Back In Stock

Neon Colonialismo is the first album under his own name since 2014, by musical agitator Batida, aka Pedro Coquenao, one of the main catalysts of the Afro-electronic scene. Carried by a subtle and refined electronic production, the ten tracks (equally divided between songs and instrumentals), travel through the Portuguese- speaking world, from Portugal to Angola through Cape Verde and Brazil. They feature the presence of many distinguished guests: Mayra Andrade, Branko, DJ Satelite, Pote, Botto Trindade, Bonga, Ikonoklasta, Octa Push, Lia de Itamaraca, DJ Dolores, Joao Morgado, Pedro da Linha and Nastio Mosquito.
