Mama Demba
Lusophone record-digger DJ with a Cabo Verdean focus
Based in Lisbon, Portugal
He plays warm, percussive sets built from Cape Verdean, Angolan, São Tomé and Príncipe, Guinea-Bissau and Caribbean cuts, with plenty of low-end sway and singalong hooks. Expect fast crate-to-crate blending rather than clean genre blocks, with a strong lean toward roots, party records and deep archival pulls.
