Gustavo to release new collaboration on AromaMusic, including Twofold & Thomm Remix
Buggy Freaks is a collaboration between prolific Lisbon-based DJ and producer Gustavo Rodrigues and Berlin-based, Aromamusic label boss DJ Aroma. They played quite a number of gigs together in both cities and the result is the project under the name of “Buggy Freaks”. Lots of laughs and good times, as the name implies. The duo will release an E.P called “DK/NR” which is marketing lingo for “Don`t know / no reply”. The track is a mixture of both their backgrounds, Berlin and Lisbon.
Twofold, the latest addition to Madame Management’s roster, and his longtime collaborator Thomm are two youngsters from Lisbon who were constantly listening to the progress when the track was produced. They asked if they could do a remix and here is the charming and kicking result.
Release details are as follows:
Buggy Freaks aka. Gustavo Rodrigues and DJ Aroma
DK/NR incl. a remix by Twofold and Thomm
Release date: 21.11.2009
Gustavo hits Berlin in November
Gustavo Rodrigues, one half of Portugal’s hippest dj duo Stereo Addiction, will be making his second trip this year to Berlin. On the 14th of November, one of the city’s coolest record labels Aromamusic will be celebrating it’s 5th anniversary. Gustavo will be playing alongside label boss DJ Aroma, Hakan Libdo, Gebrueder Teichmann, Deph, Wes Rock, Coco Killah Chemistry, and Thorsten Skoerat. The venue chosen to host the evening is one of Berlin’s most emblematic clubs, Ritterbutzke. This notorious nightspot has always been synonymous with Berlin’s burgeoning minimal techno music scene but was closed down for two years because of it’s illegal status, now, with it’s doors open once more, it is the perfect stage for Aromamusic’s freshest young talent. The evening will run from midnight to mid-day, with two rooms full of great music it promises to be a night to remember.
Gustavo Rodrigues & Fabricio Medeiros release “Pacote”
Gustavo of Stereo Addiction has teamed up with brazilian dj and producer Fabricio Medeiros to bring you a slamming new track. “Pacote” is a peaktime dancefloor destroyer that fuses a pounding techno beat to a stomping bassline and slinky minimal-style percussion. This collaboration has just been released on the Vienna-based Future Lovers record label and is available on Beatport. To purchase the E.P click here.

Next a young artist whose fans include the legendary Brian Eno, Herbie Hancock and Coldplay (whose latest record, “Viva La Vida”, he helped produce) - the young Jon Hopkins will be bringing his unique electronica stylings and awesome live act to Lisbon’s first “Baile”. Tim Exile, Warp Records latest goldenboy, will showcase his glitchy take on dance music in a live act that will surely add an excentric flavour to the proceedings.

No Sábado dia 21 de Novembro Lisboa recebe, da capital inglesa, um evento que tem feito furor na noite londrina: “O Baile“, projecto que nasceu pela mão de Mariana Duarte Silva e Joana Seguro. As duas amigas tinham como ideia um showcase mensal para os novos talentos mais interessantes do underground português em Londres. Naturalmente, sendo Londres das cidades mais multiculturais do planeta, o conceito evoluiu para incluir também artistas internacionais. “O Baile” já teve como convidados um vasto leque de jovens talentos incluíndo Octa Push (que foram convidados, logo de seguida a actuar no Fabric e no Glade Festival), Bart Cruz, Gustavo Rodrigues, Bailarico Sofisticado, Twofold, Quayola, entre outros.
Em Novembro, e coincidindo com o aniversário da Madame, “O Baile” muda-se para terras lusas com um line up de luxo. Em primeiro lugar está Micachu & The Shapes, um conjunto inglês que tem feito as delícias da crítica nacional e internacional , o jornal “O Público” referiu-se a este projecto como sendo “autores de um dos discos do ano” e o “presente da pop”.
De seguida um artista que conta como fãs o lendário Brian Eno, Herbie Hancock e os Coldplay (a quem inclusivamente ajudou a produzir o seu último disco “Viva La Vida”) - o jovem Jon Hopkins vai trazer ao primeiro “Baile” lisboeta a sua fusão única de electrónica e texturas mais tradicionais em Live act.
Tim Exile é o novo coqueluche da notória Warp Records, as suas sonoridades ecléticas e fascinantes, também em Live Act, vão trazer um toque de excentricidade à noite.
Juntando-se a este cartaz extraordinário, “O Baile” ainda vai contar com DJ sets do visual artist italiano Quayola, e das duplas portuguesas do momento Stereo Addiction e Heartbreakerz que vão partilhar a cabine com Twofold, a cara do novo sangue electrónico em Portugal.
