Enorme !!!! Pour ma block party a montreuîl 93 👌✊🏽😎😘

Lua Preta (@luapreta) is an Angolan/Polish duo that has taken the global bass scene by storm in the past few years. Since the end of 2017 they managed to put out a series of successful releases, play a great deal of well-received shows at festivals and clubs all over Europe (plus two gigs in New York), shoot a bunch of music videos (one of them being filmed in Lisbon) and catch attention of @brankoofficial himself who remixed their song for his renowned 'Enchufada Na Zona' compilation. In 2020 they went on to prepare a debut album called 'Diaspora' - a seven tracks collection showcasing their characteristic catchy Afro sound which included 'Baile Lotus' (played by Diplo in his BBC Radio 1 show), 'Vim Para Vencer' (collaboration with South African rapper Robin Thirdfloor) and 'Drena' (featured in an official Spotify playlist by Adidas).

Now five of the songs from the last year's release come back with new versions prepared by producers from five different countries. United States' @tonyquattro highlights Ms. Gia's vocals from 'Drena' and freshens up the beat by adding guitar riffs and swirling flutes. @djraff, one of the most important electronic music artists from Chile, skilfully slows down 'Baile Lotus' and in an unexpected turn of events pairs it with cumbia turning the track into a Latin-flavoured beauty. Further into the release, Africa's star producer @gafacci adds his signature style to the instrumental side of 'Ao Som Dos Homens' - but don't worry: Ghanaian's famous 'shut your mouth I beg eh' vocal hook is very much there.

'Diaspora Remixes' finishes off with two remixes by European artists. Firstly, original vocals take the centre stage again in the club-ready rework of 'Sente Batida' by respected Italian producer @lamentomusic. Last but not least, French drum master @ruffkaval provides a perfect closing track with his wonderfully crafted version of 'RTE' which has been enriched by additional thumping patterns and... birdsongs.

Things are gearing up at Lowup Records. We’re more than thrilled to present a joint release of Max Le Daron’s Monin’Guetin together with Akwaaba. Max has been working intensely this last couple of years on a series of Afro inspired tunes, collaborating with various vocalists. Monin’Guetin is a serious Afro banger featuring Joey Le Soldat, Burkina rapper on the rise & Gan Gah. 
The original will be out in a few on Akwaaba music alongside other gems. We at Lowup, will present the accompanying remix EP featuring remixes by Gafacci, KKingKong, Siete Catorce & Lorenzo BITW.

First up is Ghanaian producer Gafacci (the guy behind Jowaa) with a darker, threatening groove, also adding some percussive elements resulting in a fusion of Club aesthetics with a genuine afro feel. A Juju ceremony for the dancefloor. Next is portuguese producer on the rise Kking Kong (Enchufada). This guy is on fire, check his latest 20 or so productions. Here he delivers the goods once again. Warning: certified banger with a bewitching flute sound that will nest itself inside your head for days.
Siete Catorce a producer hailing from mexico deconstructs and reassembles this global club music twisting it into a far out hypnotizing Affair, one for the headz! Lorenzo Bitw has steadily pushed his way into the focus of many over the last two years. This one definitely has a more techno/trancey feel and a great build up resulting in a liberating climax!

A true Trans Continental release.

Most of the themes that Fela sang about in his music are sadly still relevant today. I grew up listening to his music, so I hope I didn't butcher this... :-)

Branko - Movimento [JLZ Remix]

Here's a new joint.... It's been a while since I dropped something on my own (not a collabo or a label release). So it's nice to get back to basics. 

I'm really keen on exploring a darker mood on my tracks. On this one, I'm visualising a dystopian future, the aftermath of climate change perhaps, a wasteland with few humans and items of consumption scattered around, rendered useless.

What about a whole project with this vibe? Your thoughts?

First teased with the release of bubbling lead single ‘Calores’ in January,   ‘Da Linha’ crowns a defining breakthrough three years for PEDRO that have seen him establish himself as one of Portugal’s most vibrant and exciting new-school producers. His debut EP ‘Damaia’ (2017) – named after the suburb of Lisbon he was born in – immediately signposted a bright, borderless and completely unique club sound, which has since been best emphasised by 2019 releases including the Buraka Som Sistema-sampling ‘Rapazes’ and a breathless collaboration with Nigerian MC, Magugu (‘Too Much’), both of which feature on the LP tracklist.

First inspired by his older brother, who would introduce PEDRO to the latest electronic music from all over Europe, PEDRO references DJ Rolando’s ‘Knights Of Jaguar’ as a memorable early touch point – a record he still credits with influencing the melodies he writes to this day. Living and growing up in Damaia, a neighbourhood of Amadora, the biggest and most diverse Lisbon suburb which counts almost 20% of migrant population, mostly from former Portuguese colonies such as Angola, Cape Verde or Brazil, exposing him to a whole patchwork of new sounds and genres like kuduro and kizomba from a very young age. 

In Portuguese, ‘Da Linha’ translates to mean ‘of the line’, an extended name-slash-title that’s been given to PEDRO over the years. ‘The line’ here refers to the Sintra line, a train line that connects Lisbon to Amadora and PEDRO’s neighbourhood of Damaia. The artwork builds on this idea by presenting a futuristic take on the aesthetics of public transportation signage, while also adopting the colours of the Amadora council flag — an open dedication to PEDRO’s hometown and all of its unique musical and cultural influences.

With such a rich and diverse musical upbringing, it is perhaps no wonder that ‘Da Linha’ is bursting with energy and colour across all 10 tracks, melding together the hyper-specific sounds, instruments and voices that have sound-tracked PEDRO’s life so far. From the marching, militant rhythm of ‘Stuck On You’ ft. standout Ghanaian MC, Bryte, to the silky, earworm melodies of closing track ‘'Para Ti’, you’d be hard pushed to find a debut record that captures the sound of a city so viscerally.
