DJ Dolores burst onto the global club scene a couple of years ago with his explosive and highly original mixture of traditional sounds from the Brazilian northeast and dancefloor-friendly electronics and elements of rock and dub.
Drawing his inspiration from urban and rural musical styles traditionally shunned by the establishment but favoured by the working classes, DJ Dolores blends them with loops, breakbeats, street sounds and live instrumentation to create a unique musical cocktail which is culturally and politically meaningful, yet first and foremost irresistibly festive!
DJ Dolores won the 2004 BBC World Music Award (in the `Club Global' category) for his 2003 debut release on Sterns. 'Aparelhagem' takes his unique sound to the next level!
