Fogo Lento [implosive trio - fr/pt]
Kino Sousa (suit, Lisbon) Benoît Crauste  (sax, Paris) and Mário Rua (drums, Lisbon) form an intense and explosive trio in life. Their sound offers a spectral jazz and melodic experiences, ecological drone upon rich field recording interacts with exploratory guitar and oceanic drums, the Fogo Lento trio delivers a unique improvised concert each time they perform. The chemistry between the 3 is obvious. Emotional music on the edge and psychedelic vibrations.
Benoît is active in the international Afrobeat scene and frequents musicians from the Hermetic sphere in Brazil; Mário is well known for his sound in the Portuguese Free jazz scene. With their friend Kino*** on electric guitar, they will never let the flame of a slow fire go out.

Musician for contemporary dance and theater, journalist and translator for Pan African Music magazine, and frenetic selector-DJ, I need to experiment in all directions, as long as there are other people and their energies involved.
As a music lover, I spend my time building a temple dedicated to the groove and sonic experiments: voodoo, candomblé, cosmic jazz, trance salsa, voices and percussions from another world... celebration of the vibrations.

Músico para dança e teatro contemporâneo, jornalista e tradutor na revista Pan African Music, e selector-DJ frenético, preciso experimentar em todas as direções, desde que seja ao contacto de mais pessoas e energias.
Enquanto amanta das músicas, tenho criado o meu templo do groove: voodoo, candomblé, cosmic jazz, transe salsa, vozes e percussões do outro mundo... uma celebração das vibrações!
