Saturday night’s winds were not felt by those who attended Largo Amor de Perdição, in Porto, as they were pushed by the strings of the MIMO Festival.
Ray Lima, a musician from Congo, gathered thousands of people to the sounds of wind, piano and musical instruments in a dance that brought together many foreigners and different cultures. Despite the initially shy and unreactive audience, the artist struggled to reach every viewer, repeatedly asking for “more noise”.
The party ended, and soon the music returned to what could be called the main stage. It was DJ MAM’s turn to occupy the space between the artists, and while waiting for Branko, he didn’t give anyone any rest. And even those who were eating could not resist.
I felt the heat the moment Branko took the podium. Too late, too excited and “a little nervous,” the artist said he missed working on Invicta and wasn’t shy about showing it.
Despite a rather stagnant and monotonous start, with constant side conversations, the DJ struck everyone who listened to him, turning Largo Amor de Perdição into an authentic dance floor.
But all that happiness that was hovering over the city was shattered when the police cut the sound on the DJ, in order to end the party. The audience’s discontent was manifested in loud whistles and shouts of “just one more” and Branko, disappointed, could not do anything, just tried to cure him and thank him.
Despite trying to play for the last time, Branko had no luck and had to leave the stage.
