Born in Porto. Rooted in São Pedro do Sul.
Ohxala Records started in 2019 as a platform for releasing electronic music with a point of view. We moved to the Serra da Arada foothills, slowed down, and built something more deliberate: a label and a school for producers who take the craft seriously.
Four channels, one mix.
Electronic Music Academy
Structured courses for producers starting out, in English and Portuguese. Real references, interactive tools, no filler. Built the way we would have wanted to learn.
Discover the AcademyInteractive tools
Synths, drum machines, EQ, compressors and arrangement maps that run in the browser. Each one isolates a single idea you will use in every session.
Open the toolsWorkshops
Hands-on sessions in a room with speakers and other producers. Formats and dates are on the workshops page.
See the workshopsEvery concept is a pad you can play.
Each pad opens one of our tools in your browser. With the page playing, hover a pad and it plays its note in A minor pentatonic, the same way a drum rack does in Ableton.
