Rocky Marsiano, a producer and DJ from Lisbon now residing in Amsterdam, compiled a batch of African vinyl with the help of Rui Miguel Abreu. The collection, from Cape Verde, Angola, Mozambique and São Tomé, was full of potential, and when re-mixed and edited with the expertise of Rocky's MPC, it created a unique exploration of African sounds. Answering questions of what happens when b-boys dance to semba, this project serves as a tribute to the traditional music of the old streets of Lisbon and a pathway into the past and future.
