Most memorable live performance?
There are many great ones, but I guess one of the events off my own back in Ṣo Paulo, called Spot, where we had the party on railroad tracks with a massive crowd, which was like 3 thousand people, and a movie backstage with all my friends together for my bday party Рsuper vibe.
DJ or Producing?
DJing. For the fact that I enjoy playing when I can see the reactions to my own songs and am able to make people have a great time, which is priceless. But, at the same time, I love producing because I can think of the moment when I will be blasting my tunes to the crowd: so, neither discipline can really live without the other. I’ve been doing studio work for a while (ghost producing for people, mixing, mastering etc) and it’s really not my thing, I would rather be on stage or be working on my own productions.
Favourite Artist outside of Electronic Music?
Lamb of God!
What would be your top three desert island essentials? 
Depends on the type of island but for most cases a sharp axe, water filter and a strong dog, guess I would have a good time until the rescue!
Most influential artist to you? 
In Techno, definitely Richie Hawtin, the man provided me with some of the best raving and philosophical insights Iʼve ever felt whilst attending his performances, the whole Close show with the visuals and light work was one of the most incredible things Iʼve experienced in terms of art.
Bucket list venue? 
Gashouder no doubts, for me that place is where Techno stops being abstract and becomes a reality.
All-time favourite track? 
‘Engage The Fear Machine’ – Lamb of God
and
‘Let Me Think About It’ – Fedde Le Grand, in terms of Electronic Music, as it was the first Dance track I ever listened to, and I’ll never forget the moment.
Biggest achievement in your career so far? 
Well, I think everything is a blessing, from all the experiences and people Iʼve met, it’s all pretty crazy for an Amazonian kid like me to experience travelling around the world, performing to people, playing my own songs and all, if i told that myself when I was 13, I would never have believed it.
Are you an early bird or night owl?  
Early bird in the week and night owl at the weekends.
Favourite track you’ve ever produced?  
Hard one, for the fact that I make tons of tunes, to the point I even forget about them. But an emotional one for me was ‘Celestial’ released by Hotstage Records; it was a delicate time for me, and I used my feelings to write the track, which made me feel good.
