Anyone knows portuguese electronic music? What are the best names (artists and labels)? I´m spanish and curious to know the portuguese scene.

Plux Quba by Nuno Cannevero is the only thing I can think of offhand, but boy what a great album.

Let me second that. Well worth the finding -- wasn't it recorded in something like 1988 or the like?

I think The Advent are/is portuguese but thats how far i can go, but juan who cares about portugueses, pleez

I also remember The Wire releasing a Portuguese electronic music sampler a year or two ago, have to go dig it up.

electro-acoustic or acousmatic music was happening in Argentina's universities; Columbia, Mexico too. Well after the latest round of cost-cuts it's probably not still true, but several South American computer music composers have turned up in the European scene

it still seems to be a predominantly Mediteranean/imperial culture though, Bourges not Borges

Try the labels Nylon, Variz and Monocromática.

P.S. Who cares about Chupa-cabras?!

Your goats, for a start...

Yeah, that Nuno Cannevero album is from the late '80s. Can't wait to read the Mojo feature on it in five years -- hopefully that'll clear up all the mystery.

Oh, Chupa-cabra, estou cheio de medo...
