These DJs and producers have brought the sound of the Lisbon projects to the wider world via international club nights, festival appearances, recordings and remix projects for a range of international artists.\u003cbr\u003eThis book uses the 2006 compilation \u003ci\u003eDJs do Guetto\u003c\/i\u003e as a prism for exploring this music's aesthetics and its roots in Lusophone Africa, its evolution in the immigrant communities of Lisbon and its journey from there to the world. The story is one of encounters: between people, sounds, neighborhoods, technologies and cultural contexts. Drawing on reflections by DJ Marfox and others, the book establishes \u003ci\u003eDJs do Guetto\u003c\/i\u003e as a foundation stone not only for a burgeoning music scene, but also for a newfound sense of pride in a place and a community.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRichard Elliott \u003c\/b\u003eis Senior Lecturer in Music at Newcastle University, UK.
