brazilian musician, producer, composer & DJ
new album “Revoada” out now on Altercat Records
“If you’re a fan of recent Brazilian music then there’s no doubt that you’ve come across Mauricio Fleury.
A founding member of São Paulo’s afrobeat/disco orchestra Bixiga 70, he has collaborated with the likes of Gal Costa, Emicida, Lucas Santtana, João Donato, Liniker and many more; adding keyboard, guitar, production and arrangements to a veritable cross-section of contemporary Brazilian music (jazz, hip-hop, pop, you name it). If he was not so busy in Brazil you can be sure he’d also have further names to add to his list of international collaborators, but for now Quantic, Compass (Mexican Institute of Sound and Toy Selectah), Colombia’s Los Pirañas and Tony Allen will have to do.”

REVOADA - out now on Altercat Records
Delve into the quirky and psych-tinged world of Brazilian pianist, composer and multi-instrumentalist Mauricio Fleury.
With more than a hint to Brazilian jazz greats like Azymuth, Deodato and CTI Records in their prime, Revoada is a groove based jazz-framed record, primed with other transitory musical vignettes which touches on Turkish psych and soul-jazz born out of the 70’s film soundtrack genre.
Revoada is a 6 track album and storyboard of Mauricio’s migration and travels through Brazil’s geographical oddities , its rural and urban enclaves. Recorded in Brazil, it’s the result of numerous treks through funky flea markets, soaking up old vinyls and vintage cultural artefacts combined with a new life led in Berlin since 2022.
