Bossa Nova literally means ‘new flair’ or ‘new trend’ in Portuguese. It is a style that was created in the late 1950’s. It is basically a fusion of Samba and Jazz, using traditional Brazilian rhythms. Here I add a Bluesy Twist to it, hope it works! 
First, you'll hear a clean guitar sound, then introducing a more overdriven one, for the grand final  :)))

Bio: I'm a portuguese self taught guitar player with a passion for good music. I like all genres of music but the ones I find myself enjoying the most are tracks that have a bluesy, jazzy sound to it.
Growing up at from about age 6-10 I listened to a lot of grunge, nu metal and other genres but mostly nirvana, korn, limp bizkit, pearl jam, stone temple pilots, radiohead, the offspring and system of a down. From 10 to about 16 I listened to a lot of hip-hop and reggae music, mostly portuguese hip-hop bob marley and gentleman. 
It was only at 16 that I finally first picked up a guitar. I fell in love with it from the start, and as soon as I learned the first chords I knew I wanted to be a player. The moment for me that I said I want to do this was after looking up "Blues" on youtube and listening to a bb king solo. I was so amazed at what he could do with the guitar and the whole style he created that it completly blew my mind!
After I started playing guitar I started expanding my music taste to all diferent genres ranging from my guitar favorites like: jimi hendrix, b.b. king, led zeppelin, pink floyd, john mayer and dire straits to jazz/blues/rnb greatest: Frank sinatra, stevie wonder, miles davis, chet baker to totally different genres like Tool, The doors, sbtrkt, alt-j, tame impala, the xx, Manel Cruz, Linda martini, etc etc.

So this here is my little project, I trully love making tracks and posting them online for you guys to enjoy :)

Three men who like rocking garage heavy metal (80s and 90s thrash metal, oldschool death, punk, grind rock and stuff), drinking beer and texting funny, amazing and bloodthirsty lyrics (Highschool problematics, German historical problematics, frogs, panters/lepards/tigers etc., cold war, Punic Wars, Sioux wars, murderer, true crime etc). And drinking beer.

Everyone, I will be in and out of the hospital this month, resting, exercising, and doing other things, so my activities here may be slow. Of course, I will return to my normal daily routine after a while, so please be prepared for that..think my physical health situation will be stable by October(2025).😊😊😊

Because of the "era of Corona", I decided to revisit those who have been out of touch for a long time. Most of them have their accounts asleep for a while, but I dare to knock on the door. At least I'll keep doing that for a few more days :)

"To my mind, a BLUES doesn't have to be a 12-bar progression. To me, if a song has the right emotion then I accept it as BLUES" - PETER GREEN

"I go by feel, I go by feel. 
The only way I know what's real" - BUDDY GUY

Mostly, as a self-taught guitar player (maybe not... considering all the influences and internet/book resources I've come across lately!)  and rather than trying to be anything remotely near a good player of any great technique, I'm not bound by genre or clichés; I just like to go for it. It's a whole lot better that way. 
Blues is a human expression of emotion. That may explain why I felt called to blues music, even though, I grew up in Europe, a continent apart from the music’s heartlands in America’s Deep South. And that may also be the reason for the great Portuguese Bluesmen we have nowadays (The Legendary Tigerman/Frankie Chavez/Budda Power Blues/Rui Veloso/Dead Combo/The Black Mamba/Mazgani and many others...)

I’m a fan of raw guitar players who aren’t really polished… you’re not sure if it’s all going to fall apart.  Those who, rather than trotting out a collection of preconceived practised licks and lines, take some chances along the way, creating ideas on the spot. IMHO they sound more exciting and impressive for it. I play whatever comes into my head. It's an adventure because when I do a breakdown or a solo, it's new each time and I just let it go... The majority are first take. I just turn it on and press record...they are mostly one moment in time. I’m always looking for something. Sometimes I’m not quite sure what, but you just have to keep looking...
The real beauty is playing without thinking and once you have some concepts down, what comes out, is from the heart.  It's second nature. 
I just enjoy listening and playing some music, in honour of that timeless way of killing time (just for the fun of it...and whenever inspired: "If you're not feeling it, don't play it!"). I'm happiest picking out a blues tune to a suitable backing track. After all, simple music is the hardest to play...
For me, half the battle is to get the right sound. And that, in turn, inspires how you play.
As a tone fiend, I like to let those bluesy guitar tones breathe a little bit. But, almost everything I play, it never, ever comes out quite the way I heard it in my head. Sometimes I end up with something that's kind of close, but it's not quite what intended originally. These uploaded tracks are no exception... They are far from being perfect. First of all, I'm not a fan of perfection when it comes to music...it may even compromise the tone, but if the tone is there, great! It sounds like a human being playing guitar. 
As Dan Patlansky once said "I would rather hear an average player with a great guitar tone than a great player with a bad tone".
 I love stuff that sounds like a spontaneous real-life experience. Playing music is a human activity, and we humans are far from perfect! There is a certain charm in something that feels human with the flow of a spontaneous performance. It's that spontaneity that makes for the magic... 
Feel free to comment good, bad or indifferent and do not hesitate to share any ideas you might have. 

Favourite guitarists (old school suspects apart):
Matt Schofield;  Jim Campilongo;  Walter Trout; Robin Trower; Joe Bonamassa; Andy Timmons; Gregor Hilden; Robben Ford; Larry Carlton (among others)...

Some support for your fine stuff 🍀
