the whole biography
Alfonsvs has been blurring the lines separating House from Techno for the past 12 years. On his early days, he saw one of his tracks being chosen for a physical release on a compilation by the Portuguese label Extended Records, which saw the daylight in 2016. In 2017, after being the Portuguese artist hand-picked by Burn, the energy drink brand, for the now extinct Burn Residency program in Ibiza, he got the chance to travel and play around Europe with other artists from around the Globe, picked up by the Burn Residency panel, which was composed by Philipp Straub, Pete Tong, Luciano, Carl Cox, Seth Troxler and Loco Dice. The program consisted of several workshops, gigs in festivals such as Kappa FuturFestival and in iconic locations such as Space's Club Museum in Ibiza, at Ibiza Sonica Radio, at IMS, among others. Through the hands of Laurent Garnier, he released in 2019 on the enigmatic Cod3 Qr label, putting his name next to an incredible roster of artists, such as Agents of Time, Scan X, or even Laurent himself. Also in 2019, he started together with V.H.S. (Hayes Collective), the event series Future Perfect, where he devoted himself to bringing back techno events to his hometown, in Portugal. With the help of local crews he managed to have special hand made decoration for each event, with local illustrators' work being showcased in each flyer. This attention to detail was also seen on the line-ups he booked, joining international talent, such as Luke Slater, Freddy K, ø Phase, Fadi Mohem, among others, with Portuguese up-and-coming artists. More recently, as the programmer of the Kokölò label events, he has contributed to the diversity of Porto's local scene with events in and outside clubs, bringing over international artists such as Ryan Elliott, Nathalies Seres, Tijana T, Solar, Ogazón, Theo Kottis, Shed, Monty Luke, Dandy Jack, among others. His latest releases on the Portuguese imprint Kokölò, in 2022 and 2023, showed a refreshed side to his sound, but still balancing the fine line between House and Techno. To complement of of his recent releases, one of the original tracks was remixed by Berghain's resident Answer Code Request. Having performed at festivals such as Kappa FuturFestival (Turin), Mahagoni (Leipzig), Wood (Venice), RPMM (Porto), or in niche clubs, such as RX Istanbul, Lux (Lisbon), The Lion and Lamb (London), Renate (Berlin), Cabaret Voltaire (Edinburgh), Elephant (Oslo), Klein (Istanbul), Loco Club (Corfu), Pérola Negra (Porto), Plano B (Porto), among others, he is certainly an artist to keep an eye on.Their RA profile lists Extended Records, Fluxus, Cod3 QR and Kokölò.often with Adriana Ruas, Julia Govor, Double Penetration, none of them here that night

the whole biography
Influenced by the sound of Chicago House as well as the Riviera House scene of the ’90s and early ’00s, he's known for a melting pot of analog synths, groovy basslines, and syncopated rhythms. His sets travel through classic House, Acid, Detroit Techno, and Progressive House—striking the right balance between cheeky grooves and psychedelic soundscapes, taking the dancefloor on a journey of high energy and big smiles. Between 2021 and 2023, he ran a residency at MusicBox Lisbon focused on connecting the Italian and Portuguese scenes. Besides his regular shows in Lisbon and Milan, throughout the years he has had the chance to bring his sound around Europe and Asia, playing in places like Bangkok, Seoul, Tokyo, Osaka, London, and Sofia, among others—sharing the line-up with artists like Emmanuelle, Kamma & Masalo, Hunee, Don Carlos, Satoshi Tomiie, and the living legend Nicky Siano. He has also contributed to renowned podcast series, including a full mix for the long-running channel Gazzz696, awarded Mix of the Day by Resident Advisor. Black Pomade has released music on Last Forever Records, Wilson Records, Rollover Milano Anything Goes, Stereo Ferment, Youngbloods, and on vinyl for Martino Edits and Windmill Re-Edits. In 2023, his remix for Sontag Shogun was featured on the Apple TV show Platonic.
