001, outra música de autoria de Vanessa. Desta vez, ela registra “O Canto de Dona Sinhá”, do álbum “Maricotinha”. E, aos 22 anos, foi convidada para cantar com a cantora baiana e Caetano no DVD "Noite Luzidia", em homenagem aos 35 anos de carreira de Bethânia.

O início efetivo da carreira solo de Vanessa da Mata aconteceu em 2002. Após destacadas participações em shows de Milton Nascimento, Maria Bethânia e de Baden Powell, ela lança seu primeiro álbum de estúdio, “Vanessa da Mata”, com produção de Liminha, Jaques Morelenbaum, Luiz Brasil, Dadi e do sempre presente Kassin. Os destaques ficam por conta de “Nossa Canção”, trilha sonora da novela “Celebridade”, “Não Me Deixe Só”, que estoura nas pistas com o remix de Ramilson Maia, e “Onde Ir”, da novela “Esperança”.

Depois do grande sucesso com seu primeiro disco, Vanessa lança em 2004 outro trabalho que recebe ótimas críticas e faz crescer ainda mais sua legião de seguidores. “Essa Boneca Tem Manual”, produzido por Liminha, traz o mega hit "Ai ai ai...". Outros sucessos são ''Ainda Bem'' e "Não Chore Homem". Destaque também para as regravações de “Eu sou Neguinha” (Caetano Veloso), que entra na novela “A Lua me disse”, e "História de uma gata" (Chico Buarque).

Em 2006, “Ai ai ai...” torna-se a música nacional mais executada nas rádios. A ótima vendagem de “Essa Boneca Tem Manual” rende um Disco de Platina à cantora. Conquista o Prêmio Multishow de Melhor Música com "Ai, Ai, Ai".

O terceiro álbum de Vanessa da Mata chega ao mercado em 2007: “Sim”. Produzido por Kassin e Mario Caldato, o CD teve cinco faixas gravadas na Jamaica com a participação dos ícones locais Sly & Robbie.

A grande parceria foi o astro americano Ben Harper, com quem Vanessa divide os vocais na canção “Boa Sorte/Good Luck”, sucesso absoluto nas rádios, sendo a mais tocada do ano no Brasil e Portugal, e umas das mais tocadas na Europa.

Em 2008, a música “Amado”, do disco “Sim”, é tema principal da novela “A Favorita”, da Rede Globo.

Vanessa ganha o Grammy Latino na categoria Melhor Álbum de Pop Contemporâneo Brasileiro, com "Sim", além da indicação para Melhor Canção Brasileira com "Acode". Conquista o Prêmio Multishow de Melhor Música com "Boa Sorte/Good Luck".

Em 2009, a cantora lança o CD/DVD "Multishow ao Vivo Vanessa da Mata", registrado na bucólica cidade histórica de Paraty (RJ), em comemoração aos seus seis anos de sucesso. Para promover o trabalho, a canção "Vermelho" é lançada nas rádios. Conquista o Prêmio Multishow de Melhor Música com "Amado".

Três anos após o lançamento de um álbum com músicas inéditas, chega às lojas "Bicicletas, Bolos e Outras Alegrias", com a produção assinada por Kassin. Das 12 faixas inéditas, uma é fruto de uma parceria com Lokua Kanza, "Vá", e outra com Gilberto Gil, "Quando Amanhecer".

Em 2011, Vanessa da Mata compõe "Boa Reza” e grava, em parceria com Seu Jorge e o grupo Almaz, a música para o mais recente álbum da organização Red Hot, o “Red Hot+Rio 2”. "Bicicletas, Bolos e Outras Alegrias" é indicado ao Grammy Latino, na categoria Melhor Álbum de Pop Contemporâneo Brasileiro.

Em fevereiro de 2013, foi confirmada a participação de Vanessa da Mata no projeto “Viva Tom Jobim”. Foi convidada para estrelar uma série de seis shows gratuitos em seis capitais brasileiras (150 mil pessoas em São Paulo, lotando todos os metrôs, no Rio Janeiro 120 mil expectadores), com direção e curadoria de Monique Gardenberg e produção musical de Kassin.

Em julho, “Vanessa da Mata canta Tom Jobim” se torna o quinto álbum de estúdio da cantora.

“Segue o Som” é o sexto álbum de estúdio, lançado em 25 de março de 2014 pela Sony Music. Com produção assinada pela dupla Kassin e Liminha, "Segue o Som" traz 14 faixas no repertório, incluindo a regravação de "Sunshine On My Shoulders", de John Denver.

Em 2017 chega “Caixinha de Música (Ao Vivo), o segundo álbum ao vivo da cantora, lançado em 29 de setembro de 2017 pela Sony Music e DVD gravado na Casa Natura Musical, em São Paulo.

Em 2019, Vanessa da Mata se aventurou pela primeira vez como produtora musical em “Quando Deixamos Nossos Beijos na Esquina", sétimo álbum de estúdio, o mais autoral de todos e um dos mais aclamados discos da carreira. O primeiro single lançado, a ensolarada "Só Você e Eu", já dava o tom do que o disco seria por inteiro: um apanhado de histórias sobre a vida e o amor.

O repertório segue com “Tenha Dó de Mim” (part. Baco Exú do Blues e guitarra de Davi Moraes), “Quando Deixamos Nossos Beijos na Esquina”, “Ajoelha e Reza”, “Nossa Geração”, “Demais pra Mim”, “Debaixo da Saia Dela”, “Vá com Deus”, “Dance um Reggae Comigo”, “O Mundo para Felipe” e “Hoje Eu Sei”.

Para celebrar o sucesso, Vanessa lança o projeto “Nossos Beijos Ao Vivo No Circo Voador”, gravado na Lapa, no Rio de Janeiro, em 17 de janeiro de 2020.

Durante a pandemia a cantora realizou lives solidárias com a intenção de se aproximar do público e de angariar fundos para projetos sociais, além da live em homenagem a Clara Nunes que os ingressos foram revertidos para a equipe da cantora. Em setembro de 2020, Vanessa da Mata e Seu Jorge fizeram uma live no YouTube do Teatro Bradesco.

Em 1° de outubro de 2021, a artista recebeu da ONErpm a placa de Disco de Platina por Quando Deixamos Nossos Beijos na Esquina (2019), sétimo álbum de estúdio e um dos mais aclamados pelo público e crítica especializada.

No fim do mesmo mês, Vanessa da Mata e Marcelo Falcão lançaram “Nação de Passarinhos”, música que trazia a ansiedade pela liberdade e recomeço. A parceria ganhou um clipe com imagens dos artistas em estúdio.

Em janeiro de 2022, Ivete Sangalo e Vanessa da Mata se juntaram em "Tudo Bateu", canção que faz parte do projeto Onda Boa, da HBO Max.

Dois meses depois, a Amazon Music e a UBC – União Brasileira de Compositores - lançaram o documentário “Cantautoras: O canto autoral da mulher brasileira”, projeto com apresentação e narração de Vanessa da Mata, que também participa como entrevistada.

Conciliando a agenda de shows por todo o Brasil, a cantora lançou o clipe de “Hoje Eu Sei”, uma das faixas mais emocionantes do disco Quando Deixamos Nossos Beijos na Esquina, composta pelo cantor, compositor e músico sueco Jonas Myrin.

Agora, a Vanessa encerra 2022 com o primeiro single de seu próximo álbum. A primeira música de seu novo projeto, “Vem Doce”, foi escrita e delineada a partir de uma base instrumental do produtor Papatinho, sendo essa a primeira parceria dos dois.

Nova Twins

Over the last few years, Nova Twins have become one of the most celebrated and transformative forces in contemporary music. Since bursting out of the independent UK scene, the Mercury Music Prize and two-time BRIT Award nominees have rewritten the rulebook of what a modern rock band can achieve. Praised by icons like Tom Morello and Elton John they’ve dominated festivals from the UK’s Glastonbury to Japan’s Summer Sonic and shared stages with legends like Foo Fighters, Muse, and Bring Me The Horizon. In 2022 their Mercury Music Prize shortlisting inked Love and South’s names in the history books as the first black rock band to receive a nomination, a victory not just for the duo, but for music culture itself.

Renowned for their electrifying live performances, Nova Twins are equally celebrated for their singular sound. Every note is the product of real instrumentation - bass and guitar teased, pulled, pushed, and manipulated through tap-dancing across an expansive pedalboard. Paired with a rich, inventive vocal approach, their music achieves an unmistakable identity without a synthesizer in sight.

Now entering a bold new era, Nova Twins have unveiled “Monsters,” a blistering statement of intent that combines roaring power with honest vulnerability, offering a glimpse of what’s to come. With an album on the horizon, South and Love are poised to push boundaries further, elevating their genre-defying sound to new and exhilarating heights.

Aos 38 anos, já coleciona quatro álbuns, diversas indicações e prêmios, além de se tornar referência da música popular brasileira contemporânea. Voz ativa na militância racial e feminista, Luedji Luna mergulha em sua ancestralidade e traz em sua arte mensagens fortes de luta, crenças, profundidade e amor.

Seu primeiro álbum “Um Corpo no Mundo” (2017) a consagrou na cena nacional e rendeu os primeiros destaques em premiações, festivais e mídia. Em 2021, lançou “Bom Mesmo É Estar Debaixo D'água" que, entre tantas nomeações e topos de listas globais, a levou para a indicação de “Melhor Álbum de MPB” do Grammy Latino 2021. O álbum ganhou uma versão deluxe em 2022, onde a artista explora sonoridades como o neo soul, R&B e jazz. Com 10 faixas autorais, também apresenta parcerias com compositores já conhecidos em seus trabalhos anteriores.

Em 2024, Luedji Luna deu voz ao tema de abertura da novela “Renascer” exibida pela Rede Globo. A artista também realizou sua primeira apresentação no festival Rock in Rio, que aconteceu em setembro. Luedji subiu ao palco Sunset no dia 20, data em que o festival contou apenas com atrações femininas, convidando Tássia Reis e Xênia França - com quem dividiu “Lua Soberana”, tema da novela - para uma noite de muita música e celebração. Também lançou a festa Manto da Noite, onde entrou como CEO e curadora, com o objetivo ser um contraponto dos eventos/festivais no Brasil, para um público mais nichado.

A cantora conta, ainda, com participações em projetos musicais reconhecidos globalmente, como o Colors e o Tiny Desk com Afropunk.

Antdot

Antdot has become one of the leading names in Brazilian electronic music, due to his unique sound that blends Afro House, Melodic House, and Organic House with regional Brazilian rhythms such as samba and baião, as well as elements of Brazilian Popular Music (MPB). This distinctive style highlights the creativity of Bruno Gustavo, the talent behind Antdot, making it a major hallmark of Dawn Patrol, the record label he co-owns with Maz.

Alongside Maz, his label partner and friend, Antdot has made history by opening the mainstage at Tomorrowland Belgium with their unique Brazilian afro house sound. Antdot also played the Crystal Garden stage at Tomorrowland Belgium, besides performing at major clubs and festivals around Brazil and the world, including Hi Ibiza, Core Medellin, Cercle, Green Valley, Laroc Club, Warung Beach Club, Tomorrowland Brasil, Rock in Rio, and Planeta Brasil. Antdot has made a name for himself in the music industry. He’s not only been blessed with a dedicated fanbase, but also receives consistent supports by heavyweights like Keinemusik, Camelphat, Stephan Jolk and Vintage Culture, to name a few.

As co-founder of Dawn Patrol Records, Antdot played a major role in the label's success. His collaborations with Maz have established a residency in Beatport’s Afro House Chart: tracks like "Povoada" and “Corpo e Canção” topped #1, an array of conquests that highlight the impact of Dawn Patrol Records on the music scene.

PJ Morton

It all starts and ends with the music.

For PJ Morton, the songs, records, and shows say everything that needs to be said—and more. Whether performing, playing, or producing, the GRAMMY® Award- and Dove® Award-winning singer, songwriter, producer, multi-instrumentalist, Morton Records founder, and Maroon 5 keyboardist fills one timeless role most comfortably, that of a “Music Man.”

In doing so, he consistently crafts work of a classic caliber on stage and in the studio.

“I’ve been blessed to communicate through songs better than words or anything else,” he admits. “I believe in the power of music and honesty. When those two things come together, there’s nothing more powerful. I endeavor to be a true ‘Music Man’ who loves these instruments and the lineage that got us here. It doesn’t matter if I’m putting out another artist on my label, making material of my own, producing someone else, or in Maroon 5, I’m a ‘Music Man’ in every way.”

2019 upheld this claim for Morton. Recorded live and released under Morton Records, Gumbo Unplugged garnered a 2019 GRAMMY® in the category of “Best Traditional R&B Performance” for “How Deep Is Your Love” [feat. Yebba] among three nominations. His total back-to-back tally of solo nominations is now five, including a pair of 2018 GRAMMY® nods for the original Gumbo. Just a week prior to the ceremony, he walked on to the world’s biggest stage and delivered a historic performance alongside Maroon 5 at Super Bowl LIII.

These moments marked a much-deserved victory lap for the consummate musician. Throughout 2018, he continued a steady expansion of his growing discography. He composed the score for YouTube Premium’s critically acclaimed comedy series Champaign ILL and penned the theme to OWN’s Ready to Love. Not to mention, he wrapped up a heartfelt holiday album, Christmas With PJ Morton, which Entertainment Weekly dubbed “this year’s surprise stocking stuffer.” He touched down on a total of four continents during the six-month Gumbo World Tour, selling out gigs everywhere from Spain and Japan to Seoul, Korea.

At the same time, he focused on further building his company. He grew the roster by way of flagship signings The Amours and producer Erick Bardales. Two Washington D.C.-bred sisters, The Amours traveled the world as part of the label founder’s band and could be heard on Gumbo Unplugged as backing vocalists. As Morton manned the board as producer and executive producer back in New Orleans, the pair cooked up a striking, simmering, and soulful debut for 2019.

“Morton Records is starting to become what I envisioned it to be outside of my solo records,” he explains. “I really want to help other artists achieve success in their careers. I want to spotlight New Orleans talent, and I also want to give writers and producers a platform. I signed Erick first. After spending so much time on the road alongside The Amours, I really got to know them. It goes without saying they’re talented, but their character interested me more than anything else. We have a connection. It felt like an organic, natural progression for them to be my first artist.”

Morton has quietly, independently, and humbly secured his position at the forefront of 21st century soul and R&B. In 2017, Gumbo bowed in the Top 10 of the Billboard Heatseekers Albums Chart and received praise from The Washington Post and The Advocate, to name a few. Generating over 30 million cumulative streams in under three years, he regularly averages over half-a-million monthly listeners on Spotify. Meanwhile, 2013’s New Orleans received a 2014 GRAMMY® Award nomination in the category of “Best R&B Song” for “Only One” [feat. Stevie Wonder]. Putting it best, Pitchfork described the project as “a smooth and soulful pop/R&B hybrid.”

In addition to figuring prominently on Maroon 5’s multiplatinum Overexposed, V, and Red Pill Blues, he has written and produced for everybody from BJ The Chicago Kid, Jermaine Dupri, and Jazmine Sullivan to Monica and India.Arie, winning a GRAMMY® for collaborating with the latter in 2008. His compositions have also popped up in films such as Couples Retreat and more. Among many other accolades, he has received Dove® and Stellar® Awards, published his literary debut Why Can’t I Sing About Love? in 2009, and become music director for Solange following the release of her critically acclaimed opus A Seat At The Table.

In the end, he embodies the spirit of a “Music Man” through and through as he redefines the term for a new era.

“If Gumbo, Gumbo Unplugged, and the label have taught me anything, it’s to bet on myself and bet on the things that make me different instead of trying to focus on what could make me the same as other artists,” he leaves off. “We’re clear and confident about who we are as individuals. The creative freedom extends to Morton Records. I want people to always expect us to do something different, special, and creatively free. I also want to give back to my city and display my passion for New Orleans. It’s the best thing I can do with all of this.”

Hamilton De Holanda

Hamilton de Holanda carrega na bagagem a fusão do incentivo familiar com o bacharelado em Composição pela Universidade de Brasília e a prática das rodas de choro e samba. Essa identidade o permite transitar com tranquilidade pelas mais diferentes formações (solo, duo, trio, quarteto, quinteto, orquestra), consolidando, assim, uma maneira de expor ideias musicais e impressões sobre a vida com "o coração na ponta dos dedos".

Hoje, depois de adicionar duas cordas extras - 10 no total -, reinventa o bandolim e liberta o emblemático instrumento brasileiro do legado de algumas de suas influências e gêneros. O aumento do número de cordas, aliado à velocidade de solos e improvisos, inspira uma nova geração a se aproximar do bandolim e de conceber formações com uma nova instrumentação.

A busca de Hamilton não é pelo novo, e sim por uma música focada na beleza e na espontaneidade. Diante dele, existe um novo mundo cheio de possibilidades. Seu norte é "Moderno é Tradição", e o importante não é o passado, nem o futuro, mas, sim, a intercessão onde esses dois se confundem, a vida no momento presente, no "é", no aqui e agora.

Hamilton é um músico de estilo único. Passeia por diversos gêneros tendo o bandolim como aglutinador de ideias. A atmosfera sem raízes na Brasília onde cresceu o fez se apropriar das mais diferentes tradições culturais com muito samba, frevo e bossa nova, entre outros estilos. A Música Popular Brasileira é a sua matriz desde o início.

Badi Assad

Jazziz praised Brazilian guitarist Badi Assad (pronounced Bah-Jee Ah-Sahje) as "a virtuoso of the highest order" while Guitar Player pegged her as "fearless!"

Wonderland, her second for Deutsche Grammophone is not only an album fantasy and hope; it is also a plea for some sanity in this insane world of ours. The CD touches on many taboo topics including rape, prejudice, child prostitution and loss of cultural identity. Assad beautifully puts her own stamp on Tori Amos' "Black Dove" and oozes sensuality on "Sweet Dreams" by the Eurythmics. The album also features special guest Seu Jorge on "Vacilão" as well as members of the Assad clan on many tracks. In her liner notes Badi stated; "Wonderland is a place where everything seems to make sense, even the impossible." With a voice as hypnotic as hers, it is easy to get lost in the melody and be taken to a far away place where peace is not only a wish but a reality!

After honing her craft as a vocalist, Badi released Solo in 1994 on independent label Chesky making her a force to be reckoned with in the guitar world. Her international fame grew with the 1995 release of Rhythms which was voted "Best Classical Album of the Year" by Guitar Player's Reader's Poll while the editors voted her "Best Acoustic Fingerstyle Player." Badi's first major label record, Chameleon, was released in 1997 on Verve Records to much critical acclaim. After taking some time for herself back in Brazil, 2003 proved to be an exciting year with the release of Three Guitars on Chesky Records which she recorded with two amazing guitar players- Larry Coryell and John Abercrombie. Getting back to her solo career, Badi's edge/Deutsche Grammophon debut Verde was released in September 2005 to much praise. Global Rhythm stated Badi's vocals were luscious" and the album was "exquisite." Of her live show, The Los Angeles Times thought Assad was "mesmerizing."

Ceu

Brazilian songstress Céu was born Maria do Céu Whitaker Poças on 17 April 1980. She was raised in São Paulo, Brazil in a highly saturated musical environment. Her father was a composer, arranger, musicologist, and classical music enthusiast and naturally she inherited much of her father’s inclination towards music.

Jota Quest

Jota Quest é uma banda pop brasileira criada em Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais. Seu nome anterior era Johnny Quest, mas devido a alguns problemas burocráticos com a Hanna-Barbera do Brasil, eles adotaram seu apelido mais famoso, "J Quest", e reescreveram para "Jota Quest".

Formada por Rogério Flausino (vocais), Marco Túlio (guitarra), Márcio Buzelin (teclados), P.J. (baixo) e Paulinho Fonseca (bateria), Jota Quest honrou a tradição da boa música de Minas Gerais e redefiniu a cena do pop-rock brasileiro.

Seu primeiro disco foi J. Quest, onde beberam da era disco para criar um som totalmente novo. Sua versão de "Dores do Mundo", escrita por Hyldon nos anos 70, rapidamente ganhou as paradas, seguida por outras, e eles fizeram turnê por todo o Brasil. Para essa primeira turnê, costumavam entrar no palco com perucas "black power".

O segundo lançamento foi De Volta ao Planeta, com mais um monte de sucessos. O tema era "A Volta ao Planeta dos Macacos" e eles costumavam usar máscaras de macaco em algumas músicas nos concertos. As músicas também eram muito funky e groovy. É muito difícil não dançar com a música do Jota Quest.

Eles tentaram coisas diferentes no terceiro disco, Oxigênio. Ele se afastou da pista de dança, com melodias e sons mais ricos. O reconhecimento do público e as vendas do álbum não foram muito impressionantes.

Voltando à fórmula vencedora com "Discotecagem Pop Variada", seu quarto álbum, eles se consolidaram como uma das maiores bandas do Brasil. Foi rapidamente seguido por "MTV Ao Vivo", um CD/DVD mostrando uma de suas performances em um concerto gratuito na Praça do Papa, em sua cidade natal, Belo Horizonte.

O quinto álbum de estúdio, Até Onde Vai, foi recentemente lançado enquanto continuam sua jornada de sucesso de trazer boa música e alegria para o mundo.
