Psyte – Introduce yourself and explain a little more about the sound you play. Where do you live? How long have you been playing?

Giuliano - Well. I started as a chillmaker I guess about 10 years ago, in Geneve, Swiss, playing Juncle Jazz and Drum n Bass. For the next years came trip hop eith dub between, eletronic groove and funk. Those were the most conected styles with us smokers. After studied Musichoteraphy, I start the ambient joined dub athnosphere odyssey. Well, for end, who wouldn’t like to be able to listen and divulge all the prophets ans artists which most believe? I really thank Jah for all that He has been doing for me and still does, and for making me travel a lot to this country, and also, some places in this world too. But nowadays I found my peace down here in Florianópolis, Santa Catarina. I live 2 squares from sea and I can say how I feel blessed for living what I do, and I cant explain to you a lot about it, but it’s in here and simply with Jah Love that I create all necessary emotions to play.



Psyte – We know that in Brasil, Chill Out at parties and trance festivals had appear long time ago, tell us how was it at the beginning and what year was that?

Giuliano - Well.. Chill started about year 2000, in Curitiba, Paraná, when I came back from Swiss! Together with Shasco in some privet parties, very cool, roots situation. So Xxxperience came to Curitiba for the first time. Together with Jeje they made the first Chill in Brasil. I played for 12 hours at a roots DJ cabin at the floor and in my knees. Picups and cd players at time were a joke next todays cd players.It was a great vibe man. After some parties with internacional djs playing, like max eticnica rec et cristoff 3d vision rec at loto f Curitiba’s clubs, I got to go to Trancendence in Alto Paraíso. There I got to meet Rafa that was also playing there.He let me play cause he wasn’t feeling so good. Playing there, I knew Fish org from Solipse Festival wich made Trancendence’s Chill Out, same which some time after that called me to play at Solipse 2001 edition in África. After Trancendence I took of for São Paulo where we get the real chill philosophy started!! Till today, for me, all free full moon parties were unspeakable man! All founders, Smurf, Marcelão. Zaca, Gen, Gui, Charles, Cristian, Schasco, Rafa, Talita, Michel, Gil Mahadeva, and a bunch of people which my memory didn’t record, ops. But nowadays, chill makers culture enlarge a lot. In every city, chill vibration family grow. Finally, lot of light and positive vibration for all jedis and people who listen chillout music. Jah Bless all!!



Psyte – And how was it this process, there were any diferences to how it is actually?

Giuliano - The process was the union and will force from a lot of people sharing the same chill out purpose – (Calma aí). Also we had to fight a lot to earn space inside parties, and we had to prove that us chillmakes had the strength to carrie people who dragged theirselves, really tired from strong and repetitive beats at dance floor. Then came the first parties freaks time, which was a tuff fase. But with the chill vibration we could bring back lot of freaks. (helo helo marcian, earth speaking). Soft music, low frequencies. So, I guess the union and nature celebration together with brotherhood feeling among all human being, that shows of Chill Out was made to you feel at home, better, you are already home, in nature. Our ancestors lived like this, so, in some how, certainly, be welcome to your home. Then the chill out interest emerges at parties and festivals which started to gether, and , for sure, people started to have more conscience of what we’re doing. Then we came to what chill out became nowadays, well received, joinfull, not justa t parties, but also at all kinds of places. I, myself, play at the beach www.kiwibar.com.br, there Chill Out is well listen by over 60 people and even by children. Of course, the sonority have changed and now there are several styles which oscillate as people and hours, and, for sure, as nature. Nowadays it got more easy to say eletronic world music. Finishing, congratulations to all whom had strengthenn to keep their culture alive.

Psyte – Which was the best Chill Out?

Giuliano - The best Chill Out was in África, at Solipse Festival’s After part, 2001. Were 10 days at Junglejunction Island, next to Zimbabwe. There I played Chill at afternoons and loto f dub. Also rootslizing the Island, natives together with Laurent from Hight Light Tribe, made the perfect sound track with lot of Jah vibe man. Glorious demonstration of percussion culture, bigger lesson of life. In the magical nights playing underground trance and to close with golden key, last day moon eclipse hapenned. Something to stop music and everybody watched the moon appearing by the river. Man, best chill out life style alive... Jah love moment.




Psyte – Which were the greaters allies to Chill Out’s changes and growing in Brazil?

Giuliano - First of all, for sure, spiritual was JAH. But here in Brazil I have a list: in first place is Milton, Teko from Klatu and Nena, Daime Tribe which believed in Chill Out at parties (first of all was in a small Daime Tribe at a dam I guess, and later at a cave under lot of rain, me and Smurf we hold much stuff, but as I said, family..) then together with Rica, Marcelão, Milton, Nena, Diogo (org boom festival) we had one of the scene’s coolest and important moment, Ypy Poty Festival, there Chill Out was blessed!! In second place is Marcelo VOR and Ivan which invited myself and Smurf to make Freak*a*delic’s Chill that for me was the best Chill at the time in clubs. It had everything, puffs, air condicional and always full of people. There, Chill Out got strenght and expanded to a lot of diferent places, an example of that nowadays its ID which remind this vibe very well. In Third place is Vistar e Ateda from Trancendance, which were great allies building na Oca and, even before it, they already had a seriour infra. It was really the family warriors vibe!! At this wonderful Oca, one festival before this last one, I had one of the best moments of my career, dance floor finished last day and there was I, at Oca, full of people dancing around fire, magic moments. In fourth place is Du Serena and Soneca, which together with Solaris, has been defending alternative electronic music very well at São Paulo, big respect. In fifth place cames André from Transformation, best Chill Out river, speechless... The sixth place is the most important of all, all the admires, composers, musicians, conected with this relaxing sonour culture and simple life style!! And, of course, all those who had a little patience. It really worth it... thanks to all those who believed in this life style (Chill Out – “Calma aí”) or Chill Out Life Style.



Psyte – Giuliano, I know that you studied Musichoterapy, just like me. Why dont you tell us what is the idea which musichoterapy has about Chill Out.

Giuliano - Well, as I already said, it has a proposal to bring a bigger integracion of the human being with his sonours nature, activating sensations, emotions, memories, and, for sure, by the teorical side, it envolves philosofy, religion, ethnies and lot of waves and sonours frequency control. All sound has a quantic structure which continuously reverberates its notes, and like this making the rhythmic células. That come from our primary communication. We fell more the sound that we rationalize, then basically with an intention tunning, we all can be conected with this amazing energy from the present time and speaking the same language. Just like all others living creatures of cosmos does: here at earth, plants and animals, all of them comunicates through this vibe and, on and on... always respecting and following the ancestral primordial philosophy. Like this, the whole Universe speaks between itself. I call this Jah Love Universal... Making more simple, its to love and praise the Primordial Creator among every other things, allowing His Light reflecting inside of self, allowing also Jah guides you eternally through the sacred way of life. Jah Bless all. And any doubts just send a message to www.djgiuliano.blogspot.com
Ah! Wait for the launching of the album Above Babilon, for Wajanga Rec, which will have only brazilians artists, foreseen for Carnaval.
