Colectivo Casa Amarela
JEJUM #18 – LVIS
Saturday •
Duration: 45min
Age-range: +6
Booking: 0€
The Casa Amarela (Yellow House) Collective (CCA) and Rua das Gaivotas 6 started a partnership in 2020 that proposed a curatorial occupation of music, whose periodicity would be monthly. The formula is simple: one Saturday a month, CCA will showcase a sound artist and their latest works.
The focus is to present the best of what is produced and what is heard in the electronic music and sound art panorama, opening space for the dissemination of the portuguese experimental music scene.
The JEJUM (Fasting) concerts have already promoted premieres, unusual collaborations, unexpected twists, and double performances.
The main stage at Rua das Gaivotas 6 whets the appetite and makes listeners hungry.
Always on Saturdays, at the end of the day. Around hunger time. Preferably fasting.

LVIS
Lvis, a Portuguese artist from Sintra, released “Sudário” in 2021 as his first work in the experimental music field. With influences from Portuguese tradition and culture, Lvis explores the resonance of the harmonium, the piano and the harpsichord in this neofolk journey with Iberian roots, crossing elements of dark ambient and chamber folk, under layers reminiscent of medieval melodies. Fundamentally, Lvis describes “Sudário” as “12 songs of confusion and pain, anguish and oblivion, melancholy and boredom,” which, like good old country folk tales, end up mirroring personal experiences and traumas.
He also released the double single “Allegory of Winter” – where he explores soft noise with field recordings, by means of sound collages – and, more recently, a fusion with the power noise of DEATH POSTURE, “How to Be Killed by an Archangel”, in which he returns to gothic orchestration.
Colectivo Casa Amarela (CCA) started in 2014 as a group of four – Bruno, Mafalda, Nelson and Rui. Only the first two remain. Mafalda Melim deals with all visual aspects, Bruno Pereira programs concerts and releases some albums – some of them his own, others are handpicked collaborations. Micro-label and promoter with a special focus on experimental electronic music.
