Niños del Brasil is a Spanish musical band of gothic rock and electronic music formed in Zaragoza in the mid-1980s. After publishing four studio albums and one of rarities, the group disbanded in 1997. In 2007, they reunited to release two EPs, and in 2009 they released a new album.

The formation of the group took place in Zaragoza in 1986, as a merger of members of different groups, at a time of great musical effervescence in the Aragonese capital. Its name was inspired by the 1978 film Los Niños del Brasil. Its aesthetics, rigorously black in color, soon began to attract attention, as did its mix of techno-pop and guitar rock.

The first formation consisted of Santiago García Maynar (who adopted Santi Rex as his artistic name) as singer, Nacho Serrano on keyboards, Antonio Estación on electric bass and Enrique Bunbury (who also belonged to Héroes del Silencio) on guitar. For the live performances, the group had Pedro Andreu (also from Héroes del Silencio) on drums. In 1987 they recorded their first demo with 4 songs, but the following year Enrique and Pedro left the group due to the inability to combine it with their activity in Héroes del Silencio, which were beginning to take off in their careers.

It is in 1989 when they record their first album, Del amor y del hate, highly influenced by the pop of the 80s. Nacho Saldaña collaborates as guitarist and Manchu, who joined the drums, who would be integrated into the group. In 1990, Sony Music hired them and reissued their debut album, with whose first single, Las curves del gusto, made their first appearance on TVE. With Sony they recorded Messages to the Wind in 1991, and in 1993 they released their third album, Worlds in Eclipse, which marked an important change in their music, but sales did not support them and their contract with Sony was terminated. Despite this, their promotion was good and they appeared in programs on Telecinco, TVE and ETB.

With more changes in their line-up (Manchu and Antonio Estación left and Salva Honrubia and Jacobo Dobbie joined), the band formed their own label, Discos del amor y del hate to manage their work. On this label, they published The Empire of the Senses in 1996, with which they put an end to their career a year later. Still, in 1997, they published The Rain in Your Eyes, an album of remixes and rarities.

In 2007, taking advantage of the media pull of the return of Héroes del Silencio and the collaboration with Enrique Bunbury on a new song, Niños del Brasil recorded two new EPs, which earned them, at the Aragonese Music Awards, the award in the section of best song, for Shooting Star. Later, made up of the founding trio, they began a tour originally destined for the local sphere, and in June 2009 they released a new album, Geminis.
