Dream Metaphor was born in 2004 and has been suffering many mutations during its path. It begun as a futuristic and dark ambient, influenced by Sci-fi, where the machines operated by Leonel Ranção (aka [Replycant]), started transforming dreams into musical notes and atmospheric sounds. Soon a female voice was added to enhance those same dreams. Feeling that that way of materializing dreams was still incomplete, since the interpretations of the oniric world are so unlimited, Dream Metaphor transformed itself into an artistic multimedia collective, where Joana Ranção joined to give those dreams a corporeal form, with her dancing and artistic movements. Music, voice, dance and images combined, and the initial concepts gone now giving place to a new world of metaphors, linking the past and present, to traditions and cultural roots of the Nordeste transmontano ( Northeast of Portugal). But as dreams will always be the fountain of life, a time may come where everything may change, a new path may be found... and paths always have crossroads...

I'm a portuguese musician and sound engineer.

I make music regardless of style or genre, as long as I have fun doing it and it sounds good to me.

Nowadays mostly into creating soundtracks, either orchestral or electronic based, for movies or games.
Although I enjoy doing random electronic sounds a lot, as you might see in the future.
