This is what I wrote down when listening:
First, immediate reaction: a pleasant surprise!

The first song: All the time breaking a structure and building a structure in a manner which keeps my interest up

I am not at all bothered by the same melody repeating, there is so much happening.

Just when I thought it would be time to end, it ended -
but the next one was no downer

That's a melodica there in the mix of the second song, right? Anyone who uses a melodica in a song has my respect :-)

Tasteful acoustic guitar solo at the end.

Third song - by now you've convinced me with your musicianship, I wish I understood the lyrics.

Were all the instruments played by you?

I listened all the three songs focusing to them all the time, this is great stuff! Thank you for sharing!

Can I ask: Is that the music style known as Fado ?

Guitar playing is great, especially sounds good paired with the accordion. I really like the ambience used in the recording.

Very nice, they all have a pleasent flow. I only found one thing that i would have done, bring up the drums on the track VERANEIO a couple of db's, percussion is on spot.

Complimenti for the effort

Thank you so much for the full review of my album! I composed, produced and played all the instruments. When we see Jacob Collier doing that it seems to be easy but it is a killing job for normal people and we always make some mistakes...

I'm not a good melodica player, but I'm glad you liked it kkk

The last song, Regressar, is the most complex song, lyrics and music. A translation of the last phrase of the song would be:

"Today missing you carry my soul away, maybe it will find you when I return"
It's very poetic, I don't know if it makes sense in english kkk

The songs are in portuguese language, as we speak in Brasil.

Thank you!
Actually I made a mix of rythms there kkk
The first song would be a brazilian rythm called "afoxé", like a famous song called "Toda Menina baiana" by Gilberto Gil. The second a jazz song and the last a valse.

Fado usually have 2/4 time signature and have a fast BPM. It is a music genre from Portugal

Thank you! I felt the same about the percussion but It was very hard to mix the song for me and Veraneio has a lot of instruments.
