DJ K: Radio Libertadora! review – explosive freedom and skilful cacophony
Over the past two years, Kaique Vieira, AKA DJ K, has been crafting a new sound of São Paolo. Influenced by local favela street parties, the 24-year-old producer takes the distorted bass, Afro-Brazilian rhythms and vocal melodies of baile funk – a dance genre that originated in Brazil in the 80s – and adds a darker palette of reverb-laden vocal lines, rave sirens and buzzing synths to create a style he calls bruxaria (witchcraft). Vieira's 2023 debut Pânico no Submundo was a 15-track introduction, harnessing the sound of blown-out speaker cones. Radio Libertadora! moves into even bolder and louder territory, developing his nascent genre into a source of dancefloor chaos. Opening with a sample of a 1969 radio speech by the revolutionary Carlos Marighella, which called on people to act against Brazil's military dictatorship – and gives the album its title – Vieira sets the tone for the record as an energetic riposte to the current criminalisation of baile funk street parties. In his bruxaria universe, the beats are hard, vocals are screamed and bass is explosive, creating an overwhelming, apocalyptic sound. Mega Suicidio Auditivo features siren squeals, thunderous bass, radio jingle samples and shouted lyrics within the first 20 seconds, while Sua Filha Quer Os D layers rap verses and synth melody over the Islamic adhan call to prayer. Techno de Favelado veers seamlessly from harsh Berlin techno to trance and baile funk rhythm while featured Meduza tries to make herself heard. Vieira displays immense skill in balancing his arrangements and allowing each element, no matter how brash, to play clearly without collapsing into muddy loudness. Some listeners may find it too noisy, but succumb to Vieira's relentless energy and there is freedom in the barrage of sounds – an invitation to lose yourself in the cacophony. Australian ensemble Hand to Earth release their latest album Ŋurru Wäŋa (Room40). Ambient electronics and bass drones anchor First Nations singer Daniel Wilfred's yearning vocalisations and Wáglilak language lyrics, producing six moving tracks that reflect on a search for home. Singer Ami Taf Ra's debut The Prophet and the Madman (Brainfeeder) combines Arabic vocal melodies with spiritual jazz ensemble arrangements to create a sprawling and involved interpretation of the work of poet Kahlil Gibran; Kamasi Washington features on How I Became a Madman, a soaring, virtuosic highlight. Brazilian guitarist Atletas delivers a luscious and warmly intimate record in Reflexão Meteórica (Municipal K7). Shades of electronic percussion and synths blend with his finger-picked guitar melodies to produce wistful, shimmering soundscapes.

Hollywood star's nepo baby son reveals ripped torso and bulging biceps while on holiday with his stunning girlfriend
Louis Serkis showed off his ripped torso and bulging biceps while on holiday with his stunning girlfriend on Instagram on Thursday. The nepo baby is the son of Andy Serkis, who famously spent hours in a motion-capture suit to transform into Gollum for The Lord of the Rings. Now his film and TV star son is turning heads with an eye-catching transformation of his own. The 21-year-old scion of British acting royalty shared a series of shirtless holiday snaps, while revealing an impressively sculpted physique. In the photos, the rising star can be seen on a beach in Colombia, wearing nothing but black swim shorts and sunglasses. Louis is the youngest son of Andy and his wife, the actress Lorraine Ashbourne, who stars in Netflix hit Bridgerton. The 21-year-old scion of British acting royalty shared a series of holiday snaps with his girl, who the Daily Mail can reveal is British equestrian-turned-stuntwoman Amelia Haynes While his dad is famous for disappearing into digital characters like Caesar in Planet of the Apes, Louis is very much stepping into the spotlight as himself. Alongside his beach snaps, Louis also shared photos of his girlfriend, who the Daily Mail can reveal is British equestrian-turned-stuntwoman Amelia Haynes. The stunning blonde also shared a photo of them on Instagram as she stunned in a floral sundress as Louis planted a kiss on her head. Louis' first on-screen appearance was in 2012's The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, which featured his dad's return as Gollum. The role, credited as 'Cute Young Hobbit', marked the beginning of what has become a successful journey so far into the family business. In 2018, he appeared as the wolf cub Bhoot in Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle, directed by and co-starring his father. He then landed the lead role in the 2019 film, The Kid Who Would Be King, co-starring Sir Patrick Stewart and Rebecca Ferguson. He also starred alongside Anya Taylor-Joy in the hit Netflix series, The Queen's Gambit, and more recently, played the troubled teen son of Martin Clunes' character in ITV's Out There. Louis' sister Ruby, is also an actress, best known for The Letter for the King on Netflix, while his brother Sonny has dipped into acting too. 'I was never obliged to take part in what they do and they never forced it on me and said 'this is what your going to do',' Louis told The Mirror earlier this year. 'But I love it, I have always loved entertaining and bringing joy through that. 'I think if you get the opportunity to tell a story and to inspire people I think you should take it. 'I was young and in a way stumbled into acting, and tried it when I was around seven or eight.' The star is doing his parents proud, as his dad gushed in 2019 to Entertainment Tonight: 'I'm just extraordinarily proud. Seeing him go through all the work, the training, the buildup and then the filming. 'All my kids are just growing up. They're experiencing travelling and seeing the world... having their experiences broadened. It's great.'
