Nuno Mor\u00e3o \u2022 Som Alvo<\/span>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Nuno Mor\u00e3o:<\/strong> djembe, tom, bongos, conga, darbouka, floor tom, adufe<\/p>\n

Recorded in 2028, this is the first solo album by percussionist Nuno Mor\u00e3o, who is also involved in other musical projects such as The Selva, Medusa Unit, Cacto and Madalena Palmeirim. The album comprises seven tracks that explore a wide range of timbres and polyrhythms, created using a seven-piece membranophone percussion kit.<\/p>\n

\u201cMor\u00e3o\u2019s approach to this percussive journey is centred on a polyrhythmic incursion through torrid, pulsating geographies\u2014congruent with \u2018the hot August night\u2019 in which the recording session took place\u2014in which certain rhythmic motifs are repeated with slight variations in tempo, intensity and even form, in progression, now sketching chromatic geometries rich in resonances and angularities, now traversing desert-like expanses where tribes and primordial identities are summoned along the way. A continuous practice of progressive symbiosis with the instrument gives rise both to hypnotic meditations\u2014enchanting even to the most frivolous of minds\u2014and to purgative rituals steeped in voodoo and darker magic.\u201d \u2014 Jo\u00e3o Morado in Beats For Peeps<\/p>\n
