About
The brothers JrDeep 31, and Guilherme Lopes 27 years old, that form the Drumagick production team are the prince regents of Brazilian Drum'n'bass. Influenced by Marky and Patife's global breakthrough they are part of the crack team of drum'n'bass - They are getting closer and closer to becoming part of the drum'n'bass royal family.
The greatest form of flattery is imitation and many of the producers and labels in the ever-thriving drum'n 'bass fraternity tried to cash in on the Brazilian bug from the late nineties onwards. Some have done a good job, other results have been more questionable. Drumagick ARE quite simply the real deal – the genuine article – re-inventing and fashioning global music with its own genuine Latin take on it.
Drumagick similarly re-invented the samba, with a healthy diet of heavy bass, dancefloor funk and energetic melody, and made serious waves on this side of the Atlantic. This culminated in a debut LP "Ai Maluco" released on the SambaLoco imprint (Trama Records) that had been the brain behind and engine fuelling this revolution. This included collaborations with Max De Castro, XRS and Marky helped establish Drumagick as a force to be reckoned with. A live tour in South America ensued and exposed drum'n'bass to the masses in Brazil and inspired Latin America's youth... A new crop of heroes was born and Brazil was dancing to its beat.
Then came EASYBOOM... An instant classic from first hearing, rinsed by all even before its official release (it was included on Gilles Peterson's Worldwide compilation and reached No. 3 in the BBC Radio 1 All Winners chart in 2003) and it still sounds as fresh today as when it first came out. Remixes for two City of God soundtrack songs, a rework of Mitchell & Dewbury's "Beyond the Rains" have been just a few of the highlights post – Easyboom.
The guys went to Europe with their Live Band format in 2005 and 2006 spreading the word in the old continent for excellent audiences at places like London Koko, Manchester Academy, Jazz Café, Post Garage (Graz) and more. For the next year Drumagick is preparing their new Live Act based in their forthcoming album for the next European tour.
The newest project of the brothers is their own label called BMRecordings (same name of the DJ and Producers school based in Sao Paulo and founded by them 8 years ago). The BMR001 with the duo tracks “Class A” and “El Magnifico” and the BMR002 are already out with support of DJs like Marky, Makoto, Bryan Gee, Flight and Patife. The BMR002 remakes the already excellent partnership of XRS and the brazilian’s minister of culture Gilberto Gil on the track “Dia de Sol” now it’s coming with a Drumagick Remix to rock the dancefloors. Now the label is in its 3rd release from newcomers producers from Sao Paulo, the BMR003 with M Jazzy and Alex DB.
The next 12” from Drumagick is the INN27 from Innerground records with the tune “So Far Away”, in this beginning of 2009 the 12” will be on the stores and there are more tunes coming from the brothers very soon, keep on. The nu samba show is here to stay and it will continue to rock dance-floors from Brixton to Brooklyn.
