Vitor started his career in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil playing electric guitar before he fell in love with the Brazilian musical tradition. He begun to play choro and classical music at the Villa-Lobos Music School and the Escola Portátil de choro (Choro School) before he started at the Music School of the Federal University in Rio de Janeiro where he took classes with Daniel Marques and Paulo Pedrassoli, among others. To start playing the 7 strings guitar became a natural move in this context and he started to make arrangements in different kinds of music to be able to use the whole range of the instrument. To play classical music is specially challenging. Right now he is based in Stockholm, Sweden where he studies classical guitar at The Royal College of Music with Peter Berlind and takes the 7 strings guitar to Europe's concert halls!

OFFICIAL BIO
Regarded upon his 2006 arrival as a promising beatmaker looming in the shadows of J Dilla, Madlib, waterfalls and Dabrye, Steven Ellison -- known as Flying Lotus -- nullified all comparisons only two years later with Los Angeles. On that album, his first of five for the Warp label, Ellison distilled a uniquely crisp, spasmodic, and heady sound with elements of hip-hop, avant-garde jazz, IDM, and dubstep. While the abovementioned producers fueled Ellison, he had also been excited as a youngster by the '90s West Coast rap classics that combined programming and live instrumentation. His sound continued to develop as he put his own twist on the approach, recording with a crop of jazz musicians including the indispensable likes of bassist Thundercat and strings master Miguel Atwood-Ferguson. This process began with the turbulent 2010 set Cosmogramma and peaked in terms of acclaim in 2014 with You're Dead!, which crashed the Top 20 of the Billboard 200 and spawned the Kendrick Lamar collaboration "Never Catch Me," a Grammy nominee for Best Dance Recording. Ellison devoted a few years to various forms of film work and the operation of his revered Brainfeeder label, and returned in 2019 with Flamagra, his second consecutive album to top Billboard's Dance/Electronic chart.
