Alex Figueira

Alex Figueira is a Venezuelan-Portuguese musician, producer, DJ, and record collector. He is known as the hardest-working man in the tropical music industry. Whether that’s true, we don’t know. But Alex does a lot, and he does most of it himself.

On his solo debut album Mentallogenic, Alex Figueira plays every instrument himself and also handles all the technical details single-handedly. The highly praised album was dubbed “a crate digger’s delight” by The Guardian, and Giles Peterson invited his BBC 6 listeners to add everything by Alex to their playlists. Let yourself be carried away by the cheerful, sweet sounds of this solo artist, who is also the founder of the acclaimed tropical psych-punk group Fumaça Preta, the Afro-Caribbean psychedelic sensation Conjunto Papa Upa, the legendary record store Vintage Voudou Records, the tropical experimental label Music With Soul Records, and the music production studio Heat Too Hot (formerly Barracão Sound).
