You can be a musician, composer, performer, producer, arranger, recording and mixing engineer, or take on other roles. However, there are very rare cases of artists who manage to encompass all these skills, as is the case with Erico Moreira, who assumed all these responsibilities in the release of his latest album, “Dentro da Matrix.” It’s no wonder that this album, produced entirely independently, was nominated for the 2022 Latin Grammy.
Produced, composed, and mixed by Erico, the album competed in the Best Recording Engineering Album category. In the same category were those responsible for the acclaimed releases of Liniker (Zé Nigro and Gustavo Ruiz) and Antonio Adolfo (Marcelo Saboia), as well as the influential pop star Rosalía (Manny Marroquin / Chris Gehringer).
After being nominated for the second consecutive time, Erico has just won a Latin Grammy in the Best Recording Engineering Album category. This time with the album “Canto a la Imaginación” by the Catalan singer Marina Tuset, for which he was responsible for production, recording, and mixing, while mastering was handled by engineer Felipe Tichauer. Currently, he is recording his third studio album “Divina Presença,” which is set to be released in May 2024. Latin Grammy 2022. Nominate “Best Engineered Album”, “Dentro da Matrix“ Album.
Érico Moreira presents his new album DENTRO DA MATRIX.

The Brazilian musician based in Spain brought together his songs, which mix romanticism and social criticism in an innovative, disruptive album with influences of music from different parts of the world.

“Dentro da Matrix” is the name of the second solo album by brazilian multi-instrumentalist and self-taught musician Érico Moreira in Spain. With love songs and themes that talk about the world and the universe, Èrico gains prominence by making a fine mixture of instruments, rhythms and inspirations.
Érico explains the title of his latest work: “the title of the album comes from one of the songs, released in early 2021 and that synthesizes much of the things I have been discovering about the nature of our reality during almost 10 years of studies and reflections”.
“The themes covered in the album go from spirituality and love to a theme that interests me a lot that is the presence of extraterrestrial life on earth for thousands of years,” he says.

The album has the feats of artists and musicians of different nationality and styles, such as the singer and composer of Guinea-Bissau, Mú M’bana; the Spanish trumpeter Milena Casado, the French trumpeter Raynald Colom, who has played with Mano Chao; the percussionist Zé Luis Nascimento (Brasil), who played with Chico César; and portuguese violinist João Silva.
“Dentro da Matrix”, released on May 27, also has the song “Sin Gravedad”, which Érico recorded with the participation of the Catalan singer Marina Tuset.
