  Hands Out of My Pocket Project (H.O.M.P.)   The project "Hands out of my pocket" emerged as a request for blessing to the 5 elements that form and regulate life on this existential plane     In all the songs on the project, the bass guitar is the main musical instrument, on which other sounds are "fitted in". The five songs belonging to the project were composed, performed, recorded and mixed by me and therefore, I make my veto explicit about their use for commercial purposes without my authorization   Projeto Hands Out of My Pocket (H.O.M.P.)   O projeto "Hands out of my pocket " ou em português:" Mãos fora do bolso" surgiu como um pedido de bênção aos 5 elementos formadores e reguladores da vida nesse plano existencial   Em todas as músicas do projeto , o contrabaixo é o instrumento musical principal , sobre o qual acontece o "encaixe" de outras sonoridades. As cinco músicas pertencentes ao projeto foram compostas , executadas , gr...

    When an album is released usually there are few songs that touch deep in an unique way.  This instrumental album from Almir Sater , from my perspective , have all songs with this deep touching , i would says it's a "magic" album from him! Thumbs all the way up for this outstanding work !  ;  )    Quando um álbum é lançado, normalmente tem aquelas músicas que te tocam e outras que parecem "normais ". Esse trabalho instrumental do Almir Sater foge do convencional, no meu entender,  por ter a excelência de ir fundo numa conexão transcendental em todas as músicas.  Para mim é o álbum mágico do Almir Sater,  polegares totalmente levantados para o Almir Sater!  ; )

Chapter 15 – The return   Yesterday before going to bed, I set the alarm to go off at 4 o'clock the following day and it was completely unnecessary because throughout the night (which I couldn't sleep) I check the time almost in 1-hour intervals. At 4 am I was already up preparing breakfast and separating the trash to discard before leaving     The day was already clear when at 6:15 I picked up my suitcase, backpack and trash to be disposed of in an appropriate place and headed to the São Thomé das Letras bus station. On the way I saw a situation worthy of an event with a large crowd of people: glasses , cans and garbage through the narrow streets, the odor of beer and urine very present and some people still wandering the streets and trying to enter their homes and guesthouse rooms, some clearly under the influence of substances that alter consciousness. Arriving at the bus station I could see a lot of people waiting for the bus to the Três Corações city . Some peop...
