I’ve written before about two dance music podcasts I contribute to, CantoVivo and SobEscuta. It was for the first one, that I produced one more DJ set, my best of all times imho. This time, I tried something more spacey, easy to listen to. Go grab it and throw some comments in the box below!

And for the curious, here’s the playlist:

1. Cabo San Roque vs Luciano – Calypso 08
2. Def Blond & Fafa Monteco feat Blackfeet – Perfect Love, Parfait Amour
3. Tortured Soul – Enjoy It Now (123 Extended Vocal Mix)
4. Nôze – Danse Avec Moi
5. Kentphonik feat Khensy – Hiya Kaya
6. Efdemin – Lohn & Brot (Sebo K Version 1)
7. Cloudkickers feat Marcus – Bring On The Night (Rocco’s Trodeep Remix)
8. Marbert Rocel – Beats Like Birds

Ah pois é!! Os Gato Fedorento são de facto um ícone da criatividade em Portugal.. e vai daí, um indivíduo de nome Armando Teixeira (aka Catorze) – se estiveres por aí, apita!! – criou um tema house com vocais do próprio Ricardo Araújo Pereira, baseado num dos mais famosos sketchs desta quadrilha, o Lusco Fusco.. “Eu sou empresário do lusco-fusco”..

A Bloop Recordings, uma editora portuguesa que já lançou outros projectos de grande calibre, como é o caso dos meus amigos The JohnWaynes, puxa dos cordelinhos e vai buscar H.O.S.H., que num surto de boa disposição e espírito de folia nos leva numa viagem muito porreira que nos faz mesmo acreditar que estamos a viver um lusco-fusco!

Agora uma dica para todos os jovens produtores tugas por esta web fora.. para quando um remix de “Pá, porreiro pá!”?! Vá lá, não deixem que sejam apenas os americanos a ter um “Yes, We Can!”

Hi folks,

As many of you are aware I collect vinyl records. It’s a passion inherited from my father and some old friends of mine who are tightly connected to the music scene – not only the dance/electronic thing, but also instrumental, orchestral and romantic music (romantic in the truly sense of the genre). Anyway, many of them are music producers, live performers or even DJs, so it became natural that I’d soon or later be involved in one of these activities.

That’s how I started.. playing some records at my homies private parties, just for the fun of it. Rapidly, I had the chance to play in a local bar and soon enough I’d be playing in some nice places out of my home city, Aveiro.

But, even though music is a great passion – I’m currently developing my audio production skills -, I already have a job (another passion of mine. oh boy, am I passionate or what?!), so I won’t try to make a living out of this, but instead I’ll keep playing here and there, now and then, mostly with friends.

And that’s why I’m writing this post, to present you with a project between me and a couple of friends, Diogo Lobo and Pedro Menício , named Urban Audio Society. Three music lovers who, together, break the boundaries of the dance scene and prove to everyone that the mind also dances and the body also thinks.

If you like lightweight, sweet and joyful music, please feel invited to listen to our first DJ set. Feedback is highly expected. Enjoy!

Hellow fellow geeks,

I’m in need of some assistance both in the legal and the technical fields in my pursue to create an online radio. AFAIK the Portuguese legislation defines that an Internet Radio does not need any kind of specific authorization to exist, but what about the contents available through it? I mean, what about copyright rights and publicity acts? Are there any other legal concerns that I should care about?

On the technical field I would like you to comment about your personal choices for Radio/MP3 streaming and podcasting.

Update:  According to the Portuguese entity that rules the media I found out that there’s no need for an authorization to get your online radio rocking the world . The link is in Portuguese.

Thanks in advance,

PP

Hi fellow geeks,

To those of you who are interested in graphic design, audio production or video creation may I present UbuntuStudio! Following Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty Fawn), this first release already brings some fresh n’ sweet juice in it so go and have a drink yourself

Dear Lazyweb,

I’d like to create a dynamic podcast feed using PHP and MySQL. Something that I could manage (i.e. with a backoffice) and integrate into my website. Would you be so kind and provide me with a simple solution of yours?

Many thanks in advance,

PP

Hi fellow geeks,

Google recently made public one of its most profound secrets! No, it’s not related to business, but instead to a good code pratice: unit testing. In a funny way, Google Code Testing Team frequently releases episodes about unit testing with the codename Testing on the Toilet, as a PDF file, so that yourself, like they do, are able to print it and, as pointed by them, get it on your company toilets!! This way, they hope, when people are on their meditation time they can learn/share some great tips about unit testing. A must see!!
