DJ Campira is steadily building an international reputation through his distinctive approach to Afro House and Afro Tech. Born in Mozambique, he discovered his passion for music in 2012 under the guidance of DJ Nino Kizomba, eventually turning professional in 2015. His move to Portugal marked an important turning point, allowing him to expand his audience and become one of the most requested DJs within the Portuguese-speaking community. Having performed across Africa and Europe, Campira has also shared stages with renowned artists including Black Coffee, Maphorisa, Da Capo and Shimza.
His 2026 EP, “So Na Batucada”, brings together six tracks that reflect the evolution of his sound and the growing influence of his music. The project combines four established releases, “Garrafa”, “Dama De Palop”, “Salva De Palmas” and “Modo Galinha”, with two previously unreleased collaborations, “Borboleta” featuring MC Pablo and “Modo Loucura” featuring STIWANI. Rooted in Afro rhythms, vibrant percussion and infectious club energy, the EP celebrates the musical connections between Mozambique, Guinea-Bissau and the wider Lusophone community.
Among the six tracks, “Borboleta” takes center stage as the project’s leading release. Its preview has already generated more than 150,000 TikTok creations, demonstrating remarkable organic interest before its official arrival. Meanwhile, “Modo Loucura” has accumulated over 10,000 videos, further highlighting the growing anticipation surrounding the EP. Both tracks benefit from dance trends, audience engagement and DJ support, reinforcing Campira’s ability to turn his music into a social and cultural movement.
Beyond this release, Campira is preparing to take his career to another level. His collaboration “Garrafa” with Iuri Stone has earned Gold certification in Portugal and surpassed 7.7 million Spotify streams, while his catalogue continues to attract listeners across international markets. With upcoming collaborations involving Mohombi, French artist Ghenda and Brazilian MC Danny, Campira is setting his sights on a wider global audience. “So Na Batucada” represents both a celebration of his achievements and the beginning of an ambitious new chapter.
