Hi there! My name is Rafael Baffini. I am Brazilian, but I live in Canada since 2015. I am a very creative person and I really love music. I started learning music when I was 6 years old, taking piano lessons from my aunt. I had a lot of fun at that time, but I never got is seriously until I had a guitar on my hands, at age 13. Since them, I never stopped playing.
I had the chance to learn from great musicians, to attend master classes from big names like Frank Gambale, to join a band that had a very busy schedule, to compose and work on production, to release a CD (yes, I am an old guy already, at that time there was no music streaming), to teach young guitar players, to participate in and to act as the director of music festivals, and to perform in all sorts of venues, from churches to concert halls.
Life sent me to a different professional way, and nowadays music is my biggest hobby. Sometimes, it is also part of my job. As a creative director, I compose and perform my own soundtracks for projects like promotional videos and advertising, among other things.
My main instrument is the electric guitar, but I also play and record acoustic guitars, bass guitar, keyboard and digital drums and percussion.
More I am getting older (and probably rusty LOL), more I consider myself far way from being a shredder. I do play leading guitar, but instead of playing like a machine gun, firing as many notes per bpm as possible, I prefer playing as a "sniper," firing only the best notes at the right time, having more attention to details and creating more melodic and unique phrases.
I always gave priority to original compositions, trying to reproduce "the songs inside my head" and sharing them with the world. I play pretty much what I want to hear, but probably haven't found someone that played it that way.
I love helping other musicians and composers to give life to their own creations. I have a very limited time I can spend on Kompoz collaborations. Therefore, I really pick the projects that I believe I will have more fun with. I am always open to invitations, but cannot always accept them. Don't take it personally if it happens.
