DJ Marfox — the stage name of Marlon Silva — is best known for pioneering a new music genre that emerged from the Portuguese capital’s housing estates, referred to as ghetto sound of Lisbon, "batida" or "batucada", which incorporates African-influenced dance music such as kuduro, kizomba, funaná and tarraxinha with house and techno.
