Alfonsvs has been blurring the lines separating House from Techno for the past 12 years. On his early days, he saw one of his tracks being chosen for a physical release on a compilation by the Portuguese label Extended Records, which saw the daylight in 2016. In 2017, after being the Portuguese artist hand-picked by Burn, the energy drink brand, for the now extinct Burn Residency program in Ibiza, he got the chance to travel and play around Europe with other artists from around the Globe, picked up by the Burn Residency panel, which was composed by Philipp Straub, PeteTong, Luciano, Carl Cox, Seth Troxler and Loco Dice. The program consisted of several workshops, gigs in festivals such as Kappa FuturFestival and in iconic locations such as Space’s Club Museum in Ibiza, at Ibiza Sonica Radio, at IMS, among others. Through the hands of Laurent Garnier, he released in 2019 on the enigmatic Cod3 Qr label, putting his name next to an incredible roster of artists, such as Agents of Time, Scan X, or even Laurent himself. Also in 2019, he started together with V.H.S. (Hayes Collective), the event series Future Perfect, where he devoted himself to bringing back techno events to his hometown, in Portugal. With the help of local crews he managed to have special hand made decoration for each event, with local illustrators’ work being showcased in each flyer. This attention to detail was also seen on the line-ups he booked, joining international talent, such as Luke Slater, Freddy K, ø Phase, Fadi Mohem, among others, with Portuguese up-and-coming artists. More recently, as the programmer of the Kokölò label events, he has contributed to the diversity of Porto’s local scene with events in and outside clubs, bringing over international artists such as Tijana T, Solar, Ogazón, Theo Kottis, Lone, Dandy Jack, among others. His latest release on the Portuguese imprint Kokölò, showed a refreshed side to his sound, but still balancing the fine line between House and Techno. To complement his release, one of the original tracks was remixed by Berghain’s resident Answer Code Request. Having performed at festivals such as Kappa FuturFestival (Turin), Wood (Venice), RPMM (Porto), or in niche clubs, such as RX Istanbul, TRESOR (Berlin), Renate Garden (Berlin), Ulu Cliffhouse (Bali), Elephant (Oslo), Klein (Istanbul), Loco Club (Corfu), Gare (Porto), Industria Club (Porto), Pérola Negra (Porto), Plano B (Porto), among others, he is certainly an artist to keep an eye on.
