Cartographies of Rhythm - Portugal w/ Rita De Carvalhal

This month's episode navigates Portugal's Atlantic coastline through waves of ambient textures and fractured rhythms. Opening with abstract soundscapes that echo like fog through Lisbon's tiled alleyways, the journey evolves into polyrhythmic breaks that pulse with the heartbeat of bombo drums. Saudade-soaked vocal fragments drift between broken-beat techno, while pandeireta patterns scatter like azulejo tiles across bass-heavy foundations, mapping electronic futures onto fado's melancholic past.

This episode will be a b2b between me and Rita. Rita is Portuguese-British DJ based in Glasgow, exploring a wide spectrum of sounds from house to breaks. Starting out through student club nights, Her sets are shaped by rhythm and range.
