Tracks

For the next release on CIGA239 we seized Drena Gang’s cherished trap hit Boylife and threw in a remix by Assafrão which feels like the next practical step. Boylife hits you hard but does it kindly. It is a song about you and me; a tale of angst overcome by sheer indifference to anyone’s bullshit. In Ravelife Assafrão ramps it up to 160bpm and turns the song into a rave track for your local festa louca. Tuned with your essential breaks it delivers the same message with even less excuses.

Assafrão - Vou-te fintar sidestep (feat. BHIKHA)

Last year I had the opportunity to explore the platform CSound to make music. 

Developed in 1985 it presents a completely different approach to making music than most DAWs. As a computer programming language you don’t work with beats or bars, you work with lines of code. 

With a tradition as tool for composing electro-acoustic pieces, this is the result of my inspiration

Alien Soundscape

Pau No Seu Techno [FREE DOWNLOAD]

Our very own Assafrão of Fuinki fame comes through with two emotional cuts, heavy on the broken rhythms and showing an incredible clarity and purpose as a young producer. Dreamy pads coexist with rave-evoking melodies, reminding us of all the shades and forms, physical and mental, that the rave experience represents for a new and struggling generation in Portugal and everywhere.

Assafrão - Rave Come Down (preview)

I made this track for the compilation Estado de Emergência, I wanted to make a song that I would want to play whenever we get the chance to go out and party. It showcases some of my influences like techno and jungle, let's rave again 🔥

A compilation of artists from the Portuguese scene made during quarantine, in times of fear holding onto what previously made normality hopeful.
From Ambient to IDM and Techno, a taster of what is being made in Portugal in these times.

Music doesn't make us better people, but it can be fucking nice to make and listen to. Hope to give hope in the smallest way possible

Assafrão - ACAB

Celebrating the start of the new year with the release of the second volume of Mind Disorder. A compilation that, like its precedent, brings together a series of relevant artists in the national electronic music scene, and stresses the authenticity and honesty of the work of each of them.

Mind Disorder: vol. II takes us back to the dancefloor ambient in what is an ambitious set of tracks. Distigguishing itself by the multiplicity and complexity of languages, this record shows well the richness of electronic music being produced today in our territory. This compilation actually celebrates not just the turn of the year - and what a year it was! -, but also the strength that keeps alive the spirit of the musicians who continue an artistic project in difficult and uncertain times. We therefore want to celebrate, with renewed joy, the participation of each one of them.
