The sun is shining again and its beautiful reflective rays hit the ground and bounce off with warmth and shimmering light. It is just at the same time as Ramiro Pinheiro, a Brazilian hero who wears his acoustic guitar and carries his innovative heart, and off he goes to dazzle the Brazilian and Spanish music scene! Ramiro is a virtuosic acoustic guitarist and a savvy songwriter from Brazil but relocated to Barcelona 14 years ago and has been making a name for himself in the Spanish local scene where he has had the opportunity to work with a catalog of the top jazz and Brazilian musicians.
Ramiro is a dynamic performer whose style of jazz music transcends stylistic boundaries as he combines his impeccable songwriting versatility and artistry with his gift of getting at the heart of a song. His repertoire spans great jazz standards and contemporary music as he harnesses his acoustic guitar virtuosity and songwriting wizardry seamlessly between powerhouse delivery and lyrical sounds!
He has a 9-piece album dubbed “Sentido” which translates to “Sense” where he invited a host of other artists and the final result is a scintillating masterpiece with tracks like; “QUATRO VENTOS”, “VIAGEM NOVA”, “SABOR DE MADRUGADA”, “TUTU” and “CANTO TRISTE” just to mention a few. This is a wealthy melodic journey that requires a listener to strap in their safety belts and enjoy the ride!
“Quatro Ventos” is the type of soothing and therapeutic music to study, relax and de-stress with its refined qualities forming some dreamy euphony where the acoustic guitar integrates with the clarinet for that relaxed retro sound that caresses the deep elements of the heart and soul- a melody that sits at the touchstone of genuinely relaxing and comforting brilliancy! You simply cannot get enough of this pacifying melody and you will play it on repeat as it takes you on a spin of marvelous fantasies; healing and uplifting your spirits in ways you couldn’t imagine possible!
“Viagem Nova” on the other hand brings warmth and light with some emotional, pure, and polished vocals by Hugo Arán doing the magic over the guitar solo blended with the double bass rhythm to design an ageless melody that feels eternal and takes the listener on a journey through rhythmic mars where everything feels alright without any looming danger!
There is a lot of dynamism, unpredictability, showmanship, and adroitness throughout this album for listeners to marvel and quench their melodic thirst with these rhythmically balanced tunes and the luxurious stylish instruments like the electric guitars, trombone, trumpet, accordion, and flute featured in some tracks to keep a listener heavily engaged. This is what stunning innovation looks like and Ramiro really does hit the cadence nail on its head with “Sentido”
