Henrique Albino e Surama Ramos

 More than a performance for two interpreters who sing, play several instruments (including unconventional instruments and live electronic remixes) and that dialogue with interactions with the audience, SH is a portrait of the feelings that end up being repressed within each one; the onomatopoeia (“shush”) that makes us shut up as a title. Based on the lives of the interpreters / authors, the generating particles of the compositions are autobiographical. Surama and Henrique have versatility as their main characteristics, and they start from this to make the sound as faithful as possible to the ideas that pass through their minds. Most of the instruments are played by them on the recorded bases, in addition to using clippings from old recordings deconstructed from electronic processing. The live performance uses overlaps of loops, samples and interactions with the audience to expand the duo’s sound. The SH project is in the process of recording its first album.
