Introducing_Ricardo Gomes

Looking for treasures from Brazil in the UK we never expected to find such a complete and experience Brazilian as we did in Ricardo, who is now part of the family mainly coming on board to help us with the sync side of things but also someone that will be be dealing on the artists development side of things starting with Ophellia and The Tree. Keep Tune.

Ricardo is a Brazilian composer, guitarist and producer who recently graduated with a Masters in Audio Production from University of Westminster – London (2010).

Combining his Brazilian music background with the most modern production techniques, Ricardo developed a unique, sophisticated and fresh sound that fits different genres.

Based in London for the last 6 years, he started on the music scene as a session guitarist. After meeting the producer George De Angelis (Tina Turner/Rod Stewart/Seal), he collaborated in the recording of different mainstream artists around the globe such as the Russian multi-million selling artist Valeriya and the Lebanese singer Abeer Nehme.

Recently, Ricardo has been involved in some rather successful projects such as the short film Mosa, which he wrote original music for. The film received worldwide attention and won the Iris Prize as the best UK short film 2010. He also has been collaborating with several artists, as well as producing his own music.
