Impact: Violet

Violet | Boiler Room x Eristoff 'Into The Dark' | Porto

Lisbon is enjoy plenty of time in the spotlight at the moment, not least thanks to artists like Violet, who is busy on many different fronts at once. As a lone force she producers anything from big techno breakbeats to rave tinged acid house. Next to that she’s also co-founded Radio Quântica, which is an essential platform for local underground artists and activists. She also performs as part of an all female rap group and covers classic tunes made solely by woman. Besides that, she even found time to start her own new label, Naive, this year. 

It should come as no surprise that such an active mind packs a lot into her 75 minute mix. Tripped out cosmic breakbeats kick things off before the drums grow more distorted and synths begin to howl as you’re dumped onto a dance floor at 3am. A subtle rave euphoria washes over the mid section before dusty breakbeats and slippery electro see things out. Despite the driving nature of the underlying drums, this is a mix that exudes warmth, soul and romance.

Violet with BLEID - 12 July 2019

Lisbon’s Inés Coutinho aka Violet is one of the main faces of Lisbon’s blossoming underground music scene, co-running a queer event series called mina and local internet radio station Rádio Quântica. After starting out as a DJ in shops, pubs and hotels — a time she values greatly —, she briefly lived in London for a while, and around the time she returned to Lisbon her career took off.

Not in the slightest due to her impeccable label Naive, which has been turning heads for its boundless approach and string of strong releases by often upcoming and mostly female artists like Octo Octa, Almaty, Ilana Bryne and Eris Drew, and on which she also released her own ‘Togetherness’ EP. Her mixing approach is a captivating concoction of breakbeat, bass, techno and basically everything else — not eschewing an occasional Cardi B or RnB from the 00’s weaved into her sets.

This Selectors Podcast reflects her engagement with her local scene and its upcoming artists: “This mix is like being surrounded by friends and inspirations from my local scene. Most of its tracks are quite recent and made by young artists whose relentlessly imaginative output has been capturing my imagination”, like BLEID, Stasya and Odete, as well as more established artists from her scene like Photonz and Príncipe’s Marfox. The result is a 70-minute rollercoaster of drums, rhythms and surprises, full of different sounds and influences. According to Coutinho herself, that’s “what [she] feels makes it special, rather than having a specific geographically-pinnable sound.”

Violet b2b Photonz - 22 November 2019

This month Carhartt WIP Radio brings you Violet – a DJ, producer and record label owner from Lisbon, Portugal. Since 2010 she has released music that flirts with techno, house, breakbeat and hip hop on labels like One Eyed Jacks and Paraíso from Portugal, Love On The Rocks from Berlin, her own label naïve, and its subdivision naivety. 

Last year she dropped “Bed Of Roses,” her first solo album, on the San Francisco-based imprint Dark Entries, highlighting her talent for producing an album with a story arc in which introspective synth spheres and cinematic ambient sounds jack with techno, hip hop, dancehall, electro, R&B, dubstep and absorbing pop particles. As well as releasing music, she is also a globe-touring DJ who is known for sets that bring techno into new break-laden territories.

For Carhartt WIP Radio Violet prepared a show comprised of her own music in a way that, in her words, “represents her the most.” As always, we also sat down with this month’s host to discuss musical influences – from The Neptunes to Bon Jovi – her career to date, and what it means to make music in the midst of a pandemic.
