Luis Davis in Toronto
Class of ’07
Luis Davis has wrapped up his debut album, a project that he had been working on for the past three years. The Brain Fluid LP is dedicated to his younger brother Roberto Najar, who tragically died at the age of 19, after 100 days of coma due to a traffic accident in New York City in 2006.
“Our brain produces a considerable amount of fluid every day, that is absorbed by our body, through physical and mental activity. For me, that liquid represents the different states of mind and moods that life can have”, Luis breaks down the concept behind the LP. “The album is a tribute to Roberto Najar, my younger brother. We were both very much inspired by house music, and that was the main reason why Roberto had left to NYC. He basically followed my footsteps! Brain Fluid is my transcription of this tragic story into sound and hopeful melancholy.”
Here’s a mix of the whole album that he put together. Grab the link below, and look out for the full album to be released on
Mad Bros Records, on September 1.
