Portugal’s DJ Dextro lands on Nicole Moudaber’s MOOD for the first time with the ‘Ground Level’ EP 14th November 2025. Already winning support from Chris Liebing, Chlär, Francois X, and more, the four-tracker opens with the title cut, a dancefloor-primed barrage of kicks, rolling stabs, and sonar-like beeps. ‘Consciência’ maintains the intensity with cavernous synth hits and a pounding rhythm, before ‘Tension’ adds raw, rattling percussion and futuristic sound design. Closing the release, ‘Superman Goes To The Supermarket’ lightens the mood with a deep, dubby groove, nostalgic sequences, and playful, tongue-in-cheek vocal sampling.
Active since the early ‘90s, Dextro has built a respected presence through decades of club residencies, global gigs, and releases on key labels such as CLR, Planet Rhythm, and Mutual Rhythm. As a remixer, he has reworked music for heavyweights including The Advent, Insolate, Scuba, and Christian Smith, reinforcing his standing as one of Portugal’s most consistent and long-standing Techno exports.
Since 2013, Nicole Moudaber has helmed MOOD Records, alongside her award-winning InTheMood radio show, expanding the label family in 2025 with the House-focused MoodCollective sublabel. Over the years, MOOD has become a trusted home for both established and emerging talent, championing artists such as Ida Engberg, Risa Taniguchi, Carlo Lio, Pig&Dan, Dense & Pika, Juliet Fox, and The Southern.
