What started in 2008 as tinkering in a bedroom in a tiny Brazilian city in the middle of nowhere has now led him to play to sold-out crowds of 30000 people at his own So Track Boa Festival, touring the United States, gracing the cover of Rolling Stone Magazine, making the Forbes 30 Under 30 list and going multi-platinum with more than 2 billion global online streams.

For Lukas Ruiz, Vintage Culture is a 24-hour responsibility. A passion project that aims to unite people through music. He is someone constantly eating away at traditional genre boundaries as he makes music that works both in the club and at home. Vintage Culture produces soundtracks to people’s lives. Music with emotion, narrative and melodic hooks as well as infectious grooves.

All this comes after impressive remixes of the likes of Meduza, Moby, Diplo, David Guetta & Sia, and collaborations with artists including Jorja Smith. Many Vintage Culture releases have been certified Platinum, and he has topped the Billboard Hot Dance, Spotify Dance and Beatport Main Overall Charts multiple times.

As a DJ, Vintage Culture has the ability to connect with each and every dancer, whether playing to hundreds in a club or thousands on a festival main stage. He prefers to go long so he can really dig deep into his collection, and loves sunset or sundown sets so he can create those extra special, spine-tingling moments of real musical magic. “I’m a vibe connector,” he says with a smile.
