My musical modus operandi is less thinking, more feeling.
QUERIDO is an artist, composer, and sound designer who captures the warm, glowing essence of a soft sunset on your face as you’re cruising — undisturbed, in a Ferrari, of course — down a countryside road, with the retro synth-pop soundscapes that he creates.
Less thinking and more feeling are his musical modus operandi, his compositions coaxing you to indulge in neon-lit nostalgia — audial time-travel, really.
QUERIDO’s 2019 debut, “For Tonight” (featuring Amy May Roux), raked in hundreds of thousands of streams, making a comfortable home for itself on over 2500 playlists, including Spotify’s editorial “Comeback Pop” playlist, sitting pretty between global retro-pop sensations Dua Lipa, The Weekend, and Chromatics, amongst others.
After a two-year-long hiatus, QUERIDO makes his comeback with a disco fantasy-fuelled banger, “Gemini” (featuring synth-pop songstress Sulene), which attaches itself to the promise of an upcoming, 5-track EP that further explores his retro synth stylings.
