Away from the fray of music manufactured for mainstream appeal, the music project, Testaverde, led by singer-songwriter Pedro Rafa and producer Ale Siqueira, always follows a mythical path to invite the listener to reflect on life. Ultimately, the soundscapes from Testaverde are the embodiments of our true selves.
The standout single, Livre, which was brought to life with an army of authentic artists, is a far cry from the archetypal indie tonal palette with the ethereally jazzy textures, funk-licked rhythms, and astral layers of psychedelic soul. Livre is definitively a single you will get lost within before you find yourself rejuvenated by artful experimentalism. Great minds don’t think alike; they’re all outside the box like the effortless originators in this accessible Avant Garde orchestration.
Add Livre to your Spotify playlists, or immerse yourself in the official music video on YouTube.
