Gimo Mendes: General Info

Member Since	5/1/2007
Band Website	http://www.gimomendes.com
Influences	I grew up on Ilha de Mozambique in a mixed context of several cultures and histories, with a rich beautiful nature as a background. I was influenced by the music of many diverse rhythms resulting from the cultures of different peoples who, through centuries, came to this island. Ilha de Mozambique ('Mozambique Island') is a tiny island, just off the coast of Natala province, which, because of its location, was for centuries, a strategical gate to the backcountry and a way to the Indian Ocean. The island used to be the capital of the country and the most important point of transit and commerce for the Arabs, Persians, Indians, Chinese and Portuguese who, years later, colonized the territory. The country was called Mozambique after the name of a sultan.
Sounds Like	Melancolic as the Portugese fado, yet distinguished African
Record Label	Gateway Music
Type of Label	Indie

About Gimo Mendes

Born in 1955 in Mossuril in the Mozambican province of Nampula. Based in Denmark. Recorded an album with Eyphuro on Real World Records. Teach music at World Music Center in Aarhus, where I live with my family.

'A LUZ' is my first album as a soloist. It is the result of many years of training and experience in Denmark as well as in Mozambique - a journey into my career as a musician and composer.

Within Denmark:
• Buy CD tracks from 'A Luz'
• Buy 'A Luz' (the physical CD)

Harmony DSPR	Jun 2 2009 11:21 PM Hello friend Its a pleasure to Said HI in your space. Joh 3:5 Jesús respondió: En verdad, en verdad te digo que el que no nace de agua y del Espíritu no puede entrar en el reino de Dios. Lo que es nacido de la carne, carne es, y lo que es nacido del Espíritu, espíritu es. No te asombres de que te haya dicho: "Os es necesario nacer de nuevo." El viento sopla donde quiere, y oyes su sonido, pero no sabes de dónde viene ni adónde va; así es todo aquel que es nacido del Espíritu. Joh 3:5 Jesus answered,Verily, verily, I sayG unto thee,Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh;and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth every one that is born of the Spirit.
