Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

Hi, guys, this is Ars Pro Vita, from Brazil.Our composition involves the use of complex chord progressions mixing common and odd rhythmic patterns and unusual harmonies, with special attention in building concept albums and usually long tracks, using guitars, keyboards, drums, orchestral instruments, a bunch of effects, and musical instruments from various countries, which are incorporated to contextualize the song to the concept of the work, when it's needed. Influences: Genesis, Yes, Pink Floyd, Gentle Giant, King Crimson, ELP, Focus, PFM, Triumvirat, Renaissance, U.K., Procol Harum.

BIOGRAPHY
In early 2016, LF began to write poems on various subjects of humanitary themes, which quickly grew and turn to lyrics. At this time one day PJ, his brother, who had already composed many musical works with extensive experience in composition, proposed that they try to compose together. From there, LF began composing themes and fragments of melodic lines on the guitar. PJ in turn, for more than twenty years had been composing many instrumental themes on the computer. The union around the idea of composing albums together quickly happened with base on the subjects that LF was writing. By December the composition of the album ' Minor ' was initiated, when the lyrics were finalized. In September, 2017 the album was released, to an audience on a movie theater, in Porto Alegre, Brazil.
