Various - Portuguese Deep Frequencies mp3 download

Arlelond

This is an interesting release, first of all because of the original solid black CD similar to that of Paradox's "The Mezosoic Era" release, and secondly due to the fact that it is the first 100% portuguese garage/dubstep compilation that I have heard. The CD opens on a relaxed dubby note as you might expect from the first track title, continues with a bit of UK Garage (Darqwan esque "Gg Riddim", Portuguese Mcing on "Estade Puro"), before going dark underground on Mobphonic's "Minestrome". There are some original ideas here, most of which work ; I like Lesma's "Daydream" but I'm not so sure about Deckjack's "Dai-me Forças" remix. All in all a good compilation which for me won't just gather dust on the shelf.
