As a producer, Murphy has a few tracks launched on his discography that shows his
“funky style” of playing and producing. In his very first producings, he was invited to
launch the track “Non Sense” by the brazilian label “Brasil Com S”. After that, the track
“Afinidade“ was chosen to be part of the 2nd compilation of “AMP Mtv Brazil” and the
compilation “Space Live Music” from Sygno Music.
On 2003, he was invited by Christian Fischer to launch “Afinidade“ and “Tem Lenha” by
the German label “Definition Records”, remixed by “Men of Noise” (Christian Fischer
himself). “Tem Lenha“ was launched, reaching a huge success, and quickly it got out of
stock in a lot of record shops around the world. “Boarding time“ is another track that will
be launched by the most inovative brazilian label: Underground Records Brasil URBR.
“Boarding Time” is a track with a lot of swing and percussion, which pumps up any dance
floor.
Murphy got credibility as producer and put the brazilian eletronic music on the spot.
Such success took Murphy on his first tour around Europe, invited by Christian Fischer
and local promoters from Frankfurt, Leipzig and Berlin. In Germany, he was presented in
two radio stations (Corax Radio and Sputnik Radio) and three dance clubs.
His first gig was set on Cult Club, where Christian Fischer was the resident. This first
presentation was very expected by the german eletronic music fans because of Murphy’s
never seen before technical skills.
The second gig took place in Shoot Club, one of the most underground clubs on
Germany. Presenting a funky set, full of hardgrooves and a impecable repertory, the
brazilian dj excited the audience and took the attention of the local press. The last
presentation took place in Berlin at SternRadio Club, where Alex Dee and Noise are the
residents. At this gig, Murphy showed his skills and charisma in a 3 hour pumping
session. Until the end of 2003, Murphy will take off for another tour in Germany and other
countries in Europe.
Back to Brazil, Murphy played at Skol Beats to an audience of 25 thousand people at the
outdoor stage. Presenting a dj set played at 4 turntables. He was one of the major
national attractions on the festival, being praised by the press and the audience.
