TOCO
RECORDS
From the start, it was clear that Onde Nasce a Chuva was an original project. There was room to explore new directions — both in sound and visuals.
The songs don't directly address love or sadness. They observe time, the details, and the subtleties of life.
In the single "Vários Formatos," the question arises:
"Why must we be everything at once?"
Without being literal, the music reflects a feeling of the present time — the constant demands we face and the exhaustion that arises from them. This tension appears in the subtext, in the choice of words that define the band's identity.
In Ctrl-Z, the reverse side:
"I have no way to go back."
It offers a reflection on moments we would like to relive, but which cannot be resumed. A mature perspective, expressed simply.
It was for these reasons that working with Toco Records became possible.

Initial draft of the 'Ctrl-z' cover and studio studies
The visuals were designed to allow for interpretation, engaging with the music without directly explaining it.
The drafts stemmed from the idea of reducing the scope and creating compositions that also pointed towards the band's next steps.
In music production, according to Roberto Kramer:
“The songs made a big impression on me. It was important to have the band's openness in the process. There's a pure brotherhood between them that's hard to witness—and there was a possibility of sonic maturity for the songs that, with the partnership, we were able to achieve.”
In the mini-documentary that will soon be released by Toco, Guilherme (vocals and bass) discusses how the process with Toco made him see new possibilities for music and for future creations by the band.
Roberto adds that this evolution must happen — and that, without these changes, being a part of it wouldn't make sense.
