A collage inspired by walking down every morning to Santa Apolónia, past the abandoned warehouses where those before us once danced. Industrial and working spaces reconfigured through rave and resistance. The mix has errors, flaws, improvisations and crashes. There are headphone cues bleeding into the master more than once. I kept it all.

This one is dedicated to my father and the Alcântara compilations he used to play at home when I couldn’t even walk yet. And to all those who opened the way, among ruins and unfinished futures.

Thanks: Photonz.

XABREGAS STATE OF MIND

A few weeks ago I played on a Wednesday at Purex. I had promised a light midweek set of house and dub. But then Dana showed up and the promise collapsed. The first hours were innocent, the last two unraveled into chaos. Some people fled, others rushed in. There were screams and bodies thrown against the walls of Purex. It was intense. This cut is the last hour of that set.

Thanks: António Almada Guerra, Joana Reinhardt, Joana Girão, Forest.

DANA MADE ME DO IT | Purex - 20/08/25 [Closing]

I’ve been sick in bed as the largest flotilla yet sails to Gaza, carrying hope and solidarity.

All these sounds started colliding in my head. Waves against the boats, Palestine sunbirds singing, the river and the sea and the bottom of the ocean, people chanting, children playing, a human heart beating, low-quality Telegram livestreams, late night voice messages, my own breath, layers and layers of synths and so much more: resistance.

This is for Khalil.

Endless thanks to Barker and SunTruth.

FLOTILLA [Paradise Engineering Reworked]

With performances by Mary Poppers, Vini Ga’Room, A.M. Dickless, Tandy 3000 (in spectral form) and Quinn.

A night of drag, dance, and politics in a single space - with my frequent mistakes, bodies in mutation, collective work, survival and joy.

Thanks: João Caldas, Fred Botta, Giuliane Maciel.
