We want to thank everyone who came to dance with us and specially our good friends Macacos do Chines, J-WOW, Douster, Zombies for Money, PAUS, Octa Push and DJ Riot whom made us crawl for more!!

E-SPAM GOT NATIONAL AIRPLAY
João Barbosa aka J-WOW went to Antena 3 to review E-SPAM001 along side with Henrique Amaro at his show Portugália.
They talked about the attempt of Buraka Som Sistema to beat George Cloney’s air miles during last year tour all over the world, about Joao’s inevitable yet short rock career, about Roulet, a guy to watch from who we’ll give you fresh and juicy news pretty soon… But essentially they talked about music and the tracks included on our first compilation. Yes, this means that know that we have started… now can stop us now!!
