Get ready for Brazil's techno hero, GUI BORATTO (Kompakt) who returns to SF for another live performance guaranteed to lock your body into the groove. Now fresh on the heals of his latest release, Renaissance: The Mix Collection, Boratto returns with a fresh bag of hot new tricks.
Boratto shot to prominence with his Kompakt debut 'Chromophobia'. A much needed spot of colour amidst the minimal milieu, Gui's mixture of fierce production skills and a blissful pop sensibility have characterized his trajectory to the techno heavyweight before us today.Amidst a rigorous touring schedule and busy family life, 'Take My Breath Away', Gui's eagerlyanticipated sophomore album was just released last year. Laced with subtlecritique and double-entendre, Gui's philosophical approach is adept atpackaging the rough, smooth, bitter and sweet into a number of emotive andultimately optimistic productions. Boratto's tracks have techno's repetitivestructure and an airiness common to Brazilian music, electronic or otherwise,offering crescendos and catharsis like the best pop anthems of the '80s did.His heady approach to minimal techno yanks your head in first, whereuponyour ass just may follow.
