Edition #11
Rio de Janeiro, 2008
“DKANDLE weaves swirling multi-colored vibrant unearthly soundscapes, blending fuzzy and reverberating Shoegaze textures, mesmerizing Dream Pop meditations, sludgy Grungey tones and moody Post-punk strains, heightened with soul-stirring lyricism and pensive emotive vocalizations”

WITH DJ RICARDO NS
- What's your nickname and why?
My name is Ricardo Nahmias Scheiner, and I shortened it to Ricardo NS.
- What do you do for a living?
I run an electronic music record label and I'm a DJ. I'm also studying architecture at university.
- Do you believe in extraterrestrial life?
Yes, I do. But I think very few people really know what's going on.
- What’s the best set you've ever played?
At the TRESOR club in Berlin, in 1999, where I played for 13 hours straight.
- Do you sing in the shower?
No. I usually think a lot about life.
- What’s the best place you’ve ever traveled to?
Japan, in 1998, where I played at a Brazilian music festival in an amusement park. I even got to be the master of ceremonies.
- What’s the most absurd thing you've ever read about yourself?
I find it really annoying when people talk about electronic music and don't mention my name... As if I were a nobody... I've been playing electronic music for 13 years and was one of the people responsible for its growth here in Rio.
- What’s the most strange musical request you've ever received during your set?
When I was playing at Terraço Rio Sul, during the TECHNO NO TERRAÇO night, someone asked me to play '70s music.
- Have you ever played the glass game (Ouija board)?
Yes, and I don't like it. I think people mess with things they shouldn't and don't understand.
- What's your favorite drug?
I don't take drugs, actually, I'm against them... I had my phase, and I came to the conclusion that you don't need drugs to have fun... The most important thing is to have fun sober!
- Which cities do you think have the most vibrant nightlife in Brazil?
I think the nightlife in Curitiba is very good, and the one in POA (Porto Alegre) is also growing a lot. Each city has its own characteristics.
- What's your dream purchase?
To start my own family, be happy, and work a lot with my record label.
Your opinion on:
Big Brother - I don't know... I think television will do anything for ratings.
Cloning - I find cloning interesting only for making limb prosthetics... beyond that, I think it's the height of absurdity.
Kellie Key - She should grow up a bit and stop being so superficial.
Fernanda Porto - She has a great career in electronic music!
- Did God create man or did man create God?
God created man.
