Solatino is my name, a French author, compositor and interpret, making music since 3 years and have experienced music groups before during 6 years.
I've made Jazz before all: singing improvisations, took place in a classical music choral during two years and gone though a rap music group during 4 years. I sang in a fusion group as a beat boxer and Spanish rapper in Mexico during one year and decided to do something alone with my own artistic direction.
Here are 4 of my 35 original songs, are all in French (excuse me, this is my natural language), but I swear, English songs will come around to be understood by everyone.
Peace...

Why this name?
Latino is a name I've simply found in Mexico and explains how living in the south of France makes me belong to a strong Latin culture, a very rich one. This is just here, around me and I just have to learn it, experience it or eat it... Such as Latin culture is inspired by everything abroad, overseas, I feel obliged to discover what happens outside. I feel solatino 'cause I feed my music by a worldwide culture. And It strengthens my own culture, my lyrics...
Do you play live?
I play regularly Live and the very best moment was my invitation by -M- in the Dome in Marseille, such as in Labo-M- in Paris; a lot of artists and a lot of music styles combined into one... It was cool. Before, I went in Dour Festival, invited by la FF and Afrika Bambaataa. I met a lot of artists that gave me their influence in some way. My next Live will be in Marseille and after a BeatBox Battle at the end of September.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It changes our way to discover musicians: here, near me, but hidden or a local one, at the other side of our little planet. Internet opens the mind and brakes business rules to enforce the weigh of art and I don't mind if it drives to many millions dollars losses for multimillionaire stars. No price for culture...
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Yes, this is important to know what is right or wrong in a system and evaluate what can be good to widespread your own work. Being paid for what you create is a privilege. The most important is to keep in you the values you enforce, even if money tells you with a big smile to pack it off.
Band History:

Your influences?
Jazz (Joshua Redman, James Crater, Diane Reeves, always Ella and Chet Becker), Rock (from Pink Floyd to Korn, passing through U2 and Red Hots) and Hip Hop (since 2 weeks, only Elocution from Killa Kela, the next album will be a worldwide revelation;; RoxorLoops from Beatoxic…amazing; the last Busta Rhymes, another bomb and waiting for the latest DJ Mehdi).
Equipment used:
A JTS NX 8, the microphone perfectly sized for my noises...
Anything else...?
Now, I have a group: drums, piano, guitar, bass and I, singin', beatboxin'. All the compositions available over there are re-structured by 5 artists to make live my music and give them a real soul and sense during the show.
See you soon in a Beatbox battle or in one of my Lives.
Peace.
