I met two amazing artist from Belgium this weekend and I realised I still had to return to this session 🤭

Rewatching these snippets now feels strangely nostalgic.
Recorded this session for .radio in Brussels last year.

I remember arriving with a folder full of tracks that had been shaping my nights and days for months. Hypnotic grooves, trippy textures, emotional moments hidden between heavier rhythms. The kind of music that slowly pulls people into the same state of mind.

What I love about these recordings is that they capture more than just the sound 😎
Finally sharing a few snippets from that day 💜
Curious to know which moment connects with you the most 👇🏽 let me know in comments!

Two weeks ago, I had the opportunity to moderate a panel on “The Power of Identity - Artist Branding” at Lisbon Dance Summit

Over a few intense days, Lisbon became a meeting point between artists, labels, collectives, promoters and professionals from different parts of the electronic music ecosystem.

Conversations like these are important not because they offer definitive answers, but because they expose the tensions shaping music culture today:

art and industry
community and commerce
visibility and integrity
growth and sustainability

Electronic music has always existed between experimentation, collective experience and structural realities. And perhaps one of the biggest challenges now is learning how to navigate these spaces consciously, without losing the cultural depth and human connection that made these scenes meaningful in the first place.

Grateful to everyone I shared this conversation and experience with.
This city needs a bit of shake up 💎
Great gathering!!

Food for thoughts 💭

“Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up.” Pablo Picasso

We live in a time where so many people hide behind the fear of failing, of not being enough, of being judged. (Me, myself!)

But the truth is: no one came into this world to stay in silence, and there’s no perfection.. embrace being different (that brings uniqueness)💜

Art is not only music, painting or dance.
It is the way you think. The way you feel. The way you love, move, speak and exist.

Having the courage to express yourself is an act of freedom.
Even with fears, insecurities. Even without validation.

Because we are only here once 🙆🏽‍♀️
And maybe the greatest tragedy is to go through life without ever revealing who you truly are.

3rd of May 2026 - what a way to celebrate my birthday 💜

What started months ago in Paris, during a creative trip with .wual , evolved into something tangible, intentional, and deeply aligned. We went there to work on music and build a bridge between Lisbon and Paris. That connection now lives in Transnationality, the debut EP of .records .
The new label from .wual and 🎶 I’m very proud of you guys!! And honoured to be part of this beautiful project!

Actually, being part of this first release, alongside and , and having my track pressed on vinyl, marks a clear step in my path.

Distributed by and mastered by the great 🙏🏾💜

We brought it to life at Estufa Fria through an immersive audiovisual experience that invited people to move freely, to tune into the space, and to experience sound as something physical and collective. Props to .lisbon and , the environment expanded beyond music into a dialogue between sound, visuals, unfolding within the raw nature surrounding us 🌿

🪐projects grounded in intention, collaboration across borders, and a deeper connection between body, space, and sound.

Finally hands-on workshop on spatial sound for DJs and live artists with and plus support 🔗

This session focused on using Ableton Live together with the Ambrio Spatial Mixer as an active performance tool, moving beyond stereo towards real-time spatial control, was insanely good to feel it!

We tried with our USB on CDJ pioneer, directly with the Ambrio mixer inside a multi-speaker setup (14.1 setup), exploring practical workflows for moving and shaping sound in space while performing.

Things I want to explore and understanding movement as part of performance. Testing how spatialisation changes perception on the dancefloor 🌀

A valuable step in connecting DJ practice, live performance and spatial sound as a performative language 🙏🏾
Thank you team for this opportunity 🤌🏽💜

Sculpting space through sound 🪐

Between moves to another city, finishing a master and managing some travels, I’ve been shaping new ways of listening to myself, 16 speakers surrounding me, guiding how I compose and imagine the future of DJ performance.

This process marks the beginning of my PhD in Artistic Creation (Aveiro!), a long-term journey into spatial sound and immersive composition.

And I take this moment to share my upcoming track, out next Friday, Nov 21, on with my dearest and great singer

A continuous evolution 🌀 body, mind, space, and resonance.
