DJ Marfox
Biography
DJ Marfox (born Marlon Silva in June 1988) is a Portuguese DJ best known for pioneering batida or batucada, a music genre that emerged from Lisbon's housing estates. Batida and Batucada are referred to as the "ghetto sound of Lisbon", and they incorporate African-influenced dance music such as kuduro, kizomba, funaná and tarraxinha with house and techno. Taking inspiration from a Nintendo character, 'Marfox' merged part of his first name "Marl" from "Marlon" with Star Fox, a character he played as a teenager.
