“I was born in the sun of a big country that free maybe never was, a big country of happy people, of big forests and big cities.” This is how Alberto Camerini's second album opens, and it is clear from the outset that one is dealing with something not easy to categorize, wild, but equally enveloping and fascinating. The overall sound, while diverse, retains its own continuity and comes across as a blend of Brazilian sounds, singer-songwriter songwriting, and DIY bedroom electronics, with Camerini experimenting with the old musical tradition to bring it back to life and throbbing.
The words are true journeys (filled with visions, colours, and sensations), and the author, as an extraordinary translator, fits them precisely to the musical background. It's impossible to pick a favorite song since the album is a one-of-a-kind experience that showcases Alberto Camerini in a state of grace, capable of merging fairy tales, tropical tastes, and poetry.
