EP Rinoceronte

Luzo Cairo’s EP, six tracks. I carried the full production chain: composition support, recording, mix, master, video, distribution, and the live stream. Released on Bandcamp and Spotify in 2025.

The funding came from Política Nacional Aldir Blanc / PAAR 2024 — the same Brazilian federal cultural grant that put it into motion during my last year in Lisbon. The grant’s structure matters: it covers the whole arc from composition to release, which is what makes a project like this possible without leaning on private capital.

This is the closest thing I have to a “producer” credit in my public work. It is also the cleanest example of a Palmas-based record: recorded locally, released locally, with a national grant behind it.
