AfricaNouveau and the Ten Cities project. He has played for the
legendary British DJ Fatboy Slim. DJ Satelite is an ambassador
of the new Angolan sound and a pioneer of the African Electronic
Music scene that burns dance floors all across the globe.

"One of the very few producers who embraces
house music, yet does not shy away from kuduro,
the style in which he first honed his skills. He comes
from kuduro, so you know drum patterns hold no
secrets to him, and when he makes house music, it's
highly percussive, irresistible stuff."

"What impressed me was how I could visualize this
type of music in any New York club or Europe."

"Angolan producer DJ Satelite, who first came to our
attention with his accidental UK Funky anthem
Trombetas De Angola. Sterling stuff indeed!"
BoilerRoom

"One of Angola’s foremost music producers, who’s
making a huge splash in the thriving afro house
scene right now but refuses to let go of his kuduro
roots. Expect a masterclass on Angolan dance
music that must be witnessed (and danced to) on
the front row."
