Luiz crafted Nascente in Rio de Janeiro, in the cityai??i??s largest musical school. It took 5 months to prepare and record with the producer Yuri Villar in 2013.Ai??The collection consists of songs he has worked on with his sextet, which he describes as ai???a quick recording processai??i??. Luis adds he would like to launch the album in Europe as well as London. The predominantly instrumental album brings together a variety of influences, from the Northeast of Rio to rhythmic MPB roots with a touch of sophisticated jazz. The blue toned cover, is reminiscent of water and fountains. It was designer Fernanda Queirozai??i??s idea to marry the colour and album name together. Luiz says ai???the album came to be called Nascente because it is his first disk, it was really like being born again, I had grow and develop and now Iai??i??ve been born. Blue is my favourite colour and besides, it reminds us of the fluidity of water, which brings life and music is lifeai??i??. However, the albums interior is red, representing blood, another nod towards birth.
