Pedro da Linha is a Lisbon-based producer, DJ and composer who has been bringing a fresh, bold and contemporary perspective to Lusophone music. Blending electronic beats, vibrant global rhythms, his musical inspirations and collaborations across the Portuguese-speaking world, he creates a distinctive sound that moves freely between cultures and musical genres.
The artist released his new album, Música Menor Mas Feliz, featuring acclaimed artists such as Bonga (Angola), Camané (Portugal) and Jadsa (Brazil). The album is a celebration of rhythm, clubbing, connection and the joy of dancing. It takes his reinvention of beats, melodies and influences even further: every choice — from the track titles and reference texts to the sound design, timbres and electronic arrangements — has been carefully considered to create a balance between colour, emotion and rhythm, combining acoustic and digital elements into a cohesive narrative.
Pedro da Linha’s new live show expands his sound into a collaborative live band experience, blending electronic production with live instrumentation, including bass, percussion and trumpet.
As a producer and composer, Pedro da Linha has worked with prominent artists such as Buraka Som Sistema, Branko, Ana Moura or Dino D’Santiago. As a DJ, he draws directly from the energy of the golden era of Portuguese club culture, including the legacy of labels such as Príncipe Discos and Enchufada. In 2017, one of his tracks, “Drenas”, was featured in one of the shows of Rihanna’s Savage X Fenty. He has brought the energy of his DJ sets to SONAR and Primavera Sound Porto, as well as to major venues and festivals including NOS Alive, FMM Sines, Fusion Festival in Berlin, Jazz Café in London, Fabrique in Milan, L’Aerosol in Paris, Sala Caracol in Madrid, Razzmatazz in Barcelona and Boiler Room.
