Our Take

Batida, the self-titled album from Portuguese producer Pedro Coquenão, aka Batida, is a vibrant and infectious journey through the sounds of Lisbon's vibrant music scene. Blending elements of kuduro, kizomba, and Afrobeat with electronic beats and catchy hooks, Batida creates a unique sonic landscape that is impossible to resist. From the opening track "Alegria" to the closing notes of "Ta Doce" this album is a non-stop party that will have you dancing from start to finish. Tracks like "Ceu" and "Tirei o Chapeu" showcase Batida's knack for combining traditional African rhythms with modern production techniques, creating a sound that is both nostalgic and forward-thinking. But it's not just the music that shines on this album - the lyrics, delivered in a mix of Portuguese and English, are a powerful commentary on society, politics, and the human experience. Songs like "Puxadinho" and "Nada Para Ti" tackle issues of gentrification, inequality, and corruption with wit and intelligence, proving that Batida is not just a master of the dancefloor, but a thoughtful and thought-provoking artist as well. In short, Batida is a triumph of creativity, collaboration, and innovation that deserves a place in every music lover's collection. So grab your dancing shoes, turn up the volume, and let Batida take you on a musical journey like no other. Trust us, you won't be disappointed.
