Marcos Feminella is a Berlin-based drummer known for his teaching, recording
and live performances.
Born in Florianópolis, Brazil in 1981, Marcos started to play at the age of 13 and
by the age of 18 he could already be seen playing professionally. From the start of
his career he's always been supported by relatives and friends.
Marcos attended several drum classes and clinics with Brazilian drummers like
Pascoal Meirelles, Nenê, Endrigo Bettega and Kiko Freitas. At the age of 22 he
started to teach at his own studio and now runs his own school called “Academia de
Bateria” Marcos Feminella (Marcos Feminella's Drums Academy).
In 2005, Marcos formed the band Stormental, one of the most original revelations in
the Metal music scene with their raw, progressive and punchy sound. The band
released their first album through the internet for free download and with this, Marcos
won the nomination of one of the top 5 Metal drummers in Brazil in 2006, according to
the site “Metal is the Law”.
With Stormental, Marcos toured Europe twice: In 2006, promoting the band's debut
album and in 2008, released the DVD Mental “Live” Storm and a USB Stick with their
entire work. In 2012, the band released the avant-garde CD/DVD called “Perception
of the Other”, a mix of contemporary dance and Heavy Metal on the same stage.
This union is the result of an earlier experience from 2007 when Marcos was part of a
dance masterpiece by the same dance company (Siedler Cia de Dança). He played
Stormental songs, electronic songs and solos as soundtracks for the dancers.
Marcos plays for Denis Warren in his solo project. He is a London-based Brazilian
guitarist and a long time friend. They recorded the albums “Deep” in 2010 and “High”
in 2013.
Also in 2013, Marcos organized along with Marcelo Moreira (Almah, Burning in Hell)
the “Drums Orchestra”, an event with 25 musicians that made their hometown heart
beat strongly.
Further info:
- In 2007, Marcos released a book with drums transcriptions and comments of 4
Stormental songs: Rising, Stormental, The Conquer and Unleashing the
Madness.
