Born in S.Miguel, Azores, Mario is an eclectic and a self-taught musician. His taste and influences encompass Jazz, Classic music, New Age, Electronic and film score composers. For the past fifteen years, Mario has been creating music on his keyboards for film scores, commercial documentaries, advertisements, TV generics and CDs.
A true product of his times, Mario does not hesitate in injecting into tradicional forms a more modern language. He has experimented mostly with fusion, i.e.: jazz; traditional Portuguese and new age (especially on documentaries); electronic pop, dance; and orchestrations through the use of synthesisers.
Mário Jorge Raposo é um músico autodidata nascido em S.Miguel, Açores.
O seu gosto e influências musicais abrangem o jazz, música clássica, New Age, electrónica e alguns compositores de bandas sonoras. Nos últimos anos, Mário Jorge tem vindo a criar música para documentários, anúncios publicitários para TV e rádio, CDs e a banda sonora do tele-filme intitulado "Um Natal distante" produzido pela IRIS - Audio Visuais, co-produzido pela RTP-Açores. Sendo um produto da sua geração, Mário Jorge não hesita em introduzir uma linguagem mais contemporânea na música de influências tradicionais, especialmente aplicada nos documentários sobre os Açores.
No jazz, a fusão é a sua principal vertente. De salientar a participação nos trabalhos discográficos dos músicos açoreanos Luis Bettencourt e Aníbal Raposo.
