The world discovered the Brazilian electronic scene during the nineties. The Brazilian label Cri Du Chat Disques and main bands like Simbolo and Aghast View soon became world-wide recognized projects from the EBM scene. Time went on and the Brazilian scene got back into silence. Deadjump was one of the bands active in the nineties. This solo-project set up by Alexandre Ramos was just one of the promising young bands, which unfortunately never got an international recognition. After a few years of commitment Deadjump stopped all activities, but came back to life by surprise. Several new releases saw the daylight and the band is maybe now busy to reach a higher recognition than 10 years ago now! (By Elise Din)

SL. I would dare to say that Deadjump is an older band, but can you briefly tell us the way you came into electronic music and who's hiding behind this band?

D. Well, Deadjump has been set up in 1996 just after I've stopped my previous project called Brutal Divergenz. So, I decided to set up a solo-project, starting to compose music under the moniker of deadjump. Today, I'm go on composing music and when playing live I'm joined by my friend Marcelo Fechio and my brother Jonas who both are occasional members.

SL. I read that you have been also involved in a new-metal formation. Where's the link between both styles of music and are there some metal elements you are using in Deadjump?

D. Hum.... I played samples in a new-metal band in 1998. I'm no longer involved in this band, but I keep listen to a lot of bands in the genre. In the past I used some of these influences, which you can find back on the "Causa Mortis"-album and a song like "Infected" got powerful guitar riffles as well. Back in time bands like FLA (on the "Hard Wired"-cd) and Skinny Puppy used similar elements. I like this kind of music.

SL. So what are the main differences between metal and electronic music (except guitars of course), but thinking to writing, arrangements etc?

D. I think metal music is more organic and sensitive than electronic music. The songs are definitely faster than electronic music. There's no 'rules' and 'habbits' with BPM's and forms like with EBM. Bands now have less creativity and sound equal, so I think we don't have good new bands, but this is just my opinion, of course.

SL. 2006 has been the year of the resurrection for Deadjump! How did it happen the band came in standby for years and what made you finally decide to start again with the "Immortal"-album?

D. Yeah, I stopped in 2000, because of my job, which took me nearly all the time. I sold all my equipments and decided to stop making music. In 2006 I got sick and went through a heavy period. I'd some syndrome of panic and my shrink knew that I made music in the past. So he advised me to make music again as a cure. So, the writing of "Immortal" started. I have no shame to relate this and today I'm 90% better than in 2006 and I feel I still have so much to produce. No more drugs, just music like a drug.

SL. I personally experienced "Immortal" as an album with partly 'old' songs and a few new ones! Tell us a bit more about this album?

D. My come back was in 2006, but my mind was in 2000. So when I began to compose I'd some old ideas to work out and that's probably why most part of the music is a bit classic old-school like. My equipment changed as well and I waste a little time to learn how to use new software. Today it becomes very easy to make music. We no longer need money to make music while in the past I spend a lot of money to buy samplers, synthesizers and others hardware.

SL. So what was the main purpose when writing the "Immortal"-album?

D. The purpose was to make a cool album with different musical influences. I tried to mix all styles I'm listening to in my daily life. So, I made songs with BPM's in between 90 and 135. You can hear now pianos and than hard noise drums. I tried to make a crazy mixture and I think all people will at least love one song because of the diversity of the influencess.

SL. You came back in 2007 with the "Scare Mix"-release on Advoxya Records. What did you try to express with this release?

D. Ah! "Scare" is my favorite one, because I put all my hate into this album. You'll find out that all the songs are faster than on "Immortal" and more aggressive as well. There're strings and melodies, but the main part is about noisy drums, screams and powerful bass lines. I can say that I got all I wanted on this album. I'm pretty satisfied with the global quality of the album; I think the mixing and mastering are very well-done! And the cover is something that invite you to listen… the chorus "Try To Scare Me, Try to Catch Me, It..s A Truth Rhythm Of Death"

SL. How did you get in touch with the Hungarian based Advoxya Records and how are you first experiences for so far?

D. A friend of mine give me Dima's (Advoxya Records owner) email, to exchange some cd's and then he invited me to release the next album by Advoxya. I finally signed to Advoxya Records after having got good deal. It's a good label and Dima is a very nice person. It's just a pity that the distance between both countries is that long.
SL. But being signed on an European label can possibly open some doors for you, but what have been the reactions for so far?

D. Yeah, it's a great opportunity to spread my work around. The people from Europe are growing evere day. I got messages from guys that just love Deadjump and for me it's sufficient to keep going on with my project. I know that in the EBM scene it's nearly impossible to earn a lot of money, but I'm 32 years old, I have a good job and I have no intention to live from my music . I love EBM and much more to make it.

SL. You set up Deadjump in the nineties, which was a decade the Brazilian electronics became a bit popular thanks to a band like Simbolo and the label Cri Du Chat Disques. How do you look back on these times and how is the current electro scene in Brazil doing?

D. It was a great time. Simbolo and Aghast View became like the biggest EBM-exports from Brazil. Cri Du Chat Disques was a great label, but back in time I unfortunately realized it too late. Now, we have some good labels as well, but just small ones and it's not enough to get some attention. In Brazil the things are not so good today. No big events. No big bands are playing here and the scene is really poor. As I said, I'm just making music because I love it and I have no expectations things will changer. But the few live performances I did give me some money to pay all costs.

SL. You've now just released a new album entitled "Post Immortal" so tell us a bit more about the release of this album?

D. Since I started making music I've loved to experiment with news versions of my own songs, so I tried to make the "Immortal"-album more modern, with powerful beats and more aggressive and dirty voices. The main propose is to bring to reality all I've learned over these 14 years.

SL. But what's the fun of making remixes?

D. I'm just loving making remixes and see what other bands are doing with my music. I have a lot of friends as well so it's a great way to make a kind of exchange. Since 1996 I've worked with great bands like: Aghast View, Biopsy, Plastic Noise Experience, Diverje, Polygon, Mortal Constraint, Sleepwalk, Disharmony and others. On the next album "Animus Necandi", I'll work with Acylum and Larva. This album will feature 10 tracks plus two aggressive and very constructed remixes.

SL. How did you come to choose the bands you've been remixed by and are there some others you would like to get a remix from?

D. I'm just listening to music and when I like one of the bands I think that it could be interesting to get a remix from them. And of course, with some label mates it's very simple because Dima makes a good job and all his bands like to exchange experiences and doing remixes. Bands I would love to get a remix from are also two of my favorites: Skinny Puppy and Front Line Assembly. That would be a dream to get a remix from them!

SL. How would you analyse your way of working and writing songs throughout the years and what are the main aspects you take care of?

D. Evolution is a process that I can feel every day. It's incredible because I've always a lot of ideas in mind. I like to make complex music with a lot of patterns, mixing a lot of influences with each other and using everything I've learned with synthesizer (pan, architecture of sound, modulation, pitchbend, LFO, HPF, LPF, resonant and another options). The lyrics are another thing I like to make by myself and I try to manage it a different way than most of the dark bands. I like to write about feelings and good things in life, but also about death, love and angry, past and future.

SL. What's the meaning behind your bandname?

D. Hahahaha. Nothing special. When I choose this name I was more thinking in sonority and it's a form to get more attention, because everybody wants to know what means DEADJUMP. I think it just sounds good.

SL. If you'd to resume the career of Deadjump for so far in one sentence, what would it be?

D. "Aggressive eletronic music from Brazil to rest of the world."

First shot from the triple October series: Advoxya presents a Brazil group DeadJump,which has taken the place of the legendary Brazilian group Aghast View, not active at present since 2003. The fallen banner of Brazilian electro-industrial was raised still above in 2006 by the Brazilian group DeadJump with its already sold off at the given moment album "Immortal". It is not a secret that in South America after the European success of Hocico and Amduscia was a big boome of EBM and associating styles, but in the case with DeadJump success was earned during a 10-year improvement of its soundings and releasing 4 full-format albums (Virtual Masturbation of a bastard Leader/1997, Causa Mortis/1999, Post Mortem/2000, Immortal/2006). Working all the time on grinding of his tracks, Alex knew how to bring up his musical ideas, revealed into a rigid electronic form, to a cold perfection of audio- aggression. The intentions of the group and the proposal of our label came as a result to a long-term project, in the framework of which is planned an exclusive European re-production of the group's best tracks from the period of 2000-2007 years (Post Immortal), and also an issue of an absolutely new material, the work on which soon completes...

Dead Jump "Immortal" E.B.M. (Resistance Beat Music)
http://www.resistancebeat.com.br

Con una excelente producción y mucha calidad, "Inmortal" es el nuevo trabajo del brasileño Alexandre Ramos, el hombre por detrás de Dead Jump, así como también es el primer lanzamiento de la nueva discográfica brasileña Resistance Beat Jump. Incluye 9 canciones inéditas y también 5 interesantes remezclas hechas por Polygon, C-Lekktor (mi favorita), Disharmony, Alien Produkt y Drummel... Los temas más orientados para las pistas de baile son "Heartbreak", "Resist", "Life" y "Inmortal". Como se espera en un álbum de E.B.M./Industrial, las voces están distorsionadas, el ritmo es agresivo y se alternan melodías sombrías y secuencias vigo rosas. Existen pequeñas diferencias entre los temas y una mezcla de estilos que hace que el CD sea bastante audible, probablemente a causa de una cuidada creación y resultado de la experiencia adquirida en más de 10 años en la música electrónica. También hay un notorio "revival" de los 90 e influencias de clásicos como Skinny Puppy, Front Line Assembly y los principios de Project Pitchfork. La gigantesca y gris ciudad de São Paulo nos ofrece un trabajo muy recomendable a los amantes de este estilo... Inmortalidad para el Proyecto y para la Discográfica.
