Who is Taremuru?

Taremuru is a band created by Elias Castro in which he artistically manifests all his scientific findings.

His investigations include a recompilation of the aborigines and afrovenezuelan musical manifestations.

He travels to remote locations and lives with indigenous tribes for extended periods of time. As he is accepted by the communes he records their day to day chants. The recordings have sequences which tell a story, from the moment of birth till death. The Taremuru album includes chants from the moment that a baby is born and it is sang a lullaby, passing by playing children’s songs, chants as they work in the fields, harvest crops, until death.

Elias Castro then composes music following the chants melodies and ads the original voices of the indigenous people, creating one of the most extraordinary combinations between nature, the digital world, and music.
