Built this with 90s - 20s mixtape sound we use to make and share.

Found An Old Tape

Brimstone On Fire

A funky breaks track enriched with some 90s disco elements. At the time of writing, "You Recall Me - Radio Edit" reached Submithub's Hot or Not top 25, Fresh on the Net's listening post for batch 489 and received airplay by KaneFM 103.7 and Amazing Radio.

You Recall Me - Radio Edit

A "New, but Old-School" breakbeat rap song. It sounds familiar, but it has some twists borrowed from another close genre.

Declined For Sharing (Hot Or Not Demo)

Phoenix

Another beat in my secret stash, need more fine tuning as some filters produce much background noise, but still, it has a certain, unique vibe.

Always In Parallel With The Past

Never brought Drill, Grime and Dubstep together in a single beat before, it was about time to mix a track like this.

Jill, is this Drill? (MC Razor, prod. PortableDjs)

After "Jill, is this Drill?" feat. MC Razor (which is doing well on Amazing Radio), I wanted to keep exploring different sounds injected into modern hip hop style/forks. "I'll Think of you" sports Scorzayzee's amazing rap and lyrics on a grime-ish track loaded with very powerful garage baselines and break beats elements.

I'll Think Of You (Scorzayzee, Prod. PortableDJs)

A drill track running at  140 bpm, sporting Mr. Montigue's rap. The entire mix is "twisted a bit" though, thanks to modern latin guitars and Emika's kaleidoscopic voice.

Southern Drill (Mr. Montigue, Emika)

A 45 bpm, slow and tripping, grime-ish track featuring Emika and Mr. Montigue.

This Beautiful Feeling (Emika, Mr. Montigue)

[ITA] Una traccia boombap introspettiva dalle sonorità caleidoscopiche, feat. Mr Giò, Hiovani e Kat Abel.

[Free ITA Rap] Il Treno (Mr Giò, Hiovani, Kat Abel)

G. Meloni, aka PortableDJs (formerly known as Coffeetrim/FuriousStereo) is a producer and beatmaker of classic and modern urban electronic music.

He was born in 1982 in the southern part of Sardinia, one of the largest islands in Italy and the Mediterranean Sea. His parents' divorce at an early age and the limited availability of jobs on the island prompted him to study art and travel often.

Music was always present when he was growing up thanks to his older sister, who was a big fan of dance music and 90s pop. Music TV programmes, charts and the large amount of cassette tapes available in the house have somehow influenced his musical tastes since childhood.

It was only during high school that he began to take an active interest in music: it was between 1996 and the early 2000s that hip hop first reached its peak in Italy, with its local and national scene. 

Between late '99 and early 2000, having somehow inherited a second-hand PC, he started to produce some electronic music mixtapes on cassette and later on CD. Later, he expanded his equipment with Korg and Roland hardware; in 2005, he uploaded his first track to ccMixter under the name CoffeeTrim.

Between 2005 and 2011, he released numerous tracks and remixes, such as "Norine session (BeBrave club mix)", "Open your eyes (Long Island Remix)", "Rainha do Sol (F-Stereo 2007 remix)", "Where the love did go (Trim & Pun Magic Lamp Mix)" and "NASA (Trim & Pun Back 2 NY Remix)" among others.

In 2023, thanks to the maturity he gained from travelling, although the scene around him had changed a lot and a recent loss in the family, he decided to release new music with a new approach and under the name PortableDJs: this name had originally been intended for the duo project with S. Baccoli (Pun), who was however now out of the music scene.

PortableDJs' sound now, unlike in the past, is more focused on European urban sounds, such as Grime and UK Drill. His comeback single, 'You Recall Me' released in mid-2023, has generated hundreds of listens and received acclaim from communities and underground radio stations. 

Between 2023 and 2024, he released numerous single tracks, such as 'Southern Drill', 'Vibin' and 'Estate Bars Pt.1' to name a few, scoring thousands of listens worldwide on Spotify.
