"So Get Up" Escucha los mejores sonidos de club portugueses

Letrista y vocalista de todas las versiones de So Get Up, Ithaka (Ithaka Darin Pappas) Underground Sound Of Lisbon ft. Ithaka – So Get Up (1994) So Get Up supuso el ir más allá de lo que era habitual, es decir, rock y fado. Fue publicado en 1994 como cara B de Chapter One y parte de la letra dice: “The end of the world is upon us, pretty soon it will all turn to dust”, un trabajo de Ithaka (ou Ithaka Darin Pappas), un artista griego-Californiano. La versión USL de la canción es en realidad un remix de la versión original de 1992 de Ithaka (quien también es el vocalista del remix de 1994). So Get Up de USL ft. Ithaka conquistó el mundo cuando el sello Tribal America se lo dio a Junior Vazquez y Danny Tenaglia. https://www.redbull.com/int-es/sonidos-esencial-de-club-portugueses El mundillo de la música electrónica portuguesa está en plena efervescencia y es uno de los más originales de Europa. Como en otros muchos lugares todo empezó escuchando sonidos tecno y rave provenientes de EE.UU, Reino Unido y Alemania. Luego el Underground Sound Of Lisbon cambió todo el panorama durante las tres últimas décadas. El movimiento está muy influido por la lusofonía, los sonidos que los emigrantes de Angola y Cabo Verde llevaron a Portugal, que con el tiempo se ha convertido en algo más global. Mientras Lisboa se prepara para acoger el Red Bull Culture Clash, vamos a presentarte algunos de los sonidos de club más importantes de la capital portuguesa de los últimos 30 años.
