Alexis Cabrera

As a self taught musician, Cabrera started to experiment with music at a very young age. After having spent six years of conservatory studies, his music flourished. Cabrera’s style can best be defined as a tech house sound with groovy bases. He performs exclusively live, singing his own songs on the fly. His songs was released on labels like Mindshake Records, Kumquat Records, Time has changed, Great Stuffs and many many more.

 

Nowadays Alexis performs at most hype clubs in Buenos Aires such as Mandarine, Bahrein, Pacha, Cocoliche, just to name a few. He was also an important act at the 2009 Festival South American Music Conference (SAMC). And his last european tour was such a success, performing in Berlin, at clubs like Watergate and Club der Visionaere, and also at Split (Croatia), Zurich, Rome, and Venice.

 

2011 has kept Alexis busy. After his European tour (playing in clubs like Watergate and Club der visionaere on Berlin, Croatia, Zurich) he’s recently co-produced Barem’sAfter the Storm„, along with Barem himself, released on Minus in the middle of 2011 [Minus 110]. He also worked with Jorge Savoretti and Matteo Spedicati for AMAM. And now is still hot his release „Whatever ep“ on Paco Osuna’s Label „Mindshake Records“

 

Cabrera’s eager talent is not limited to dance floor-oriented tracks, and this can be seen in his work under the a.k.a. CABRI, most suited for relaxing times.

Alexis Cabrera without any doubt evolves in the most renowned league of new producers of Argentina and his discography shows collaborations with credible top artists of the world such as Barem, Someone Else, Kate Simko, Franco Cinelli, Jorge Savoretti, Matteo Spedicati, Violett, Ariel Rodz, Juan Zolbaran and Ronan Portela, among others.

TAKE-AWAY is artack’s mobile flagship project. Set up as an briskly live-painting-session it allows for exciting interaction between the artists involved and the public. Our collective sessions and artistic get togethers act as a statement against all the «battles», which characterized other live-painting sessions for too long time. What we present can be seen as laid back stage for the boldest artists to crow with unrivalled artistic skills.
The backbone of each TAKE AWAY session is an adjustable wall consisting of a number of loose square plates. Put together the plates form a smooth surface to receive artistic emissions of all sorts – but each and every plate is extractable and thus also replaceable.

For every TAKE-AWAY session a certain number of artists are invited to turn this wall individually or as a team into a work-in-progress limited only by the duration of the session. This work-in-progress takes place right in front of crowd that is eager to acquire original art works as a snip. By pushing the buzzer the audience can actively interfere into the artistic processes and purchasing anything they see on the wall at any time. The plate carrying the theme of their heart will be extracted, signed, sealed and sold for take away. The gaping whole in the wall will be immediately replaced by an untouched new plate – and on and on the story goes! read more about Artacks
