About Me


DJ Plasma is from Portugal, he started djing back in 1993, hosting matinees in his home town, where he played some electronic tunes that sound really weird to those who used to show up back on the days. Stuff like Snap and KLF where anything but easy listening at that time. His passion for dance music goes even back, when in 1989 he heard for the first time Technotronic's all time classic "Pump Up the Jam", and something really new made his brain pump.
In 1997, alongside DJ MJ, under the name Phunkadicts, brings up his first record, also portuguese Lupeca Records debut e.p.. Roger Sanchez, among others, has send a positive feedback about the record. He has played in some clubs in Portugal, mostly in Algarve, alongside with Alan Russel, John Acquaviva, Nuno Cacho, Stereosoldiers and Rob di Stefano.
He recently worked with Stereosoldiers on their self named E.P. "Stereosoldiers" (Harlequin Recordings), giving his voice to the track "Blunt".
He recently graduated from SAE Institute in Amsterdam, with a Diploma in Audio Engineering, and he's already doing some work on that area in local studios in the Algarve. He also just finished his own Home Studio and whenever possible he's in front of the computer producing what might soon become his first solo release. Aside from music, he's also a literature finalist at Universidade Nova, in Lisbon. And he's more and more in love with dance music.
Keep looking, you might meet him some day!
VERSÃO PORTUGUESA: DJ Plasma começou a tocar em 1993, como residente em matinés, onde passava temas electrónicos que soavam de forma estranha aos que frequentavam o espaço nessa altura. Projectos como Snap ou KLF eram tudo menos comuns naquela altura. A sua paixão pela dance music remonta ainda mais atrás, quando em 1989 ouviu pela primeira vez o clássico "Pump up the Jam", dos Technotronic, e algo de realmente novo fez vibrar a sua mente.
Em 1997, em parceria com DJ MJ, sob o nome Phunkadicts, lança o seu primeiro disco, também disco de estreia da editora portuguesa Lupeca Records. Roger Sanchez, entre outros, teceu comentários positivos sobre o disco. Já tocou em alguns clubes portugueses, em especial no Algarve, com nomes como Alan Russel, John Acquaviva, Nuno Cacho, Stereosoldiers e Rob di Stefano.
Recentemente colaborou com a dupla Stereosoldiers no E.P. editado pela Harlequin Recordings, dando a voz à faixa "Blunt".
Recentemente terminou o curso de Técnico de Som (Audio Engineering) no SAE Institute de Amsterdão, tendo obtido o Diploma de curso, e está já a trabalhar na área nalguns estúdios do Algarve.
Tem desde o início de 2009 o seu próprio Home Studio, e sempre que possível está em frente ao computador a produzir o que poderá ser, em breve, o seu primeiro disco a solo.
Para além da música, é também estudante finalista de literatura, na Universidade Nova, em Lisboa.
E está cada vez mais apaixonado pela dance music.
Estejam atentos, pode ser que o encontrem algum dia!
