Meio que tudo é um

Released in 2017, 'Meio que tudo é um' represents the third full-length studio effort from Porto Alegre's Apanhador Só. Following the critical success of 'Antes que tu conte outra', this album signaled a tonal shift toward a 'lighter vibe,' as noted by the band and critics alike. While maintaining their hallmark 'sucateiro' (scrap-metal/found-object) percussion style, the record incorporates more traditional chamber pop elements and a folk-leaning fragility. The production is characterized by its use of domestic field recordings and a stripped-back, analog warmth that emphasizes the physical space of the recording. Notable collaborations with artists like Perotá Chingó and Luis Gabriel Lopes broaden the album's palette, introducing diverse vocal textures that complement the band's gentle, often harmonized delivery. It stands as a mature, cohesive statement that balances experimental art-rock tendencies with the melodic accessibility of the Brazilian singer-songwriter tradition.
