Music and recording

The album was produced by Arto Lindsay.[2] "While some of the melodies are quintessential bossa fare, the lyrics often have something of the enigmatic beauty of haiku: 'Berlin', for instance, takes a backward glance at the Siegessäule column in the Tiergarten".[3]

Reception

The Independent's reviewer described it as "laid-back, drifting samba-jazz".[2] The Sunday Times commented that it "cements his reputation as one of Brazil's finest exports".[3]
