Nasci em 1978 e comecei a estudar música aos 12 anos, com aulas de piano. A partir daí toquei teclado em bandas de rock. Desde essa época ouvia muita música, de todas as vertentes do rock – Pink Floyd, Led Zepellin, Yes, Jimi Hendrix, AC/DC, Dire Straits, Iron Maiden, Metallica, Mutantes . Em 1998 passei dois meses em Nova York estudando inglês e então, tomei contato mais a fundo com os gêneros blues e jazz. E foi uma imersão total: Miles, Chick Corea, Bill Evans, Weather Report, Pastorious, Thelonious Monk, Charlie Parker, Hermeto, Nana Vasconcelos, BB King, Robert Johnson, Muddy Waters, Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, Nuno Mendelis..., e por consequência, toda a bossa nova – Tom, Vinicius, João Gilberto, João Donato, Baden Powel. Logo depois comecei a ter aulas de harmonia e improvisação, e a perceber as primeiras idéias de composição. Durante esse período fiz faculdade de economia na PUC e me formei em 2000. Juntei uma grana trabalhando no Banco do Brasil e me mandei para Barcelona, com o objetivo de viver 1 ano por lá. Nesa hora tomei contato com outra vertente musical, a música eletrônica. Fui conhecendo pessoas desse mundo, frequentei um curso de audio digital e técnicas de gravação. Formei uma banda de acid jazz, lounge e new bossa, chamada Menazz, onde tocávamos nossas composições e versões de outras bandas da cena. Quando voltei para o Brasil em 2002, renovei o meu antigo estúdio de ensaios e o transformei num local profissional para produção musical. A partir daí comecei a desenvolver meu projeto de música eletrônica (nu jazz, lounge)– danilo R, e também gravar e produzir outros artistas. Em 2004 entrei na faculdade de Composição e Regência da Unesp, e em 2006 participei do Festival de Inverno de Campos do Jordão como bolsista de Gravação de Orquestra. Desde então tenho feito gravações de concertos e recitais em teatros e outros lugares. Em 2007 fiz uma viagem pela Bolívia, Peru e Chile com a Rita; o que me inspirou a compor esses novos temas. Nova série de composições - em 2008 - chamada Organic.
I was born in 1978 and I started studying music at 12, having piano classes. I played keybords in several rock bands, and I always listened to all different kinds of rock and roll - Pink Floyd, Led Zepellin, Yes, Jimi Hendrix, AC/DC, Dire Straits, Iron Maiden, Metallica, Mutantes . In 1998, I spent two months in New York studying English. There I had the opportunity to listen and have contact with a lot of live jazz and blues. This was really nice, I went deeply - Miles, Chick Corea, Bill Evans, Weather Report, Pastorious, Thelonious Monk, Charlie Parker, Hermeto, Nana Vasconcelos, BB King, Robert Johnson, Muddy Waters, Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, Nuno Mendelis..., and for sure all bossa nova – Tom, Vinicius, João Gilberto, João Donato, Baden Powel. I had classes of harmony and improvisation, then I realized the first composition ideas. During this period I went to the University, studiyng Economics - I have been graduated in 2000. I earned some money working at Brazil Bank and I decided to live in Barcelona for 1 year. There I had contact with the electronic scene and people who was making this music. I studied Digital Audio and Recording, and formed an acid jazz, new bossa lounge band. We played our own compositions and other versions of well known tracks of the moviment. I returned to Brazil in 2002 and renewed my ancient rehersal studio, witch has been transformed in a professional place for music production. So I started my electronic lounge and nu jazz project called danilo R; and to record and produce other artists. In 2004 I entered in Unesp to study Composition and Conducting, and in 2006 I went to Campos do Jordão Winter Festival with a fellowship in Classical Music Recording. Since then I have been making recordings of concerts in theaters and other places. In 2007 I had a trip to Bolivia, Peru and Chile with Rita, that inspired me to compose these new themes. In 2008 there is a new series of composition called Organic.
