Gezender’s fourth EP, presents 4 sound pieces: Starting with “Cuerpo”, a track without vocals focused on movement. Followed by “Corpo Fechado”, with the participation of Linn da Quebrada, is the densest of the work. The following tracks, "War" and "Ambient War", feature Bruno Mendonça and bring a more intimate and contemplative atmosphere. Corpo can be thought of as the first step to other actions and experiments.
The philosophical concept of Atopy is linked to the idea of absurdity. Later on, it gained new meanings as notions of “non-place”, “unclassifiable” or “unnameable”. The term points to a quality of experience that would be precisely in the difficulty of answers, on the problematic of mythological and romantic projections and also in the failure of objectification. And it is this universe that the artist and music producer Gezender presents in his new work, the Corpo EP, released on May 14 by MambaREC.

Featuring Linn da Quebrada and Bruno Mendonça, Gezender takes a chance of bringing together different artists who, each in their own way, have worked on the unraveling of language in their productions. In the musical field, Linn relates this to issues of race, gender, and class. Bruno Mendonça has been proposing this in the scope of contemporary literature and art, addressing themes such as pink money and viruses.

“Corpo is an EP that was born during this pandemic period, where I had the chance to look more at myself and understand the body as a whole, its own rhythm, needs, hormones, pleasures, and fragilities. There is a mixture of feelings very characteristic of the moment we are going through, sometimes contemplative, sometimes full of conflicts. I tried to extract the beauty of these antagonistic emotions, without forgetting the dystopian feeling that permeates the present, between peace and anguish, but with some breath that makes me someone on the path to healing and comprehension" explains Gezender.

Poisonous serpent with libidinous nocturnal habits. Fast and fatal pounce. Eletronic temple of experimentation.


audacious gang of performative snakes from são paulo's underground.

Active in São Paulo's underground scene since may 2013, was born offering a obscure and hard type of atmosphere, and by the confrontation between eletronic and acoustic, minimal  organic and percussive, techno with african and Brazilian rhythms. Consolidated as a live production space, with dj sets, live jams, psychedelia, maracatu and post-tropicalisms with eletronic beats. 

Mamba Negra is a deep aestethic experience surrounded by an multi-language enviroment, wrapped on a mesh of hand-made work, such as cenography elements, graphic material, live vjiyng, ready made serygraphic t-shirts, trash tattoo, performatic outfit  and urban intervention.
