Tom Herian alias Drama Jacqua comes from a family of musicians. He was born on August 7, 1980 in Teplice, Czech Republic, where he also graduated from musical conservatory, specializing in drums and percussion. He has been beating the drum set since early childhood and is currently involved in several musical projects (Segundo, Feng Jung Song & Trio PUO, Montage, S.O.I.L., Sato-San To and Rimbambo). He currently lives and makes music in Prague. It may be said that Jacqua's drumming specialty are grooves of broken fast-paced beats, often described as Jungle or D..n..B. He is inspired by players deeply rooted in today's rather broad and undefined style of jazz music. He..s deeply plunged into studies of Jungle/D..n..B school of Johnny Rabb. Jacqua works as teacher in Jam Music Istitution of Prague. Furthermore, Tom Herian is extensively engaged in composition of electronic music and working with sound. He has experimented in this field since the end of the 90's. Herian's solo project in experimental electronic music, Drama Jacqua, is a combination of playing accustic drum set and Ableton Live in real time. Yet another range of electronic experiment possibilities opens with the up and coming formation Montage, a balanced duet of samples and the voice of a young and promising singer, Klara Vytiskova(Toxique). It would be most unfair not to mention the Segundo band, Drama being one of its founding members, employing the skills of an electronic magician here as well. The band is built on live performance (sax, bass, drums) and computer. Nowadays, Jacqua focuses on an electro-jazz-pop band called Soil. Soil is nothing new on Prague..s pop-jazz scene. Jacqua cooperates with Oskar Torok (trumpete), Petr Zelenka (guitar) and Jaromir Honzak (double bass) as SATO-SAN TO. By the beginning of the new year 2009 Jacqua started to creat DnB Live set together with excelent heavy duty drummer BJ TZARR, featuring two accustic drum sets, electronic trigger pads, and Ableton Live. Jacqua also cooperates with DJ..s STANZIM and BABE LN as a member of live acts (drum-set and turntables). At last, but not least Drama Jacqua works with such an artists as Stephunk T (Uk), Petr Alexa, Flautistar, Mc Jacob, Mc Vaant, Mc Funes and Dj Bica.
Portugal is geographically a small country but that does not mean that the musical talent that inhabits it sometimes overflow and pollute neighboring areas and the cyberspace … the objective of this compilation is to give a glimpse of what is currently happening in Portuguese electronic music scene … I say small because outside this playlist remains a lot of talented artists who will continue bending your cerebral circuits in a second volume of this compilation … but not trying to evade that we present in this first volume of portuguese pitch benders, in this one you will find a crop full of beats contrasted with time lapses and some artificial environments … all adulterated in a good Portuguese FRESHION style..
