Music

As a musician, the multi-instrumentist is part of several music acts such as Ghost Orchid and (aura). While Ghost Orchid is a more song-oriented atmospheric post rock project, (aura) is a more experimental project going through antagonistic and diversified musical styles and fusing the music itself with lots of sound design and cinematic elements. (aura)'s debut album invisible landscape is an imaginary soundtrack inspired on the photographic work of José Ramos.

His previous bands and projects include Universe Denied and Vanguarda (as drummer), among others. He also has a live jam duo with his brother Marcelo Fernandes known as Irmãos Brothers, known for their intense and psychedelic live performances, on underground clubs.

Abutre Netlabel

Fernandes is also the director of the independent netlabel Abutre Netlabel, which releases and promotes freely - in a digital format - works from experimental artists like 1 is the Lonely Number, Ghost Orchid, Universe Denied, Akasha, Mindshelter, among others. In Abutre, he also assumes the tasks of web and graphic designer.
