about

The album, recorded between December 2022 and April 2023, features special participation from members of the bands Stratus Luna and Dr Fantástico, featuring instrumental tracks and songs, moving between space jazz, art rock and psychedelic music.

Following up on FOL 1, this album maintains and deepens the adventure of improvisations and brings even more psychological landscapes, with intimate songs and instrumental themes that are sometimes smoky, sometimes multicoloured. There is music about rain dripping into a lake, there is colonial rebellion and gusty riffs and manifestos for the liberation of useless objects and big brass and swing bands with curtains of sounds in the background. These songs sound like paintings and appear to be made of scribbles.
