Album Notes & Community Reviews

The acoustic duo radically deconstructs traditional Brazilian forms like Samba and Bossa Nova through an incredibly minimalist, avant-garde lens. The recording relies on extremely sparse guitar interplay, microtonal tuning, and highly unorthodox, disjointed vocal phrasing to subvert rhythmic expectations.
