Fabinho 44 is a composer and producer with a master’s degree in production and jazz drums.
He develops unique soundscapes 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 drum-
ming 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 rhyth-
mischer 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 faszi-
nierende Klangwelt, die elektronische Innovation und traditionelle Rhythmuskulturen
vereint – einfach fantastisch!»
