About Dr. Speaker Blower
Dr. Speaker Blower is Miguel Santos. He started 3 Rock/Hardcore/Punk bands when was a teenager. In 1998, he started Sonic Tribe Indians - with Jota Mudo they were the first drum´n´bass band in Portugal (1998-2002). Playing always in Live Act and in many different venues in Oporto (including a Live Act on a boat in the Douro river in Oporto in July 2001), they released several singles and one album.

After Jota Mudo left the band, Dr. Speaker Blower kept going alone, experimenting with new sounds, beats and atmospheres creating his own style. He has also created several VST instruments and effects - among other free software available in the Ourafilmes website, a video company he started in 1997. He works as a sound teacher (currently working on a PhD on sound for film) and also recording on location, sound design and post production for film and tv.

The advanced d´n´b label Speaker Blower Records is his last project and, so far, is the biggest. This label is a new state of mind and an artistic expression. It is a new tendencies, forward-thinking drum´n´bass label from Portugal (and also the first dnb label in this country).

In 2012, he produced the complete soundtrack for the 50 minute youth tv series pilot episode "Geração à rasca". This project includes ambient tracks, trance, rock and drum´n´bass. You can listen to these tracks here or in youtube.
