about

Pastoral is an experimentation and an artwork in itself, exploring traditional music in Portugal. It delves into the monotonous tones of pre-Christian folk music, intertwining them with the richness of contemporary jazz and pop. It captures the manner in which people communicated from mountain to mountain in ancient times. The album begins with "Mirandum," a song I composed the day before my child was born, marking the inception of this project. Collaborating with a friend from my native region in northern Portugal, we produced this album together. For a taste of his music, search for the band Fadomorse. Additionally, I invited the talented pianist Lana GasparØtti to join me on the instrumental tracks "Pastoral" and "Balabala," both of which I co-produced with Andreas Sidenius. The final track, "Balabala," incorporates a sample of Giacometti depicting shepherds leading their sheep to pasture while singing "Arriba ao monte, balabala," roughly translating to "up in the mountain, come on, come on." I reinterpreted the song in my own style with the assistance of Lana and Andreas.

I hope you enjoy it. =)
