Alienação - Desterro #6

After a long time away from the basement, João Melgueira and his label Alienação return to Desterro to write a bright new chapter in his - and our - life. As always we expect only the unexpected, knowing that Melgueira carries with him the will and skill to move from the most sweaty dance music to moments of introspection, without ever losing energy or meaning. Carte blanche then for a night where João Melgueira and the values of Alienação set the tone, always with hand-picked guests. GUESTS: MELINA BLANCO Melina Blanco is an electronic music producer, live act and DJ from Costa Rica, based in Portugal. Her music shifts in different directions of style and energy. As a foundation of her work, Melina utilizes ambient music. When performing, her intention is to build an atmosphere, play unreleased music and always have space to improvise. On techno-oriented sets, the producer explores with experimental sounds such as noise and shifts to higher energy, distorted and hypnotic elements. Previous and current releases reflect her love for a more relaxed, playful and ethereal style of music as well. Productions where this can be listened, are Air, Éter and Lila. She is a co-founder of TMPL movement, an endeavor that promotes techno events in the growing electronic music scene in Costa Rica. CATREMA Catrema, born in Barreiro, in 1993 aka VAMPIRA likes to do a very sentimental "dança de cintura", thus giving an eclectic part of her diggin to the public in her sets, but always keeping the BPM's fast and her "ginga" so that we can all dance together.
