‘Saudade’ is a soulful piece centered around lost love. The direct translation of the title from Portuguese is ‘a sad feeling of longing or nostalgia for someone or something that is absent’. To complement this, Ronehi embraced a minimalist approach to the production, employing soft emotional guitars with an afro-drum pattern that creates the sensual and romantic backdrop for the track. As an artist dedicated to authentic expression, AYLØ’s lyrics force us to reminisce on lost loves and embrace the power of feeling. The track evokes strong feelings of nostalgia, perhaps even tricking you to text your long-forgotten ex.
