With its evocative title, Primeiro Disco can be appreciated as an inaugural journey to the meeting of José’s various biographical, cultural and musical influences.
Portugal, the artist’s family birthplace, floods these 13 new tracks with a singular warmth, a deep and bright light. From the lyrical imprint of fado to explosive forays into electro/clubbing and pop flights of fancy with catchy choruses, José allows himself nothing. Without ever getting rid of a strange but typical melancholy – the saudade – this so personal excursion wants to be solar, dancing and summery.
José R.FONTAO‘s solo project is now enriched with a new video! After the radiant Dada, the delirious Beyond Doubt and the striking lyricism of Primavera, let’s make way for the romantic poetry of Paraiso ! This track absorbs the light of Portugal which cradled it, to restore all the beauty and all the intensity. A single with electro-pop shimmer that smells good the return of the beautiful days and the first love.
Directed by Adrien & Quentin De Grivel from Biscuit Studio, the animated clip of Paraiso takes us into a dance between two beings, a love ritornello between break-up and passionate desire. Inspired by the Japanese and Korean iconography of “slimes”, this colorful video with a tangible dreamlike quality traces the different phases of the amorous encounter: the candor and lightness of the beginnings, the appearance of the first turbulences, the bursting of storms… until the discovery of a Paraiso, a paradise where lovers live again, reform and find all their colors.
