Moment Digital Angel Workstation, A Dudda Moment

In 2021, Iglooghost and I (umru speaking) discovered 2 soundcloud pages masquerading as Brazilian alternate universe personas of us: UMRU DA VILA SAUDADE and DJ IGLOOGHOST DO CAPÃO REDONDO, churning out high-effort funk homages to each of our Splice packs for years on end. It turned out the mastermind behind this was now-22-year-old Brazilian producer dudda, and those accounts barely scratch the surface. Raised on Soundcloud, she’s a card-carrying member of K-pop edit troupe [4KAE], charity community Goop House, and Brazilian Soundclown cult NAÇÃOREBOLATION69, who have posted hundreds of tracks this year alone and are establishing a Gen Z foothold in Brazil's DIY rave scene. She’s collaborated with agazero (ICQ BABY), yandrel, ghast chloe, umru and; Chase Icon, and her latest EP ‘PERSONAL ANGEL’ is a nightcore ode to trance music and virtual connections.

‘Digital Angel Workstation’ may be the first true second generation Moment sample pack. Across the pack we caught glimpses of underscores’ game-style impacts, tracey brakes’ Serum showpieces, and refinements on Season 1’s metal snare formula - it felt like an honest love letter written by an artist fluent in sample pack. It’s a melting pot between the golden era hyperpop of PC Music, the futuristic club of Fractal Fantasy, and dariacore’s maximalism, all forged in the wake of Brazil’s triumph in the loudness wars. 

“This is a collection of personal sounds made with angel dust and mystic instruments by a bunch of cute angel creatures that live inside my computer and help me produce my songs,” dudda tells us over Discord. “They go absolutely wack sometimes but they also can do beautiful things, and this pack is the result of it.”
