Osso Exótico

Osso Exótico is a Portuguese experimental group formed in 1989 and based in Lisbon, built around the brothers André and David Maranha. The group plays mostly acoustic instruments, often modified, with few effects, and makes slow drone music of sustained sounds that change gradually over time. Over the years its work has moved closer to theatre, using objects and minimal actions. Osso Exótico first appeared on record with Osso Exótico I, an LP on Multinational in 1990, followed by II and III on Carbo Records and IV on Staalplaat.
