Daniel Spencer Brito (Nhelas Spencer)
- compositor
- músico
Composer with themes recorded by several of the main interpreters of Cape Verdean music, Nhelas Spencer had at least two of his themes, Nha Terra scalabrode e Torrão di meu, transformed into classics in Ildo Lobo's voice, as vocalist of "Os Tubarões".
His compositions usually show the observer of everyday situations, brushstrokes with a certain humour, other times turning to social criticism and customs, but there is also room for romantic themes, in creations that, generally within the rhythms of the lukewarm and koladera, are peculiar for their melodic beauty and the harmonic sequences that escape the usual.
