Born in Azores, Mario Raposo is an eclectic and a self-taught musician. His taste and influences encompass Electronic, New age, Jazz, Classic music and film score composers. Since the early nineties, Mario has been creating music for film scores, commercial documentaries, advertisements, TV generics and CDs for local artists. A true product of his times, Mario does not hesitate in injecting into traditional 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 and sample libraries.
Mario Raposo was also highly influenced by the early electronic musicians worldwide such as Vangelis, J.M.Jarre or Tangerine Dream which is notable in some of the albums presented here at cdbaby.
