Rico Loop: The magic of the moment

Rico Loop. The magic of the moment
Rico Loop is a Berlin-based multi-instrumentalist, beatboxer and musician, a one-man show and orchestra. His approach to creating music is a new technique of live-producing, that is, teaching the audience how music is compiled and arranged, and exploring how rhythms and melodies interact. Rico creates musical compositions using many different instruments and objects, including guitar, bass, keyboard, harmonica, and glass bottles, along with his amazing skills in beat-boxing and singing. He plays and records with the help of a loop station, which is the backbone of his musical production, creating his unique sound. His live shows are a kind of must-see for those who are looking for new forms of musical expression.
This lovely person performs in varying types of places all over the globe. He can be easily noticed in Berlins techno-mecca ‘Berghain’, theatrical and outstanding ‘WooMooN’ parties that happen in Ibiza, Barcelona and Mexico, ‘Tulum’. He can also be found in of the best summer clubs in Europe ‘Scorpio’ on Mykonos, and famous musical festivals like Fusion, Garbage, Kongsburg Jazz Festival and Riskilde. Rico finds the right connection with these different audiences, charms them and brings a party vibe while creating each time a different live show full of unique, experimental sounds.  These abilities are based on his passion to convey music and emotions in music in his own unique way that puts a receptive listener into a deep musical trip.
After a smashing summer full of colorful gigs we found Rico in Berlins studio. He was kind enough to talk to all-andorra.com about what he did over the summer, his artistical background and roots, views on modern music, his favorite places, festivals and party’s and about the possibility of bringing his outstanding live experience to Andorra.

Hi Rico! How was your summer? It looks like you had many gigs – was there a particularly memorable one during the season?
I had a weekly slot in the club ‘Scorpios’ on Mykonos, which is really one of the best and most successful clubs in Europe now. It is a summery, open-air club on the beach that is combined with a great restaurant. Everything about it was amazing; it was professionally organized, the vibe was great there, and the owners of the venue were really nice and friendly. I’m really happy that Scorpios gave me a great platform to express my music.
