Vintage Culture is a machine. The Brazilian has one of the busiest tour diaries of anyone in the scene — including new residencies in Ibiza and Las Vegas this summer. He says they taught him to “never give up on your dreams.” He has continued to put out a lot of music in a steady stream and again showed that he likes to play for many, many hours. “I did a 24-hour show in Brazil at a club called Privilege Búzios and it is turning into an annual event,” he says. ”The stage is my favourite place to be. This is where I’m totally myself.”

In amongst the sets and the parties, Vintage Culture has found time to evolve his sound and promises lots of surprises in 2023, including collaborations with music legends who have inspired him and talented artists on their way up. “My focus will always be on great songs”, he says. “Underneath the production, there must be a strong melody and lyric.”
