The breathtaking 360° live show recorded above the main stage dancefloor at Primavera Sound Porto is out now
MXGPU, the collaborative project of Portuguese artists Moullinex and GPU Panic, announce the release of ‘Live Over Porto’, a full-length liveset captured during their stunning performance at Primavera Sound Porto in June 2026. Filmed in a single take and performed suspended above the festival’s main stage dancefloor, ‘Live Over Porto’ expands MXGPU’s distinctive 360° live format into one of their most ambitious performances to date.
Rather than separating artist and audience through a traditional stage, MXGPU perform high above the crowd, surrounding the dancefloor with sound, movement and new visuals. Suspended from a crane above the Primavera Sound main stage audience, the duo turns the entire space into a stage. The result is a live electronic performance experienced from every angle, with the audience physically at the centre of the work.
Following ‘Live Over Lisbon’ in 2025 – their live performance suspended 15 metres above the Tagus River in the Portugese capital – ‘Live Over Porto’ takes MXGPU’s ongoing exploration of music, performance art and immersive experience directly into the heart of the dancefloor.
Speaking about the experience, MXGPU said:
“One year after flying over the river, we built it above the dancefloor. Primavera Sound Porto dared us to take it further; suspended 30 meters above the crowd on a crane, wrapped in light we designed just for this moment, closing the main stage. The stakes were real. We (literally) rose to meet them. Seeing the crowd from above as we played is an image that will stay with us.”
MXGPU unites the creative forces of Moullinex and GPU Panic, producers, songwriters and performers Luís Clara Gomes and Guilherme Tomé Ribeiro. At the heart of the project is a distinctive 360° live experience built around MXGPU’s signature triangular structure. The format removes the conventional separation between stage and audience, allowing the performance to exist within the dancefloor rather than in front of it. Music, light, visuals and physical space become part of the same experience. The audience can move around the performance, experience it from different perspectives and become an active part of the environment.
MXGPU go Live Under Lisbon: October 10
Looking forwards, on October 10, MXGPU will take their exploration of unconventional spaces underground with ‘Live Under Lisbon’, an event conceived and curated by MXGPU. Taking place at Hidden Metro Olaias, the event will transform the underground location into a temporary club for more than eight hours, bringing together Adriana Ruas, Isadora (Live), Madd Rod and Sainte Vie (Live) alongside MXGPU (Live).
Expanding upon the duo’s interest in transforming unexpected architectural spaces into immersive dancefloors, ‘Live Under Lisbon’ will turn a hidden part of Lisbon’s infrastructure into a new environment for electronic music, performance and collective experience.
