Urban Sound Project

Chill out with an attitude

About Me

In English:
Urban Sound Project is designed to bring an enjoyable, modern and classy music show or listening environment to any corporate event, product presentation, parties/celebrations of any sort, restaurants, hotels, lounges, coffee shops, weddings, or any other situation where its music would be suitable.
The repertoire gathers a variety of “Chill Out” styles (tranquil world music, merged with electronic, modern and ethnic elements at the same time) such as New Age, Trip Hop, Acid Jazz, Bossa Nova, Alternative, among others, consisting mostly of covers interpreted with original Urban Sound Project arrangements.
Urban Sound Project is conformed by Ari Lotringer, who arranges the tracks and plays live electric and acoustic guitars as well as live keyboards. Graduated from L.A.M.A. (Los Angeles Music Academy) in 2002, teacher and director of the electric guitar department at InNova Music School since late 2002, he has played with many bands ranging from pop to hard and progressive rock, from blues and r&b to jazz, funk and brazilian music, even reggae roots and dub, as well as electronic and industrial. Ari played at the XIII International Guitar Festival as a soloist in 2006 sharing the stage with Bill MacPherson and Andy Summers (guitar player of the band "The Police"). He played in several occasions with Jean Michel Byron (former Singer of the band “TOTO”). He has also performed with bands such as Peregrino Gris (irish/celtic music), Blue Jazz, Smooth, Jazz & Something Else (r&b/soul/jazz/brasilian), Northern (jazz/ska), Mekatelyu (reggae roots/funk), Mustang 65 (blues/rock/grunge), among others. He is also the main guitarist of the band ”Time’s Forgotten” with whom he recorded and released his first record in August – 2006, and it is already selling even in some European countries. Time’s Forgotten was invited to play in early 2007 at XI Baja Prog Festival in Mexico, which is one of the world’s most acclaimed progressive music festivals, sharing the stage with great musicians.
