Príncipe will release a new album from XEXA, a young Afro-Portuguese artist living in London.

Vibrac​̧​o​̃​es de Prata is a presentation of XEXA’s different sensibilities as a composer, musician, and sound designer, mapping what are in effect her initial explorations with voice, rhythms, synths, and ambience.

As a student at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama in London between 2019 and 2023, she presented in her third year a portfolio that included what we can now listen as “Clarinet Mood,” the final track on the album.

Her intention was to “study the feeling of listening to music as an environment one inhabits and not as a sound that follows you throughout the day.”

Artwork comes from Márcio Matos.
