A beautiful auditory journey through Aljezur, Portugal. The sounds on this album are a perfect backdrop for an isolated, contemplative state of mind. No other album that I’ve heard has captured the rawness of lost love, misunderstood love, loneliness. The barebones instrumentation is so beautifully quiet and minimal, yet it illustrates so much thanks to the raw recordings. An amazing album that I’d wish everyone check out.
