I am a dj and promotor from Lisbon since 1999, but I started mixing earlyear with the age of 14 at home with my uncle's turntables. A few years later I played in several bars and clubs at the legendary Bairro Alto in Lisbon, but it was in the area of Santos in Lisbon, in the club Fluid where I started to show my skills, known for being an irreverent dj but at the some time worried about intruducing new sounds and grooves to my audience.
In 2005 I opened a venue with my mate José Canas, it was called Clube Mercado, a venue in Lisbon that received great national and international shows! In Clube Mercado I was the resident dj and promotor of several events that was a mark in Lisbon’s night life: Dj Premier, Dj A-Trak, Nicola Conte, Bonde Do Role, Buraka Som Sistema, Boozoo Bajou, Kid Loco, Idjut Boys, Jahcoozi, Putsch’79, among many others. Clube Mercado was, as well, a venue open for all kinds of music and promotors.
After Clube Mercado was closed, I opened Mini-Mercado in Santos. I usually play there on Saturdays being this my main dj residence.
In all this years I already played all over Portugal... Lisboa (Fluid, Frágil, Estado Liquido, Clube da Esquina, Purex, Lounge, Left, Op Art, Lux), Porto (Plano B, Gare Club, Trintaeum, Bazaar, Industria), Bragança, Braga, Chaves, Aveiro, Viseu, Coimbra, Castelo Branco, Figueira da Foz, Caldas da Rainha, Rio Maior, Leiria, Evora, Sto.Andre, Zambujeira do Mar, Albufeira, Madeira and Açores... I can say that I've seen the most beautifull places in Portugal.
I already played as well in UK, Bristol at Native with Tayo, Oxford at The Cellar with Hannah Holland and Les Petits Pilous, Portsmouth at Sumo. and in London at Cargo with Deekline and Beni G, at Bar Rumba with Ragga Twins and at Catch with Zombie Disco Squad. Also in Paris at Social Club with The Booty Call Crew, in Vienna with Joyce Muniz, in Nuremberg, in Munich, in Rosenheim, in Marseille, in Catania, in Milan at Wonka, etc. etc....
My style is difficult to describe because I play everything that bounces the dancefloor... it can be hip-hop, brokenbeat, house, electro or rock... anyway, free style where the sounds of ghettos from all over the world are evident, the Baile Funk from Rio de Janeiro, the Bmore Club from US, the Kuduro of Luanda and Lisboa, the Breakbeat and Dubstep from London, etc.! A-Trak, Dj Ayres, Diplo, Fake Blood, Switch, Crookers, Buraka Som Sistema, Sinden, Herve or Jack Beats are my favourite producers at the moment. I'm fan of Portugal home made and it’s usual for me to promote my favourites in my shows. I currently playing with Serato Live Scratch, trying to keep it as most old school as possible, since I allways played vynil, this is my favourite format...

feat. BLACKSUGU Schwarz Weiß White Fang & the Aerobica Gang
Schwarz Weiß, enigmático dandy do hip-hop electrónico e do big beat, sofreu um acidente de ski, sendo substituído pelo seu colega de curso White Fang. WF, nascido nas encostas de Mount Logan, mudou-se para Toronto onde fundou o ginásio Gold Mine e desenvolveu a sua revolucionária dieta à base de panquecas e xarope de ácer. Provindo de um clima ártico, utiliza técnicas que resultam num output elevado de calor, retendo o máximo de líquidos.
Os Blacksugu são BlackBambi (Miguel Bonneville) e DJ Sugu (Susana Guardado), consagrados mestres aeróbicos das explosivas festas Blacksugu e das famigeradas Corvak Nights, no ginásio Europa, em Lisboa. De microfone em punho, o electrizante Miguel Bonneville vai fazer-nos saltar até à exaustão, enquanto a glamorosa DJ Sugu nos mostra a raça feminina com sonoridades electrizantes desde os 80's e 90's até à actualidade. Prometem técnicas novas performativas de improvisação, Go-Go Dancing e muita, muita loucura.
