porto, pt
Dope Ammo Records is owned and run by my brother, dj, producer - Coco. The Drum and Bass label was formed over 10 years ago now and has made its mark on this scene, home and abroad. Travelling has become part of the job and recently included this trip to Porto.
The life of a DJ might sound pretty exciting, but being a first hand witness on this one night trip to Portugal I can tell you that its pretty tiring and involves plenty of hanging round pretty much doing nothing....then just when your tired enough to hit the sack a taxi picks you up to get you to a club where you have to play music to a few hundred young party heads. Its a strange feeling going from a lonely hotel room in a unfamiliar deserted urban 3 star to the complete adoration of a big happy crowd. The Portuguese don't even get to the club til 3am, so we were there to see the sunrise before sleeping it off to the airport. Occupational hazard in effect.
