Lisbon-based label Príncipe achieved legend status in Portugal by stretching the sounds of the West African diaspora into new territories of hybrid club sound—a reputation on full display during this eclectic label night.
Príncipe label head Danifox and DJ Lycox cross the Atlantic with swaying, syncopated Afro-house that channels the traditions of Angolan batida and kuduro into floor-filling funk rhythms. They’re joined by fellow Príncipe artist DJ NiggaFox, whose experimental beats and unpredictable range is equally at home on the dancefloor and among the avant-garde, and SAY3, whose own boundary-pushing club sonics bridge the audio-cultural distance between Lisbon and NYC.

their own biography
the whole biography
Inspired by his family’s love of music, Say3 took up the drums at the age of 12. It was only a few years later that Say3 discovered late night groove parties and the rhythms of house music. From there, Say3 promptly sold his drum set, purchased his Traktor deck and began performing at local house parties, basements and abandoned warehouses. Now a regular fixture of Atlanta’s club scene, Say3 has shared the stage with well-known DJ’s such as Mina , Ape Drums , and Brenmar , who he also collaborated with on the March 2018 single Free Up released on High End Times. Say3 has released a steady stream of original tracks and remixes throughout the past year including three compilations of afro-edits which has gained him supporters from around the world. His productions also feature on Bryte recent mixtape, who is one of Ghana’s most exciting upcoming vocalists, released on UK label More Time Records. Say3 also runs “Flux” a party in Miami that showcases his global influences and forward thinking underground music.Their RA profile lists More Time.Recently at Mood Ring, Silence Please, Paragon · often with Uche, J-Cush, Nadus, none of them here that night
