It will be released on CD in February of 2011. Cuadrado has three other CDs as a leader: Puzzles (Brooklyn Jazz Underground Records, 2008), Visual (Fresh Sound New Talent, 2004) and Metro (FSNT, 2001), which include original compositions and have received enthusiastic reactions from critics and fans alike.

Hello, Alexis. I was number 150 and thanks to my friend Paulo Barbosa, I knew this pledge and contributed with $20. Therefore, I'm looking forward to receiving a copy of "Noneto Ibérico". As we are at Christmas, could you sign it for me please, Alexis? I know if I donated $30 I would receive an autographed copy, but it's Christmas time, a season of sharing and generosity among men... I know you're generous and I remember you at Calheta, Madeira performing in Centro das Artes "Casa das Mudas" in October 2008... What a great concert! Merry Christmas and a happy new year to you and the musicians that made "Noneto Ibérico"!
Congratulations, your project seems fascinating, glad that you are now able to complete it

Congratulations Alexis. You're project has inspired my own journey on the bass. Thanks you for your passion and vision.
Yaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!
Hi Alexis!
You're doing great and it's also great to see how kickstarter works. Love to Ave and the boys-
Best of luck on reaching your goal!
Hey Alexis. Man, you're so close! I just did my small part and I hope you're able to pull it off. I watched the video and thought it was great ... and the music is fantastic. I tried a Kickstarter project myself a while back and it didn't happen. It's such a great platform and concept. If everyone who likes the music just kicked it a little bit it would be easy. Good luck man. Fingers crossed!
Moltissima sort Alexis!! felic de contribuir i amb moltes ganes d'escoltar tot el cd!
petons!!
Esther.
Yea man, keep going, all the best!
