When I started the journey of creating this album, I had a clear vision in mind. Inspired by the captivating rhythms of bossanova, I aimed to blend it's beautiful guitar chord progressions with elements of pop music and modern hip hop beats. My goal was to craft music that would uplift spirits and make you wanna dance.
The process began with meticulous songwriting and collaborating, as I spent a year experimenting with various ideas, to find the strongest melodies and stories. Once the songs took shape, I delved into recording live instruments and more writing with Rob Montes setting the stage for the next phase.
Finding the right producer to infuse the hip hop element was crucial, and I feel incredibly fortunate to have crossed paths with Manzur, also known as The Universe, and mixing engineer Bob Horn. Their collaboration brought my vision to life in ways that exceeded my expectations.
Over the course of several years, I have pieced together the visual elements to complement the music. For me, music and visuals are inseparable companions, each enhancing the other's impact.
While the journey to this point has been long, the excitement of finally sharing this music with the world is immeasurable. I'll be releasing the songs one by one on all music platforms.
Thank you for joining me on this journey.
