Sol Discos

Sol Discos is the project of Solange Priscilla Cavalcante, a DJ, radio host and label founder from Fortaleza, Brazil, who spent nearly two decades in Amsterdam before moving to the United States in 2017. She grew up around her father's vinyl collection, went to Fortaleza's baile funk parties from 1993 and began running her own events in 1997. In 2000 she formed Forma Noise with multi-instrumentalist Dustan Gallas, making electronic music built on Brazilian rhythms; they released an album on the Dutch label Disco Voador, and their version of Tom Jobim's "Insensatez" appeared on Warner's 2001 compilation Boss-a-Tronic. Her label The89 issued Gallas's El Presidente Hi-Fi EP Drop Your Guns in a run of 150 copies.

After years working behind the scenes on Dutch events, she returned to DJing in 2012 as House of Pris, drawing on records collected while travelling. Her sets of baile funk, electro, freestyle and Miami bass have aired on NTS, Rinse FM, Dublab and Red Light Radio, and she has played Paradiso and Melkweg in Amsterdam.
