KHANGORRAKARAN!

Name?

KARAN!: KARAN! (Sérgio).

Location?

Goiânia - GO.

Can you tell us about this track?  

This track is a song I’ve made for an upcoming EP in the works! Making the sounds of Brazilian Funk more aggressive, as I always do.

What's your process?

Usually I just mess with a bunch of sound design and drums stuff until I find a pattern that has a catchy flow and goes crazy! Pretty simple but it works, I've done this on this track specifically and all the other ones on my upcoming EP as well.

Can you tell us about your scene?

The type of music that I do is called Favela bass, a mix between the Brazilian music culture with the heavy bass side of electronic music. But I do also love the pure Brazilian funk, it’s just bangers on top of bangers! It is awesome to see how our music and scene has grown all over the world. :D

Who are your biggest influences? 

Always has been Skrillex and Tropkillaz, but my biggest influences recently have been my friends of course! Mu540, Adame, Yandrel and a bunch of other amazing artists.

Who's your favorite artist on Nina? 

I freaking love the releases barom has made so far, weird crazy bangers! Love that a LOT!

Any shoutouts?

A huge shoutout to agazer0 for the amazing opportunity and for the invite! Always been a big fan of his stuff, we met a couple days ago and it was awesome. And also a HUGE SHOUTOUT to all the Brazilian indie artists out there all over the country, our music is the future and I'm so glad to be part of all of that! :)
