Papangu presents "Sol Ruir": an 8-bit epilogue to Lampião Rei

Sol Ruir is Papangu's new 7-inch record—a sonic journey that reimagines three essential tracks from the acclaimed album Lampião Rei, now wrapped in the nostalgic and immersive soundscape of retro video game music. This exclusive EP features 8-bit versions of “Sol Raiar,” “Ruínas I,” and “Ruínas II-IV,” retelling a musical narrative of the eternal struggle between light and darkness.

A Record Store Day 2025 exclusive, Sol Ruir honors the vibrant culture of independent record shops. Mastered by Arthur Joly, a renowned specialist in analog audio, this 7-inch is an extremely limited edition, with only 150 copies available.

On Side A, Sol Raiar evokes the lightness and promise of dawn, while Ruínas I marks the twilight and the encroaching shadows. Side B delves deeper into the darkness of night with Ruínas II, III, and IV, crafting an intense and immersive sonic landscape.

Sol Ruir is more than just a 7-inch record; it’s an essential epilogue for fans of the Lampião Rei universe and a glimpse into Papangu’s next creative chapter. Get ready for a unique musical experience where past and future collide in a pixelated aura of nostalgia.
