The nickname may suggest something aggressive, but it only points to the violence that is an inherent part of the creative act, while also referencing the most elemental and omnipresent component of our lives today. Here a data attack is nothing more than the relationship between art and our senses in its purest state, regardless of the form it takes. And whether in his poignant visual work or in his powerful musical work, it is this primal impulse that fuels the imagination of Brasilia native Stenio Freitas.

After all, he expresses himself in an already long-lasting career as an audiovisual chronicler of the human and inhuman aspects of their hometown, as an architect of the recovery of public spaces through mural interventions and as a director of events that were part of a movement that injected energy into nightlife of the capital during the last decade. It was within the IMÃ collective and its Grau parties that he materialized his initial impetus in this field, in an impulse that was followed by many other initiatives and extended to the present day, including transformative projects such as SUB IN MUNDO as part of the collective SUJO or the SNM Sessions and Electro Resistência with the SNM core to its own legendary Crying Club parties.

Thus, the rediscovery of urban, dreamlike, aesthetic and community dimensions relegated to abandonment or oblivion is the main theme of his work as a music selector and cultural producer. Something that manifests itself even more clearly in its presence on the Nice & Deadly label, an endeavor in which it not only plays a curatorial role, but mainly transposes the ethics and aesthetics it applies to its other activities in putting together an impeccable catalogue. One that is based not only on revisiting genres and reevaluating styles in an uncritical or anachronistic way, but reinventing them for our times.
