O peso não é uma ilusão!

O Brazillusion é um coletivo de composição que traz consigo uma caraterística peculiar, marcante e inovadora – a mistura fina entre o reggae cantado em português e o rap conduzido em espanhol. O reggae é explorado em suas vertentes mais pesadas como o Dub, Dancehall e o Ragga, priorizando o groove de baixo e bateria, e o rap segue o mais forte estilo do Hip Hop latino. As letras são originais e bem elaboradas fazendo jus à responsabilidade de seguir vertentes tão nobres de ambos os ritmos. 

Criado em 2015 no ABC paulista, o grupo é formado por músicos versáteis com vasta bagagem no cenário reggae brasileiro, que encontraram no suingue do rap latino-americano a receita para atingir uma produção nova, inusitada e original.

Brazillusion é:

Ricardo Lima – Vocal
Kabronn Murier – Rapper
André “Pipoca” Marques – Baixo
China – Guitarra
Eramir Neto – Sampler e Efeitos
Marcelo “Ozi” Alonso – Bateria
