Name?

Yandrel: Andrey Freitas.

Location?

São Paulo, Brazil.

Can you tell us about this track? 

I made my album inspired by hyperpop, dubstep, trance and more EDM styles—I wanted to mix them with a touch of funk. I think this combination of sounds gave the album that special touch, you know?

What's your process? 

It was supposed to be an album with a totally different vibe from what was released, more melancholic, but I decided to make it more energetic and cool, so I got some friends of mine to participate in the album and we made history!

Can you tell us about your scene? 

It all started with me messing around on SoundCloud, and now I'm part of the Brazilian music community on SoundCloud! Several artists with insane creativity mixing Brazilian rhythms with EDM!

Who are your biggest influences?

JLZ, Mu540, kLap, hirihiri, umru, SOPHIE, DJ RUGAL ORIGINAL.

Who's your favorite artist on Nina? 

ICQ BABY :D
