Mariano Melo, aka Marian Sarine, is a Brazilian multi-instrumentalist based in São Paulo, specialising in percussion and drums. Known for his drumming with the band DEAFKIDS and his solo work as Sarine, Mariano’s latest album, “Asas Terenas,” features his first recordings under this name. The album began with organ themes recorded with Felipe Pato at the end of 2019, with additional instruments added throughout 2020 and 2021. A sonic mixture that moves the feet and lifts the soul—creating an experience that is both pristine in sound and transcendental on the dancefloor.

In addition to his solo work, Mariano plays percussion and synths with Felinto, tours with Test, and performs with Teto Preto. He has also collaborated with Rakta, Hierofante, and Cavalo Serpente.
