DJ VIBE

DJ Vibe started mixing early. It was back in 1983 that António "Tó" Pereira got his first ever club gig at Lisbon’s Bataclan spot.
... So in the 80’s he was helping his Father at his Lisbon downtown record shop, a vital place for all the Djs to get the most recent imported 12"s vinyl records. Since then DJ Vibe has been involved in all kinds of music activities from DJiing to Production as well as playing live on Portuguese Band LX 90 or remixing other Artists. Considered by everyone the most sought after and well known of the Portuguese Djs, Vibe had been also involved in the launch of the most important Clubs in Portugal in the last 20 years. Back to the 80's, he was invited to open club Plateau in Lisbon (1985/1986) a venue that would change Lisbon nightlife.

In 1988 DJ Vibe was once again invited to open the legendary Lisbon Club Alcântara Mar. Vibe was also caught in London at the time by the Acidhouse Explosion and the music changes happening there. Tracks from Artists like "Phuture", "Adonis", and "Fast Eddie" were first introduced in Portugal at the time. Classic and unforgettable moments at this Club when, in the middle of the night, he dropped stuff like Nina Simone "My baby just care for me", Nina Hagen "African Reggae" and Eric B and Rakim "Paid in Full", to finish later in the morning with the new more progressive sounds.

Still in 1988´s known as "Summer of Love" Vibe joins the Kremlin club in Lisbon where he played his longest ever residency. Nearly 7 years. Kremlin worked every night of the week except Sundays with DJ Vibe playing all night long. His love for the marathon sets probably started there. Muzik Magazine UK first edition named DJ Vibe and the Kremlin “A Paradise Called Portugal". His excellent mixing ability and style playing a wide range of Dance Music with his set had made him unique!

In the beginning of the 90's Vibe joins Portuguese Indie/Pop/Rock band LX90, where he played the guitar and live samplers. Underground Sound of Lisbon production project is also launched with Rui Da Silva. USL had their smash hit “So Get Up” reach #1 in specialized charts around the World selling over 40.000 singles, and more than a million on compilations with Tribal America Records. Soon they had their stuff remixed by some of the most notorious Djs such as Danny Tenaglia and Junior Vasquez. Vibe, Tenaglia and Da Silva then cooperate on the NYLX project with vocals from Lula to produce the track "Goosebumps" in 1996. USL single "Are you looking 4 me (in the backroom)" introducing Celeda, bumped right into #35 at US "Billboard" Chart (March 1998) and won a position among the 75 singles of the year (1998) chosen by British Muzik Magazine in 2000. USL single "The lights" was considered one of Miami's top 10 tunes by UK DJMag and UK DJMixmag voted it single of the April edition. In 2004, Yoko Ono was #1 on the “Billboard” Dance Chart with the DJ Vibe’s remix “Everyman...Everywoman”.

After four years in a row entering the DJMag Top100 Chart, DJ Vibe achieved the 40th place in the 2007 edition.

At the studio work, DJ Vibe “Global Grooves” was a CD's trilogy on Kaos Records which sold more then 45,000 copies just in Portugal.
Other releases include “You”, with Underground Sound of Lisbon vocalist Ithaka, a cooperation with Victor Calderone produced "Tranzient" and "Muzik" and so many more.
