Album Notes & Community Reviews

Vitor Ramil's ambitious double album, "Foi no mês que vem," is a profound dialogue between music and South American literature. The diptych meticulously sets the verse of Argentine titan Jorge Luis Borges and Brazilian modernist João Cabral de Melo Neto to a textured, minimalist soundscape. Its sonic architecture is one of deliberate sparsity, weaving nylon-string guitar and regional idioms like the milonga with subtle electronic atmospheres and precisely arranged percussion. Navigating labyrinthine themes of time, geography, and identity, the work is a definitive statement of Ramil's "estética do frio," trading tropical warmth for a contemplative, windswept introspection.
