Background
Returning to Brazil after years spent in the Netherlands, I decided to show my passion for techno music and a desire to make a difference. Teaming up with two producer friends, we embarked on a movement to introduce a fresh perspective to the night scene of Rio de Janeiro. As a designer for the Brazil Music Conference, I had the perfect platform to showcase my vision. Together, we launched Kode, a project dedicated to redefining Techno culture in a city where it had yet to fully flourish.01. -
