Porto Do Son is a region on the Atlantic Coast, where Jan Wagner and Dimitri Käch met during the summer of 2019. They spent the long days together enjoying the serene rustling of the sea and found a place where they could create music unbounded.
When they returned to Berlin, they locked themselves into a studio for four days. The ocean, the landscape and the light were still everywhere. Headphones were like shells that you hold to your ear to hear the endless sounds of the sea. Everything moved in the rhythm of the waves. Dancing water became ambient guitar textures, melodies passed like streams of fog in the sunlight, pulsing guitars and synthesizers towered over the horizon like clouds. The songs on "Porto Do Son" were created without many words and in chronological order. The album is a declaration of love to the Atlantic: wild, dark blue and beautiful.
