Hermes Trimegisto

This is my take on "Jingle Bells". I recorded it more than four years ago, using a really low-end PC and a free application called Audacitiy. Despite the technical limitations, I was (and still am) proud of the result. 

Those days I was really into doing acoustic guitar versions to put on my Youtube channel. Since I didn't have any means of filming myself, I usually would just do the audio, then I would build a video made of pics downloaded from the internet that I felt somewhat related to the songs. The channel still exists: search on Youtube for "Dimitri De Alencar" if you're curious to know this period of my music.

Merry Christmas to all of you!

Jingle Bells

This is my rendition for the traditional song "Auld Lang Syne". Like the previous cover I uploaded, this one was also recorded more than four years ago, using the low-end PC I had at the time and the free DAW Audacitiy.

Auld Lang Syne

"Treta" is a Brazilian slang that means a quarrel, a fight. Enjoy the listening!

Treta

This one is a fusion between funk and jazz with a heavy Brazilian accent. "Nervoso" means nervous, restive, on the edge. Enjoy the listening and have a most pleasant week!

My new song, "Súplica". Enjoy the listening, and have a wonderful week!

Súplica

The very simple melody of this song came accidentally when I was practising over some peculiar chord changes, hence the title of the song. I like how this simplicity contrasts with the jazzy, modulating chord progression. Hope you enjoy it as well.

Peace,
Dimitri.

Casual

"Rebolado", the title of the song, is the act of "rebolar", that is, to dance moving the hips. Here in Rio, the word can be used as a slang, meaning to improvise a solution or to find a creative way to get out of trouble.

The song is driven by the bass and guitar interaction, and there is even a very fast bass and guitar solo duet near the end of the song. There are also plenty of synthesized sounds going on, and the first presentation of the main theme is done with a nice synth tone.

Enjoy the listening, and I hope you have as much fun listening and dancing to this tune as I had creating it. As always, wish you all a fantastic weekend.

Rebolado

"Quid Pro Quo" is a latin expression that has a different meaning in Portuguese and English: in Portuguese, it means a misunderstanding, a mistake, while in English is just an exchange of one thing for another, "tit for tat". 

Enjoy the listening, and have a fantastic week. Remember: if you like the song, tell me by clicking in the little heart just below it. Comments are also welcome!

Love,
Dimitri.

Quid Pro Quo

This is my new song, born in a hot Brazilian afternoon. "Frenesi" is the Portuguese word for "Frenzy". 

Enjoy the listening! If you like the song, please say it by clicking on the little heart: it means a lot to me. Comments also will be much appreciated. Have you all a fantastic week.

Peace,
Dimitri.

"Holofotes", this song's title, means "floodlights". Enjoy the listening, and have a fantastic week!

Holofotes

"Mocó" is the name of a large rodent that grows in dry places, such as the Caatinga of the northeastern Brazil, where it's sometimes hunted for food.  Enjoy the listening and have a great weekend!

Mocó

The name of my new song, "Paisagens", means "landscapes" in Portuguese. Like the one I uploaded last week, this one also explores the modal flavor of the Brazilian northeastern music. Hope you like it, and don't forget to give the song a "little heart" if you do.

Peace,
Dimitri.

Paisagens

Matador, the name of my new song, means "killer", and the same suits well the sound: a killer instrumental rock'n'roll, in the tradition of the classics of the genre, to be heard loud. Enjoy the listening, and give feedback.

Love,
Dimitri.
