About me

Musician, producer, photographer and activist define Ricardo Imperatore, who plays with mosaics created from his multidisciplinary facet, where each of his artistic practices influences and harmonizes with the others.

I have been a music producer for soundtracks and sound design for audiovisual projects since 2004.
My portfolio, [available at the link], is a brief history of the work I have participated in.
I am known for my collaborative approach and my modus operandi of exploring new sounds, always seeking to deliver results above expectations.

In 2004, the artist starts composing music and sound design for soundtracks for audiovisual media, films, series, fashion shows, exhibitions, theater, dance performances, among others.
Amazon Prime, Globoplay, Netflix, Canal Curta, Canal Brasil, GNT, SportTv, Canal Futura are channels that broadcast or have broadcast audiovisual works with music composed by Imperatore.

"Imperatore combines versatility, modern sound and the sensitivity necessary for understanding dramaturgy."
- Clélia Bessa, Raccord Produções

"I had a very positive experience working with Ricardo Imperatore, music director and soundtrack composer. Our film had its world premiere at the Gramado Festival. I think one of the highlights of the film is the music. Imperatore composed, recorded and produced it.
He knows how to create the atmosphere of a story through the compositions he makes."
- Daniel Belmonte, director and screenwriter

"The good thing about working with Ricardo is that he delivers on time, is helpful, and creative and... makes changes whenever necessary, without complaining! Very collaborative; I recommend him." - Paola Vieira, audiovisual director, Divers~ao e Arte
"Impeccable and avant-garde soundtrack for a collection like that ;)"
- Oskar Metsavaht - OSKLEN

From 1995 to 2000 Imperatore collaborated with artists such as Titãs, Man At Work, Marisa Monte, Midnight Oil, Monobloco, Mario Caldato, Natalie Cole, Susanne Vega, Tom Capone, among others.
Since 2000, Imperatore has been developing the Botecoeletro project. Influenced by the various styles of Brazilian music, from pop to traditional folk, and even classical, Botecoeletro has released two albums.
"Botecoeletro impressed me from the first time I heard it. It's great that everyone will be able to get to know the work." - Marisa Monte (2005)
In 2005, the first album Botecoeletro was elected Best Album in the Electronic Album category at the Brazilian Music Awards.
2006 Imperatore/Botecoeletro was selected as one of the artists to be part of 2006 FIFA World Cup Game.
In 2012, Botecoeletro Vol. 2 was released, nominated for the same Brazilian Music Awards in 2013.
2024 work in progress, two new projects, "Petiscos Variados" & "Impera I - Umbandas"
Since 2005, Imperatore has presented the Botecoeletro project worldwide, having toured Europe, the United States, Latin America and Asia.
