Lisbon’s Blacksea Não Maya have returned to Príncipe after five years with a new EP,  ‘Máquina de Vénus’.

The trio, comprising brothers DJ Kolt and DJ Noronha and their friend DJ Perigoso, deliver eight thrilling tracks of percussive, genre-defying dance music, pushing batida sounds to new, experimental heights. It makes for a heady brew, with DJ Kolt injecting six of the EP’s cuts with dizzying percussion, warped sub-bass and dark, trance-inducing atmospheres.

Príncipe will release a new EP from DJ Firmeza, ‘Ardeu’.

The first track to be unveiled from the Angolan producer and MC's package is 'Intenso', a fittingly-titled stepping, uptempo, party-starting workout packed with percussion and police sirens. 

Firmeza's first for the Lisbon-based label since 2015's 'Alma Do Meu Pai', it also contains a further three tunes— 'AVAN', 'RRRRRR' and '25'— and is slated to land on 13th September.
