Fabinho 44 is a composer, producer and performer with a master’s degree in production and jazz drums.
He develops unique sound-scapes by introducing the complexity of rhythm and percussion culture to electronic music.
«There’s a whole new generation coming up, blurring the lines between where the musician and the machine begins the creative journey in music making. I’m not talking about some AI revolution; I’m talking about highly skilled musicians taking control of the possibilities in mixing acoustic elements and electronic soundscapes. Fabinho 44 is a true instigator in this field. The music of the African diaspora has been present since the birth of House and Techno, and with his Brazilian roots, Fabinho 44 is contributing to that trajectory in a playful and respectful way, creating new forms by fusing his drumming and percussion innovations with the aesthetics of Techno. I’m looking forward to following his endeavors.»

«Fabinho 44 ist ein außergewöhnliches Talent, das bisher ungehörte Kombinationen rhythmischer Kulturen dieser Welt auf einzigartige Weise verschmelzen lässt. Als multi-kultureller Drummer beherrscht er das Vokabular der verschiedenen Kontinente und übersetzt deren Sprache mit großer Sensibilität in seinen eigenen künstlerischen Ausdruck. Mit immensem Gespür formt er als herausragender Producer eine faszinierende Klangwelt, die elektronische Innovation und traditionelle Rhythmuskulturen vereint – einfach fantastisch!»
