Album Notes & Community Reviews

The debut full-length from the Paris-based producer stands as a crucial expansion of the Afro-Portuguese dance sounds pioneered by Lisbon's Pr铆ncipe label. The tracking melds the frenetic polyrhythms of kuduro and tarraxinha with deeply melodic, atmospheric synthesizer lines and vocal chop samples. The album paints a lush, vibrant picture of contemporary diasporic club music.
