Hey all!
Revista Pura is a Brazilian magazine about lifestyle, music,events and news of the e-world! Pura also try to discuss about another relevant points of our contemporary time such as fashion, art, history, recycling and nature. Its illustration shows some of our coming up photographs's talent a part of the brazilian graffiti and drawings. The press try to engage the young public to the news out there making not just a tuned, informed and trendy public but conscious of their environment too.
Pura intend to review all of the electronic events and its related topics not just in Brazil but around the world making a international connection trough the electronic scene. For that the press uses the credibility of some names around such as Daniel Sellos http://www.facebook.com/dsellos and his team of collaborators made by local photographs, web designers, journalists, graphics designers, illustrators, djs, promoters and producers known of the public. The magazine is growing together with the brazilian's electronic scene, with the local djs, and producers.
One high light is the deputamadre club in Belo Horizonte. http://www.deputamadreclub.com/
Lele Deputamadre runs the underground venue together with his girlfriend Fernanda Santiago.
Some of the international names which has been there already Booka Shade, Felix da House Cat, Trentmoller and others.

A part of that i want to show here some good things that is happening in the e-world in Brazil proving that we are not just about samba, football, Ronaldinho and naked girls.... i hate those cliches! Like very often when i meet people around here they say " oh you are from brazil so dance samba a little bit for us to see! hahahahha god!" First i am not the type of samba girl cause i think i am a way to dark for the style second we do have another kind of music too! We also know how to make electronic music and we do have great festivals too!!
