Tell me a bit of how your path in music started back in the country side of Sao Paulo. Was it something you found it yourself or it had some influence from friends?
Back in 2009 I was in a party with some old music friends (Leandro e Gustavo) and I remember they were discussing how H2O did his music back then and I was intrigued that this could be done in a computer and even after the party I couldn’t get this off my mind, so I reached out to Leandro and he introduced me to Fruit Loops and started making Hip Hop, working on some projects with MCs and there I had my first experience as a DJ. After that, I started making my own beats and starting releasing some tracks as “Lucks”. Years later while visiting São Paulo we decided to bring to Taubaté the kind of street/public parties we saw there, so we got together and created Techno Na Rua, a free, public event that happened every month, which had 13 editions between 2016-17, bringing something never seen before in the city.
Having such a great background in music throughout all these years producing from rap beats, deep-house, all kinds of techno and now your dreamy hard techno. What are your favorite elements in music and do you always use them?
My favorite element is the melody itself and the emotion it brings as the music goes. However, I don’t always use it because not all tracks have the same pathway.
Would you agree that it is very important to learn, study, understand old music and music history to become a great producer/artist?
Yes, I think that it is extremely important to have this knowledge and to research, mostly because most part of the inspiration comes from the artists that started it all.
You have been managing a label for a long time and 2 years ago created ‘’Pathless Records’’ which recently have been getting attention with all the great releases. What is the idea behind your ‘’Pathless Records’’ and what led you to start it?
Besides being the head behind Pathless, I am still a producer and I know the importance of releasing and launching an artist, to be able to give a clear view and have an honest relationship with them and to be able to work with new artists who’ve been catching our attention.
Which of your releases are you most proud of and if you could collaborate with any artist, who would it be and why?
My proudest release will have to be Tsukuyomi, I made that during the pandemic, while having many different feelings while producing it, probably that’s why it is the most different track that I made. And it made me very proud because of the outcome it had, being the most successful one. If I could work with any artist, it would be Hans Zimmer. I have always been an admirer of movies soundtracks and he’s the pioneer of this kind of work.
Ability to fly or invisibility?
Funny question, for sure I would rather have the ability to fly. It is probably an amazing feeling, having the freedom to fly.
Tell me a bit about your mix. What can we expect from it?
Lucas: My mix is all about my recent searches, promos that I have received from other artists, unreleased tracks from Pathless, my own unreleased songs or from friends of mine.
