The most famous are Rui da Silva and DJ Vibe, of course… But one of the most impressive names is Felix daCat, a DJ associated to sets where house music show all its deepness, musicality, humour and fantasy, but also as raw-material able to be shaped to the DJ work, who in modern days can- as Felix daCat do- conciliate the warmness of vinyl with new digital technologies. Indeed in his DJ sets you can hear those familiar melodies and bass lines being modified in real time with all his expertise in sonic manipulation via loops, FX, bootlegs or edits.
