Kvav are a five piece from the surroundings of Gothenburg, Sweden, who produce atmospheric melancholic beauty in their music. Formed two years ago they released their debut single in the winter of 2014 and are due to release their debut EP ‘Bodies Wandering’ in April 2016.


Brutus Begins is a project by Ricardo Temporao, a Portuguese-Canadian musician writer, and director currently based in Hamilton. The band includes Geoff Burns on bass and Nick Burson on drums. Elements of indie-folk, dance and psych rock are resampled and synthesized, creating a sonic landscape that blurs the lines between the real and the reconstructed.   The songwriting and storytelling remain the heart of a world that mirrors our own - commenting on our vices, ambitions and ultimately our evolution. 

Brutus Begins released "Uncanny Valley" to critical praise. It's been described as 

"as addicting and inviting as a soma hit" and "...one of the most compelling and high quality debuts we've heard in a decade".  No More Division

"phenomenal" Canadian Beats Mag 

"Indie Folk-Rock joins electronic new wave in a modern version of Steve Miller" ... "a juggernaut of a debut".  Canadian Music Blog

Currently Ricardo and his team are in production - creating videos in support of new singles.

Producer and songwriter based in Stockholm, Sweden.

Olika sidor av staden (2011)
Have you ever wondered what all the people are listening to when they travel on public transport?
That thought has crossed my mind many times.
Det mekaniska undret is a music and art project that was created to make a soundtrack for a tram line in Gothenburg.
Line 11 from Bergsjön to Saltholmen. The idea is that you play the album throughout the journey, from the start in Bergsjön to the end of the line in Saltholmen. An album to listen to when you travel.
The trip was filmed and the music synced for the trip. The outcome was ten songs that represent the different sections of the trip. Each song also got an unique art work that breathes the part of town that you pass through.
The project ended with an video installation and exhibition in the district of Majorna in Gothenburg.
