Disco novo na área! Um Chopp E Um Sundae apavorando geral a malandragem. =D



Há cerca de meia dúzia de estações surgiu o Cosmo Shock. Blues elétrico, folk saturado, rock de penhasco e explotation experimental tornam no mínimo psicodélico seu Power Pop de Porão. 
Formado por Cristiano nos vocais, fritando órgãos e cordas, Fábio esfarelando as guitarras, Marcos esmerilhando nos baixos e Coiote rufando os tambores. Som pra jogar os vampiros no sol e alvejar alma.

Re-produzindo músicas que insistem 
em aparecer na minha cabeça. 
Since 1986.

Comecei a tocar violão com 12 anos, em 1993, por causa de um disco dos Beatles. Passei a adolescência em bandas de rock e blues. No início do século eu estava envolvido com a cena hard-core paulistana e me interessei por culinária - meu hobby. Larguei a faculdade de jornalismo em Santos e fui estudar no IAV, em Sampa. Meus primeiros contatos na cidade, fora do hard-core, foram Pete Hassle e Jorge Moreira. Com o Something Blue fomos à Inglaterra em 2007 mostrar nosso disco, feito no ano anterior. Ao voltar, tivemos a chance (Jorge e eu) de produzir os primeiros fonogramas de Mallu Magalhães. Segui na banda da cantora até o fim da campanha de seu segundo disco, no final de 2010 (incluindo duas excursões a portugal). Passei o início de 2011 entre Santos e Sampa, até me mudar para Brasília em maio e rapidamente me estabelecer na cena local. Contatos por kaduabecassis@gmail.com
É isso aí!
I began playing guitar aged 12, in 1993 influenced by the Beatles. After spending teenagehood in blues and rock bands, in 2000 I've got involved with the hard-core scene. At that time, I discovered I just love cooking. After moving to the big city for studying audio, I met Pete Hassle and Jorge Moreira. With our band, Something Blue, we went to England in 2007. As we got back to Brazil, we started producing the first records to the female singer Mallu Magalhães. I kept in her band 'till the end of her second album's tour (including 2 tours to Portugal), in december 2010. I spent the first months of 2011 between Santos (my birth town) and São Paulo 'till may, when I finally moved to Brasília and quickly found my place in the local scene.
