DJ Danifox will release a new album on Príncipe.
DJ Danifox, or Daniel Veiga, was born in Lisbon, Portugal but he moved to the UK in 2014, around the time that he began making his first beats. Today, he is touted as one of Príncipe’s rising names, acknowledged for his dancefloor cuts and playful vibes. After releasing his debut solo EP, Long Way Talk, on Los Angeles’ Point Records, he’s contributed “Dark Hope” to Príncipe’s thrilling 32-track label compilation. Alongside Puto Márcio, Lycox, and BBoy, Veiga also forms the Tia Maria Produções crew.
Ansiedade expands Veiga’s batida sound, stretching and adding to the template, “a true creative breakthrough” signalled by his previous Dia Não Mata Dia EP, which came out last year, the Lisbon label tells XLR8R.
“Loose and raw, not conforming to even the commonly accepted non-written rules of the genre, this is forward-thinking songwriting, not mere dance music production,” we’re told.
