Micro Audio Waves

Micros Audio Waves are a Portuguese band consisting originally a duo formed by Flak (the guitar player from Rádio Macau) and C. Morgado (electronic instruments), they formed in 2000 in Lisbon, Portugal, and began by developing compositions with a minimal and experimental electronica style, the results of which can be heard in their first album Micro Audio Waves (2002). With the addition of Claudia Efe (vocals), the project took on a new direction towards electronic pop, without betraying the experimental elements. One of their best known singles so far has been the 2004 song Fully Connected, in which the assembling instructions from some electronic apparatus are sung in a contrasting sensuous human voice by Claudia Efe. In 2009 they teamed up with renowned choreographer and stage director Rui Horta to create Zoetrope, a concert / performance combining live songs with video and interactive imagery. A film of this show and its music was released on DVD and CD.
