Warm, dusty acoustic guitars and sandpaper vocals. A deeply intimate, late-night Angolan folk record that balances the ache of exile with gentle, rhythmic resilience.

Moments Worth Listening For

The stark opening of Ilia where Bonga's incredibly raspy, dry-mixed voice enters over a solitary, gently plucked acoustic guitar.

The sudden, warm swell of accordion on Pizza Na Fuló that injects a playful, danceable energy into the otherwise sparse acoustic landscape.

The hypnotic, extended percussion groove on Capoeira that stretches out to over six minutes, building a slow-burning, rhythmic trance.
