The origin of SCOLARI dates back to mid 2019, between invitations to improvised jams, beers in hand and a general enthusiasm to bring jazz, noise and drone together in the studio – with all the possibilities and technical-tactical freedoms that exist in between. SCOLARI are António M. Silva (Sal Grosso, Peak Bleak), Bruno Pereira (Aires, Shikabala, Peak Bleak) and Luís Vicente in a markedly exploratory dialogue based on ideas and concepts common to the trio – noise/silence, abstract/concrete, melodic/dissonant, bitter/sweet. They have recently released a split with Larmschütz on the Dutch label Faux Amis, and are preparing to release their debut album, Mata-Mata, on Favela Discos.
