About Batida / Kuduro / Electronic
Lisbon's Afro-diasporic electronic scene fuses kuduro, kizomba, funana, house, and techno into a hybrid sound born in the city's immigrant communities. Buraka Som Sistema brought it global attention, while DJ Marfox and the Principe Discos label refined batida into a distinctly Lisbon-born musical language recognized worldwide.
