Lu Candotta's love for music began at a young age. She launched her DJ career at São Paulo Fashion Week, where she created her own music event and has now been DJing successfully for nine years. She prefers to play melodic techno, techno, tech house, and house – genres that move her the most.
After playing at major gay clubs in São Paulo, Lu went on to perform at well-known clubs like Club Yacht, Lions, Cine Joia, and Club 88 (Campinas). Her biggest achievement to date was playing for an audience of 800,000 people at Agrada Gregos during São Paulo Carnival.
Now based in Dubai, Lu has quickly established herself as a prominent DJ, playing at Baby Q, Knox, Netsu, and the Mandarin Oriental, among other venues. She has also played at global brand events for BMW, Sephora, Tommy, and many others.
Lu's passion for music extends beyond just playing it. She has also produced her own tracks, first inspired to bring comfort during the pandemic. Her first release, Into My Soul on the Tratore label, was followed by Entropy, which she co-produced with Ed Lopes on One Million Records. Her soon-to-be-released track, Closer, is highly anticipated, and she is now working on several other exciting releases for 2023.
For Lu, music is all about connecting people and bringing happiness to their lives. She always reads the crowd's mood and responds with techniques like beatmatching, EQ mixing, and creative transitions to maintain the energy on the dance floor and keep people dancing all night long. Lu's dedication to her craft and love for music is evident in every performance she delivers.
