Antdot

A Brazilian pulse for global afro house

Between organic percussion, expansive melodies, and Portuguese vocals, Antdot has built an identity that connects Brazilian electronic music with the international afro house circuit. His language combines melodic house, organic house, and progressive house with rhythmic references to samba, baião, and Brazilian popular music, a blend that has allowed him to move naturally between clubs, festivals, and global listening platforms.

From rap beats to his own electronic signature

Originally from Joinville, in Santa Catarina, he began working on production from a studio culture close to rap and experimental music before consolidating the Antdot project in 2015. His early stage placed him in the environment of progressive house, deep house, and melodic house, with releases such as Let U Go and Take Me Away with Meca, Dawn with Joy Corporation, Chemicals with Reezer, and EPs like Mirrors and Walking In The Clouds. That foundation gave him a melodic and emotional reading of the dancefloor, which would later open up toward a more marked Brazilian-rooted sound.

Dawn Patrol as an expansion platform

The artistic and business alliance with Maz gave shape to Dawn Patrol Records, a label founded in 2020 that has become a creative, event, and release platform for a new generation of Brazilian electronic music. Together with Maz, Antdot took that universe to prominent positions on Beatport with productions and collaborations such as Povoada, Corpo e Canção, Learning To Love, and Jolie Fille, reinforcing an aesthetic where afro grooves, warm harmonies, and Brazilian song coexist with club production oriented toward large-scale formats.

High-impact stages

His international growth was consolidated with performances at Tomorrowland Belgium, including the opening of the mainstage alongside Maz and his appearance at Crystal Garden, as well as appearances at Hï Ibiza, CORE Medellín, Cercle, Green Valley, Laroc Club, Warung Beach Club, Tomorrowland Brasil, Rock in Rio, and Planeta Brasil. Support from artists like Keinemusik, CamelPhat, Stephan Jolk, and Vintage Culture placed his productions in a global circuit without disconnecting them from their Brazilian accent. Currently, Antdot functions as one of the key names in afro house made in Brazil: a producer with a recognizable identity, a selector of melodic energy, and a central piece of the Dawn Patrol ecosystem.
