"The most interesting thing is to perceive its musical sophistication in line with its instrumental and poetic simplicity. Like a rebel from the interior of Minas Gerais or a hippie from the Americas who decided to fall from a star straight into the studio, the São Paulo born Luciano Ladeira transports us to some old reflective sound atmospheres through their Latin mantras, which refer as much to progressive sound and vocals, made a few decades ago by groups like 14 Bis and Terço, as to engaged music from other times or to Amerindian sounds, especially Andean.

In times when our stories seem to be always repeating each other, without further parallels or perspectives, stop at the classics of MPB, rock, samba or forró to listen to a more telluric and primordial, libertarian and conciliatory song, such as Luciano Ladeira's may represent a more pleasant encounter."
