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 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 Secret Room, Above 11, 24 Floor, Tasca, Netsu, and the Mandarin Oriental, among other venues. She has also played at global brand events for BMW, Sephora, Tommy, and many others.
Since she started her radio show on Ibiza Stardust Radio, her show is among the most listened to.
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 released track, Closer, Sirup Music, defies expectations and pushes the boundaries of electronic music through a genius Tech House beat. With its intricate rhythms and driving bassline, this track is a true dancefloor destroyer that will keep you moving all night long. The driving melodies and expertly crafted sound design draw you in, inviting you to lose yourself in the music and forget the world outside.
Whether you're a fan of underground house music or simply looking for a fresh and exciting sound, "Closer" is sure to leave a lasting impression.
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.

I had the absolute pleasure of experiencing DJ Lu’s exceptional performance at the after party for the opening night of Hamilton in Abu Dhabi, and I cannot recommend her highly enough.
From the moment DJ Lu took control of the decks, she immediately set the perfect tone for the evening. Her ability to read the crowd and seamlessly blend a wide range of genres ensured that the energy remained electric throughout the night. It’s not every day that you encounter a DJ who can maintain such an incredible vibe for hours, and DJ Lu did so effortlessly.
The feedback from the audience was overwhelmingly positive, with many remarking on how she perfectly matched the energy of Hamilton's revolutionary spirit and infused the night with an infectious rhythm that had everyone on their feet. Her expert curation of music kept the party going long into the night and solidified what was, without question, the best opening night for the Hamilton international tour.
DJ Lu truly went above and beyond, creating an unforgettable experience for all in attendance. Her energy, professionalism, and talent make her a standout DJ, and I would wholeheartedly recommend her for any event.
