Príncipe

With his 'O Meu Estilo' 12'' EP debut release in 2013, DJ Nigga Fox crashed the gates with his visionary music as part of Lisbon's Principe Discos crew who have been showing an exciting youth and sonic culture nurtured out of the Portuguese capital urban and suburban areas into a EU widespread diaspora. His follow up on Príncipe in 2015, the extraordinary and next level 12'' EP entitled "Noite e Dia", had Resident Advisor praising "the four tracks [of the EP] are so bizarre and delirious they're almost intimidating, and yet they're exuberant in a way that could liberate dance floors."

In early 2017 he followed with the one sided 12'' "15 Barras", a soundtrack to an unrealized collaborative installation. The long form composition in it is a four-part movement of virulent acid, screeing strings and crowd noise unfolding over a seamless 15 minute arrangement, pushing his music to new conceptual limits. ‘Crânio’, his debut on Warp Records arrived in 2018. Six tracks of shapeshifting dancefloor psychedelia, or as Phil Sherburne aptly introduced it for his Pitchfork review "for his first release on Warp, the batida and electronic musician puts forth his own meticulous, otherworldly sound and reconnects with the avant-dance spirit of the label’s early years."

In late 2019 Príncipe published the supreme 'Cartas na Manga', his first proper full length. Beyond notions of history and African culture in Portugal and Europe, how it breathes and transforms that which is still from the streets, what the Algorithm rules and the State legislates, his is a work that is the fruit of his genuine gesture as a composer and producer, renewing time and time again the pleasure of free crossbreeding rhythm & sound.

By Summer 2020 live gigs were all but terminated but Nigga Fox was feeling countercyclical. He began morphing his set into a nonstop organic entity rather independent from the actual existence of a dancefloor. Príncipe released the fruit of this new practice in the Spring of 2021, the live recorded cassette "Live Nigginha Fox". Ever since he has been fine tuning his live act and achieved enthusiastically received performances in London's Somerset House Studios 5th anniversary bash and the Sónar Barcelona edition in the fall.

The composer, producer and deejay released a new EP on Príncipe titled "Música da Terra" on February 11 of 2022, and embarked on yet another tour of the East Coast of the US and México the following month.

DJ Narciso is part of the RS Produções crew, along with his colleagues Nuno Beats, Nulo, Dj Lima, Farucox and the honorary MC Pimenta. The collective from "Bagdad" (Rinchoa, Rio de Mouro) was formed in 2016 in their teen age years and have since reached a wider audience particularly after the release of their debut EP "Bagdad Style" on Príncipe a couple of years later. DJ Narciso stands out in the crew as a producer in continuous creative flow of new themes and dj tools, proportionally dense and flexible, in low and high rotations, working melody and metallic beats with equal proficiency. He released in February of 2022 a collaborative EP with UK producer Endgame, titled “NXE”, on Shanghai based label SVBKVLT. It was followed by the acclaimed debut long-player "Saúde Em 1º Lugar" by RS Produções at the tail end of the year. His solo debut record on Príncipe – a one sided 12’’ comprising a commissioned piece he did for a video dance choreography - arrived on December 1st of 2023.

Narciso has performed extensively across Euroland in festivals and venues such as Lux Frágil, The White Hotel, Razzmatazz, Trempo, Unsound Krakow, Exit Festival, Corsica Studios, Waking Life, Sõru Saund among others.
