Music as a way of expression!
Djiu was born in Brazil in 1980 and since has been involved with music since very young age. At the age of 15 the interest in underground electronic music came up, especially house and techno. Having had the music research and DJing as a hobby since then, in 2000 he decided to move to Sao Paulo in the search for information and electronic music culture.

Always involved with promoters and DJs and constantly playing after parties, in 2003 Djiu started his first residency at Zatar Club Bar playing mostly house and tech house. Soon after that he started promoting his own parties with the first night at Lov.e Club (best Brazilian club at that time) kicking off his professional career.

A couple of years later he is invited to be the resident DJ of Cyberdog Club Brazil and at the same time promoting and playing his new project Electrify at Deep Club, a club which he also worked as artistic director.

Having played along with the best DJs at the best venues and clubs all over Brazil, in 2006 Djiu decided to move to London in the search for more information especially music production and party scene. Having absorbed the influence of many Europeans DJs and producers his music has evolved even more making a big impression on the dance floor.

His influences come from house and techno with a minimalist touch. His charisma and special taste and talent with a playful approach to mixing help create a great atmosphere with a special blend of quality tracks.

In London DJIU promoted his own parties called Zumbido along with local DJs taking the promotion to the best venues in the Shoreditch area. DJIU has played in several bars, clubs and boat parties in London and other cities in Europe like Ibiza, Nijmegen and Amsterdan. Now the DJ is moving to New York city to keep the ball rolling and do what he does best, make people dance and enjoy the music.
