What can an "Alien Actor" - stuck in his room, creating soundscapes based on movies of his own mind – conceive? Psychedelia, wild mood swings, dreams, parallel universes, and a nonsense twisted and faked until it finally makes deep sense. This Brazilian Composer's music evokes extreme emotions and ideas, highlighting the diverse imagery within the musical textures. AlienAqtor has released many albums in Brazil, the USA, France, and other countries. Today he composes soundtracks for short films and feature length movies. His sounds are awesome, dark and sometimes as scary as Hell.
AlienAqtor was created in 1999 with a sum of wide open sound and vision influences. In 2001, his demo CD "O Alienador EP" had a pretty positive review published on Brazilian mag DJ World.
In 2002 & 2003 the American label Moron Labs (Austin, TX) launched two of his tracks on the CD compilations "Look What I Cooked" Vols. 1 & 2: "Elecktruthfuck" and "Spread The Spell."
EPs and tracks were released on Netlabels from 2006 on: "Tales of Psychotropicdaelia EP" (Shkart, Macedonia), "First Schizophrenic Pupil Ep" (Digital Enemy, Sao Paulo, Brazil) and the "Astral Baby (2006 Extended Remix)" track on "SDLC 3.2 – Move Your Ass Baby" compilation (Salon de La Composition, France).
In 2007, AlienAqtor had six compositions on "Era dos Mortos (Era of The Dead)" independent 40 min horror movie. A dubstep mix by Bruno Belluomini brought attention to "Destrutiva Era" track, which was featured at Psicotropicodelia Music Netlabel Vol. 2 compilation.
In 2009, he kept releasing music on 4m@-records and Proc-Records netlabels, and more music is on the way during 2010.
"Souls in Transit": a spiritual/ghostly, minimalist track on "Tales of Psychotropicdaelia", done with plenty of chorus vocals and spooky vibes. Just like the other EP compositions, it's a little experience in psychedelic cinematic soundscapes: trying to capture the atmosphere of haunting movies. Vocal Samples, Electronic, IDM
An uplifting, experimental electro/synthpop tune, which marked a turning point for the whole production work, from 2003 on it became less minimalist, and went further on blending of styles. Originally conceived as a vocal track, themed on dreams, obsession and lust. Vocal Samples, Electronic, Electro
A small psychedelic/experimental track which was specially prepared for the third instalment on Soulseek Records' One Minute Massacre series. It fuses oldschool rave era synths, mad breakbeats, b-movie samples and glitches/lil noises. A funny experience I assure:], Vocal Samples, Electronic, Experimental
As a zombie movies' fan, I decided to make my little funny homage to them: this track is an electro/idm parody, plenty on mad vocoders and samples, on the classic "it came from outterspace" meets "the undead" vibes. Frenetic and pulsating, it might be re-recorded soon and gain a video, await! Vocal Samples, Electronic, Electro
Another zombie homage track, this time on a more straightforward way... First section goes like a collage of sounds and effects from a proper movie, including a classy oldschool presentation; second flows on a breakstep/idm vibe, backed up by the zombies' groans and murmurs... Enjoy the experience! Vocal Samples, Electronic, Experimental
Opening track from "Tales of Psychotropicdaelia EP", it is an ambient/idm track with a horror score/soundtrack feel, using vocal samples from Evil Dead I & II movies. Add to those some dark synths/ sub-basses & bell sounds, and we haver this little creepy experiment. Vocal Samples, Electronic, IDM
"Death Perceives Itself": originally a portuguese poem about a 'two-men duel and the resulting deaths', written and recorded in studio by Maurício Matos. This version is a dark, psychedelic and cinematic insight upon those verses, using echoes and reverbs for reinforcing their impact. Spoken Word, Electronic, Experimental
A track conceived as a "surreal" outflow to a tiresome mind of whom works a lot [i was doin 8 to 10 hs a day at the time] and hasn't much time for fun. Losing sense of thought, ever slowing mind, twistin' ideas... Influences go from concrete music [Stockhausen, Xenakis] to idm/noise [Plaid, u-Ziq], Male Vocals, Electronic, IDM
A melodic downtempo track that owes a lot to dreams and childhood memories. Sounds a bit like a fantasy/abstract soundtrack, with mysterious voices including a little girl talking about nightmares, whispers, hot beats, and a chill vibe. Hot for games, mystery video, fantasy, teenage fear, paranoia, Vocal Samples, Dangerous, Psychedelic
Probably the most abstract and glitchy of the lot, it is a "mathematical mix" by german producer Syntax, by changing the sample rate and slicing/cutting some freq's on the original track. This truly empirical experiment was on "Tales of Psycotropicdaelia" EP, though being done some 2 years earlier, Vocal Samples, Electronic, IDM
An extremely experimental 3-section track: first one was published @ Soulseek Records' 1 Minute-Massacre Vol. 3 project; second was an old homey vocal recording; and third a bouncy electro-breaks tune called "Rascal". One of my faves ever and also part of "Tales of Psychotropicdaelia" EP (2006). Male Vocals, Electronic, Experimental
