ONIRIC VISION - Recording and producing the first album
The project ONIRIC VISION starts from a selection of ten musical compositions, recently created in order to record a new album and to be played in tour.
This project comes in the continuation of the work that I have been developing through music and photography. A deconstruction of reality, as a way of feeling an invisible dimension.
The Album is divided into two parts, one acoustic and instrumental the other electronic and vocal. The project includes the following musicians: Diogo Santos, Xico Santos, André Ferreira, André Mota, Rui Alves, João Roque, Marcos Alves and Melo d .. The recording will be done in the new studio of Paulo Abelho and mixed by Tiago Lopes. Graphics by Susana Cruz.
