艺术家简介 The alias ‘Faro’ is derived from my third name ‘Rufaro’ and reflects my
African descend. It also is a tribute to the beautiful shores of Faro,
Portugal. A place, like many other beautiful shores in the world, that
inspires me while making Ambient/Lounge and Downtempo music. At age 17, I
started experimenting with music on my computer, using nothing but VST
plug-ins and some old samples. Discovering different genres, from
R&B to Rock, I soon embarked the fascinating soundscapes of the
Lounge world. Influenced by great artists/producers like Rue de Soleil,
Patrick O’hearn, Afterlife and Pat Metheny I have reached a very
personal style with roots in both Lounge and R&B. Genre, however, is
a boundless conception and expands beyond that what is familiar. Every
soundscape is different, with different images and emotions coloring its
realm. What I try to produce is a fine, soothing setting to ease the
restless spirit.
Living in the Netherlands, I find that Lounge music lingers humbly at
the background, touching lives and daily habits in many different ways.
It isn’t obviously present, nor is it completely absent. It provides
space to meditate and to dwell on different cloudy shades, without any
disturbance or inconvenience. For me, Lounge music offers the melody
that has been lost during the effort of containing it. Music should have
an image contained or even a story to tell. It should carry an emotion
or provoke an irrational thought. Either abstract, conceptional or
blunt.
I hope that the music I carry is elegant in such a way that it drives
restless emotions to produce a calm and tender atmosphere. One that can
either stir up some profound, inner clarity or that can let you breath
in the serenity your peace-hunger soul craves for. I also hope to bring
Lounge and R&B closer, for I believe both genres share many relaxing
elements.
Studying economics and finance, music is not the only priority in my
life. It is not really my endeavor to become widely successful as an
artist. I will, however, try to continue spreading my sound and thoughts
and exploring different styles provided by other artists. Music is a
wonderful way to express one self, yet it should, just like Lounge,
linger humbly at the background.
The Lemongrassmusic label is the first label where I have signed. I
would like to thank Roland and Daniel for this opportunity and of course
for their wonderful music.
