Born In
Lisboa, Lisboa, Portugal
Xinobi is a part of a generation that grew up within the music-blog eruption fueled by Do It Yourself ethics. His sophomore album On The Quiet was up-fronted by the hits Far Away Place and Searching For (a collaboration with Lazarusman). A dance floor-focused story about the transition of many electronic musicians from punk rock & skateboarding into house music and about how dance-music can be a field for social conscious awareness. In the following years, he grew his catalog with Eps and remixes released on Anjunadeep, MoBlack, and Radiant, and his own Discotexas plus remixes Eps feat. Rampa, Tensnake, Jody Wisternoff, James Grant, Kraak & Smaak. 2019 saw him collaborating with one of the most important contemporary Fado singers –Gisela João- for the monumental Fado Para Esta Noite, as well as new Eps: Piano Lessons, Criaturas, Wonderful People - Original Mix, Morangos, Imaginary Numbers, Helium, Steady and compilation A Collection of Xinobi Dance Songs. Despite Xinobi’s appetite for devouring various genres, there is a unique watermark and consistency to his output, due not least to his musical and arrangement-based skills proven on his new album "Balsame" and its major singles La Tormenta, Amor Cego, and Phénix. Together with his friends Moullinex he gave birth to Discotexas.
