Portuguese producer and batida pioneer DJ Marfox has announced his latest six-track EP, Chapa Quente, out April 15 on influential label Príncipe. He's also shared the first single, "2685," which features a propulsive flute melody and the chaotic, thundering drums he's become known for.

The record was inspired by his world travels, as well as his upbringing in Lisbon's now demolished shantytown Quinta da Vitória, where he came of age amongst immigrants from India, Pakistan, and Cabo Verde.

Listen to the song and check out the EP's tracklist below.
