BRAINWORMS I is the first album from this group/project fully idealized by Rafael Bittencourt who has a discography of over 16 titles, gold records (in Brazil and Japan), over one million records sold and wrote some of the modern melodic-metal hymns such as ANGELS CRY, TIME, STAND AWAY, Z.I.T.O., MAKE BELIEVE, METAL ICARUS, REBIRTH, ACID RAIN, THE SHADOW HUNTER, THE VOICE COMMANDING YOU among many other songs that for years inspire an assorted audience and motivate many hopeful musicians to improve themselves on their instruments.
Brainworms is a term created by Oliver Sacks, a famous American Neuron-scientist, to name certain types of melodies that eventually “stick” into our memory and we feel hard to get it off. Curiosly, Rafael had the melodies for the songs trapped in his mind right when he was reading Oliver Sacks's book “Musicophilia: Tales of Music and the Brain”. Inspired by this concept, he wrote the 11 songs of the album.
Accurate musicianship, talent, originality, a pioneer instinct, technique and feeling are just a few of the adjectives used to qualify this musician, owner of an unique sensibility, known as one of the most important of his style. And those are the same qualities found in the upcoming CD BRAINWORMS I from his recently born group: the BITTENCOURT PROJECT
The release of BRAINWORMS I is expected for October 2008, same month as ANGRA's 17th anniversary. This album comes as a gift for the fans that have been supporting this musician's career all over the world.
The BITTENCOURT PROJECT is been released simultaneously in Japan (JVC VICTOR) and Brazil (VOICE MUSIC). A tour might happen in Japan early 2009. And it is planned to be released in USA and Europe on late 2008.

Santa Teresa
Bittencourt Project Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Deep where the forest sounds
Take you away
Oh! In the woods where the countryside
Reaches for hidden skies
Escaping away
Of Santa Teresa
Breathing the air and the blues skies of a sunny day
Blow, so strong,
the winds from the mountains high
Rest at the riverside
Fading away
Go up high to a place where the waterfalls
Slide down the rock-cliff walls
Splashing away
Climbing the hills and the mountains
Of Santa Teresa
Feeling the breeze and the blue skies of a sunny day
Climbing the hills and the mountains
Of Santa Teresa
Under the thunder-blue skies of a sunny day
All my innocence was lost along the way
Another day is over
Take me to this place I always will remember
Throw all my ashes on that land
The lyrics to Bittencourt Project's song "Santa Teresa" describe a journey to a remote and untouched wilderness, where the singer can escape the trappings of modern society and connect with the natural world. The first verse invites the listener to join the singer "On to the virgin ground / Deep where the forest sounds / Take you away," setting the stage for a journey into the depths of nature. The second verse describes the landscape of Santa Teresa, where "the countryside / Reaches for hidden skies," and the singer can climb hills and mountains and breathe the fresh air and blue skies of a sunny day. The chorus repeats the refrain, emphasizing the sensation of climbing and exploring: "Climbing the hills and the mountains / Of Santa Teresa."
The lyrics also evoke a sense of transience and impermanence, as the singer acknowledges that "All my innocence was lost along the way / Another day is over" and calls for their ashes to be scattered in this special place that they will always remember. The song's overall tone is wistful and nostalgic, suggesting that this journey to Santa Teresa represents a chance to escape the pressures of daily life and find a deeper connection with the natural world.
