pexbaA Interested in improvisation, experimentalism, random combination of senses,
and expansion of possibilities of musical creation through the use of new technologies,
grounds and languages, pexbaA, born in 1998, is the result of former projects,
such as Escola Mineira de Disfunção, which were part of the musical scene of
Belo Horizonte (Brazil) in the 90s. As for the band’s composition process, we
start with the principle that any sound can be a source for making music. Therefore,
our songs can’t be classified as being representative of a certain country, region,
culture or a specific artistic movement. It’s a free subject, once the words
have no meaning at all. So, besides the personal interpretation of each single
listener, in these words there are no expression vices or literary clichés, easily
found in any language. Regarding the so-called influences, the map of what interests
the group consists of all types of sonorities used or invented by man, from around
the world and throughout time, or the sounds in which we are simply submerged.
That is, we can say that we are influenced by everything that we have managed
to capture between 20 hertz and 20 kilohertz. From this experience between listening
and composing, the result is: music. Almost always, music, without any adjectives,
would sound better, or perhaps in the atonal (de)combination of ex-signifiers,
in the structuring of improvisations, an “Omnivorous-Jazz-Dada Experiment”, as
someone defined it. Line up: João Marcelo – Bass Rodrigo Magalhães – Drums Rodrigo
