Since the “huge” success of brazilian Indie Electronic bands Cansei de Ser Sexy (CSS for international audiences) and Bonde do Rolê many musicians in Brazil and specially in Recife had been encouraged to go into electronic indie scene and resort on state of art gadgets to create music and make people have fun instead of trying to change the world.

(For god’s sake! We already have Sting and Bono to save the world, so let’s just dance for a while!)

Voyeur is a very new cool band on this scene, formed by musicians that were already in the market playing with other successful local bands at the pubs, and, woow yeah, they fastly could found their own room amongst more experienced bands in  recife’s indie scenario, and you could tell even Brazil wide – some of their songs were included in the soundtrack for brazilian MTV series “Descolados” (Cool People).

They sound very eighties (they remind me an old band called My Life with the Thrill Kill Kult), or maybe very 2000 trying to sound eighties, just like Elastica or Blur, with their mixture of  hard guitars and electronic beats (you could also tell they’re very influenced by Electro scene).

The songs are nice and very humorous,  the lyrics talk about contemporary people and their adventures on sex and love, and they are very energetic on the stage, sometimes using real drums, sometimes just an electronic set.

Lead vocalist Ju Orange also produces local bands, and is  a very charismatic band leader.

Ok, let’s listen to it huuu… Couldn’t find many songs from Voyeur to you on the net, but those three at their MySpace sound cool enough to make you follow them.
