Review: Hot Portuguese property Pedro has been glued to our radar since his debut "Damaia" EP in 2017. Fusing club music with Angolan, Brazilian and Cape Verdean influences, "Da Linha" is a bewitching brew of beats and bass that sits somewhere between gqom and house and never sits still. One moment we're treated to a tropical grime admonishment ("Too Much" with Nigerian MC Magugu), the next we're being massaged into sublime submission with the soothing reflective "Terra Treme", and before we know it we're neck deep in a dancefloor riot on the beat-heavy "Stuck On You" where the addictive whistling line and Bryte's vocals drive us into an entirely different submission. Loaded with emotional, moving moments such as the Balearic sunset-charmed "Calores", this is a superb accomplished debut album from an exciting artist who's just at the start of his journey.
