Hailing from Sao Paulo, Drumagick are brothers Jr. Deep and Guilherme Lopes production team. Drumagick re-invented the samba, inspired by the healthy diet of heavy bass, dancefloor funk and energetic melody making serious waves on this side of the Atlantic. The end product culminated in their debut "Ai Maluco" - an L.P for the SambaLoco / Trama Records imprint that had been the brains and engine fuelling this revolution. This included collaborations with Max De Castro and Xerxes de Oliveira (XRS) and helped establish Drumagick as force to reckoned with.

Then came Easyboom...An instant classic from first hearing and was rinsed by all and sundry before it was even given its official release (it was included on Gilles Peterson Worldwide compilation and reached No. 3 in the BBC Radio 1 All Winners chart in 2002) and it still sounds as fresh today as its first outing. Remixes for two City of God soundtrack songs and a current rework of Mitchell & Dewbury's "Beyond the Rains" have been just a few of the highlights post - Easyboom. The track "Malangdrem" taken from their “Checkmate” debut album , is currently being used for the new FIFA street tv advert.
The nu samba show is here to stay and long may it continue to rock dance floors from Brixton to Brooklyn. Do not miss !!
