Dear friends, we are so proud to present our beloved Niño Amarillo and this epic offering to us all!
It’s hard to put into words just how special this Mexican producer and DJ is both as a gifted creator and a truly cherished friend, in a country overflowing with talent.

We’ve known him since his very first works, and not only do we love each one, but we’ve always found his music to be deeply original and full of soul.
(And yes, we have to say it: Kevin is also a motorbike champion in Mexico and we think that’s absolutely amazing)

Drawing inspiration from ancient Mayan cultures and their sounds, Niño Amarillo delivers a powerful, unique creation, a track we love deeply and are thrilled to now share with the world.

Thank you for this epic one dear Kevin :)

Regarding the edit of José Afonso's song "vejam bem" (meaning "take a good look") and it's release on this date, 25th of April, it represents a most significant event. Portugal has been under dictatorship for more than 40 years, up until 1974. During that period, José Afonso's music became forbidden due to it's revolutionary and inspiring nature. This artist was so gifted and had such influence, through his being, art and thinking, that was considered a constant threat to the state. One of the most iconic stories in Portuguese culture, comes from the fact that the Revolution was triggered trough one of his songs, "Grândola Vila Morena", played trough the radio! 
After taking over the radio stations, the revolutionaries played this song to make it possible for others to know what it had began. It was the end of big period of violence, social and cultural degradation and censorship in Portugal, and without any casualties or shots fired. The people's revolution, made with art and peace. Since then, the Portuguese have done an epic effort to become a strong and beautiful country, with Freedom and Love to offer to those who visit us.

The World needs Revolution. Otherwise, there won't be a planet for future generations. It is our time now. With our Music and Love.

Zeca Afonso - Vejam Bem (Nyvs Edit)

We are delighed to present you a most precious gem. Nicolas Jaar, the Fado singer Carminho, edited by the unique Andara. This could only be epic!

There are no doubts that Nicolas Jaar is a legend, that Andara is gold, but regarding Carminho, whom most of you probably do not know, she is one of the most amazing Fado singers alive, and my very favorite female singer for many years . It's hard to put in words the magic of her voice, the soul and perfection of her singing, and most of all, the heritage of Portugal and Humanity that Fado music represents. We are delighted for having such piece of art and sharing it with the Downtempo Community.

Thank you beloved Andara, you never stop bringing light, art and Love to our lives on a daily basis and we could not imagine life or Octo without you!

Octo Records is preparing many surprises for the rest of this year! And for the next one... Well, that is gonna be wild!

Nicolas Jaar & Carminho - Fado Das Horas (Andara's Edit)

We are so happy and proud to offer another precious piece of our Portuguese culture, edited in Downtempo by our dear Nyvs.

António Variações was a Portuguese singer and songwriter who rose to prominence in the 80s with his unique, eclectic and absolutely amazing musical style!
Known for his flamboyant stage presence, wearing bold and colorful outfits with his distinctive hairstyles, Variações's music was a fusion genres, from rock, pop, folk, and his magic and influence continues to these days, making him one of the most beloved figures in Portugal's cultural history!
Fun fact is that before he became a musician, he was a famous barber in Lisbon!

Enjoy this epic work by our Resident Artist and Mastering Engineer Nyvs, a beautiful and unique addition to our Downtempo Culture, crafted with exquisite quality.

Ever since we discovered this edit by Frolov, it became a kind of beautiful madness — playing almost on loop, morning after morning.
Every now and then, we come across a track that truly touches the soul, lifting our vibration higher every time we hear it. These are the creations we come to rely on to make us smile, to dream, to celebrate, and to carry us through life’s many moments.

This unique piece — an edit of a traditional song from Thailand — gets the highest praise we can give: absolutely epic.
We’re grateful to share it with all of you, and deeply thankful to Frolov, a Ukrainian producer and DJ whose talent and professionalism we admire.

May all have an epic rest of Summer, with music and joy.

Ir e Vir (Birdzzie Edit) marks the debut release of Postas de Pescada, a label dedicated to reimagining Portuguese folk through electronic reinterpretation.

Each release is curated by Mike Stellar, our head honcho, crate digger, and sonic archaeologist — digging through dust and poetry to unearth the songs that still pulse today.

The original track “Ir e Vir” was recorded by Grupo de Acção Cultural (G.A.C.) in the years following the 1974 Portuguese Revolution. Formed in the wake of the dictatorship's fall, G.A.C. was a collective of musicians, poets, and activists who gave voice to the hopes and struggles of a changing Portugal, blending traditional melodies with political urgency.

At the heart of “Ir e Vir” lies a stark portrayal of the life of Portuguese fishermen: waking before dawn, braving the sea, and returning with little more than exhaustion. The lyrics speak of labour without dignity, of bodies spent for profits that never reach them. In this edit, those words echo differently but no less urgently. 

Today, it’s often artists who navigate a similarly extractive system: streaming economies, unpaid gigs, exposure in place of income. Ir e Vir becomes not just a chronicle of past injustices, but a mirror for the present: a reminder that the rhythms of exploitation shift form, but rarely fade.

In this edit, Birdzzie, a portuguese producer known for ambient depth and hypnotic downtempo rhythms. slows the track to a reflective pace, bringing its message into a spacious, electronic landscape. This isn’t just an edit; it’s a respectful act of sampling tradition and transforming it for new ears and contexts.
