It’s 2022 and jazz returns to MiMi. We couldn’t return to jazz without musicians like João Tavares, Michael Smith and Filipe Larsen. Fernando Resendes is the guest who brings with him the electronics that are perfectly involved with the saxophone, the electric bass and the drums.

This first volume prod our curiosity. Four improvised parts that take us to Casa Grande da Caloura, on the island of Azores, in 2021. The island is an important part of this narrative. Anyone who has been there knows that the climate is different, that the lightness of the island is reflected in the sounds that are part of this record. Music that remind us of the sudden change between the sun and the rain, between the heat and the goosebumps on the skin. Cadences that make us wait for the next step.

Dynamic and memorable.
Close your eyes and absorb the story. It is obvious that it will not end in this volume.
