Mirante
Mirante, the ninth album by Nick Storring, is an impressionistic, multi-instrumental homage to Brazil. Across seven movement-rich tracks, Storring weaves liquid ambient textures, intricate rhythms, and a panoply of both Brazilian and experimental influences, forging an album that balances celebratory groove and lush introspection.

According to Wikipedia “Caprimulgidae are a family of birds consisting of around 95 extant species of nightjars." Digging a little deeper, we learn from Libération that "the word caprimulgidae comes from the Latin caprimulgus, literally meaning 'goat sucker.'
