Guilherme da Luz - Music and me

It was (and still is) a mystery and a wonder affair. In the beginning, I asked myself: “What is this? What is this kind of music?”. And I felt urged to lie down and let myself go into the inner space… and what a joy! … as a summer´s breeze , it was an oasis away from all that senseless reality. At the time, I was only a teenager. With the years passing this feeling only became stronger and I feel more and more attracted to this path, the one which is my own.

My musical influences come mostly from the the early 70′s. This is a period which I love because it was the time for mature and introspective psychedelics after the “breakthrough to the other side” of the 60′s. Moreover, it’s was a time when paths hadn’t yet been defined, thus musicians had the freedom to express themselves in any direction.

Their lifestyle also showed the innocence and curiosity of a child, for instance, some developed a totally different perspective of time and space whilst others came true with a new vision of life, free from old patterns and enforced boundaries. They were more interested in art and the creative process, instead of looking for fame or success.

Last but not least, the new analog technology opened the way to radically different and truly amazing sounds never heard before.

… and it was here that my path began!
