We apologize for our long absence. It was a long summer, a few gigs and fertile year! Our families grown up in number and work... we call it happiness! But now we're back with another fabulous mix tape from the one and only Skatemaster Leroy... we already know his exceptional warm taste and wide variety of tones. This mate is like a sweet vineyard... so let's taste this exceptional selection! Tell us what you feel...

2010-08-13T10:55:00.005+01:00

Finally the deserved break has come. During the next tree weeks we will be surfing, drinking, sleeping, laughing, loving, babysitting, maybe djing, but certainly having a good time with our Havaianas on. See you soon and remember... No funk no fun.

GROOVE'S BACK / PART I

2010-08-04T00:19:00.004+01:00

So, if you wanna party on a magnificent place, with a magnificent sight and a magnificent trio of DJ's... just follow the sounds coming from Esposende.

Seeya there!

LET'S DANCE!

2010-07-12T10:11:00.007+01:00

WELCOME CAMILA

2010-05-21T20:55:00.007+01:00

Hello... Camila my first child was born this week and I'm still floating! During the preparation for the birth the doctors advised us to take some relaxing music for the moment. I couldn't resit so I have prepared a mix that is more a soundtrack of my life with Camila's mother, kind of our history music . I hope you enjoy it and yell with me welcome Camila. Love. Dj Caramelo

From South Africa to Portugal

2010-05-02T10:38:00.006+01:00

This time we publish with deepest pleasure an exceptional set digged out by our friend Chris Keys. From South Africa, Johannesburg, to the world... Chris keeps publishing significant contents on his superb blog Anothernightonearth

We are delighted and excited with these sounds... So listen carefully to this Arc of one.

Remember Maho

2010-03-22T18:56:00.005Z

Do you remember Maho?
Dj Caramelo sails, once again, into calm waters.
You just can´t go deeper than this. Press "play", seat back, close your eyes and fly away...

Flawless

2010-02-21T22:32:00.003Z

Back on mix tapes folks!

This time with an electric disco flavor based on the set that DJ Discreto played on our latest live act at Burburinho. We believe the result is some kind of a retro edgy selection for that imaginary disco party we secretly like to do... Enjoy as you like and, as always, feel free to comment.

Your perceptions mean a lot...

DJ Discreto

2010-01-16T21:05:00.009Z

Finally a new mixtape, directly from Dj Caramelo's living room.
Constant is the rain, has a deep Balearic flavor, so sit back, turn on the fireplace, close your eyes and remember the lost summer afternoons.

We wish you...

2009-12-29T04:51:00.004Z

Nevertheless we're back with another set inspired by the infinite joy of Brazilian spirits and all time timeless grooves.

We recommend you, as usual, to seat back and enjoy. Let your hands and feet do the rest...

Start seated. End it loud and dancing at your

Tanned Sounds

2009-09-17T17:42:00.012+01:00

Back from a revealing summer where smiles, grooves, parties and waves never missed our sand prints... Still with a nostalgic salty flavour of our lazy summer days i decided to "tan" a little bit longer with this set. As i once read, on a cover of a childhood record, this one is also for lovers, rockers and sinners (sorry, no ravers allowed - The Cult discography). Listen carefully at sunset with your girlfriend...

Enjoy and leave us your thoughts!

Dj Discreto

If it sucks, don't be shy... knock me down.

Ellectrica Deluxe: sounds with 220v, at least, and some electrified house/disco hits from the 80's, 90's and 00's. Enjoy!

New mix, new grooves!
