In more or less recent times, few musicians operating in Portugal have the same proficiency and sense of urgency as André Neves. A native of Barreirinha, better known as George Silver, he has been an indifferent figure between solo performances, DJ sets, as a radio host with his Sincopado on Rádio Quântica or as drummer in DEBUT! and machine operator in AFF. A kaleidoscopic and voracious vision that gets stuck in the most diverse songs – African polyrhythms, tropicalist swing, acid house and the chillest derivation of the 90’s or the contemplation of Southwest Asia – and shuffles them with a contagious happiness and amazement. Innocent Indecent, released last year under an OUT.RA creative grant, denounced this thirst for discovery of a hidden pan-culturalism. Accompanied now by a golden band made up of David Caiado, Duarte Reis and Ernesto Vitali, it welcomes these and other worlds into any habitat where its frequencies propagate.
