EGE.218 Madd Rod

Madd Rod's (@maddrod) curiosity has made the artist explore different soundscapes while finding his musical identity. A constant search for his sound helped him find himself and led him to the realization that music is more than an assembling of sounds: it is a reminder of the experiences he has lived through it.

Rodrigo was born in Lisbon and raised in its outskirts, inevitably influenced by this intriguing melting pot. His music granted him long residencies and performances in some of the most respected venues of Portugal, but also abroad, not being a surprise to suddenly find him playing in Greece, Germany, France, or Brasil.

Having had a prolific output for years, the artist had to create a safe home for his productions, having founded Inner Shah Recordings, which now releases artists from all over the world.

His growing catalog of over 100 original tracks and remixes has granted him releases on labels like Discotexas, Harabe, or RYNTH.

The artist is currently based in Berlin and working on his second studio album.

Disco Suicide Mix Series 046 - Madd Rod

Insane vibes down south at Locals Only 3rd Anniversary. It was a pleasure to handle the closing of this beautiful ceremony, showing some of my current favorite tracks as well as some oldies. From Italo Disco to EBM, passing through Indie Dance and Dark Disco.

As I heard someone say: "the vibe was so good that the power went down". I prefer this justification than someone's drink hitting an electric circuit...

Madd Rod @ Locals Only 3rd Anniversary - 25.09.2022

Madd Rod's vision of music comes from his early-developed curiosity, which has made the artist explore multiple soundscapes while pursuing his North Star. For him, music is much more than an assembling of sounds: it is an enduring reminder of the experiences he has lived through it.

Rodrigo was born in Lisbon and raised in its outskirts, inevitably influenced by its intriguing melting pot. The cultural mess of the city had a profound impact on his music, blending a fresh technological sound design with traditional elements from ancient cultures.

In 2017, after releasing on Deeplomatic, he moved to the south of Germany, where he took a deeper dive into music production. There, he launched his record label, Inner Shah, and found a receptive crowd with whom he could field-test his tracks.

In 2019, Madd Rod achieved new milestones which motivated him to go further: a few international gigs, and the start of his three-summer residency at The Lounge Vale do Lobo — where he played extended sets, building from Downtempo to Techno.

After the busy summer, Madd Rod went on his first short tour, during which he started producing the first tracks of his album — the stops were Lisbon, Berlin, Tübingen, and Paris.

In 2020, Rodrigo took over the label management of VIAGE, where he released several EPs. His first album, "Dystopian Desert", was released on Inner Shah on July 31st of the same year.

In 2021 he maintained a prolific output, releasing 18 new original tracks and nine remixes and curating three compilations for Inner Shah. Highlights of the year include his chart-topper remix of Devran by SIS, the Shaman Call EP on Harabe, and "Rumors", Madd Rod's first EP on Discotexas.

In 2022, he moved to Berlin and music took him further with his first Hollywood synchronization as well as debuting performances in Greece and Brazil, followed by his first tour in India.

Madd Rod @ Sónar Lisboa - 01.04.2023

For this month’s @relativaradio Show, I have invited Portuguese powerhouse @MaddRod for a guest mix. After moving from Lisbon to Berlin he has quickly become a prevalent name on lineups in the German capital and on dance floors across Europe.

RADONDO w/ MADD ROD - Radio Relativa 04/05/2023

Welcome back to the Magician On Duty Journey Series!

On this edition we welcome Madd Rod (@maddrod)

Madd Rod is an electronic music rebel whose passion for his craft stems from an inextinguishable curiosity and an affair with the cultural diversity around him. 

Born and raised in Lisbon, he was from a young age influenced by the blend of traditional and modern elements he found within the city.

In this mix, he confronts the need to tame ambiguous poles of his persona: allowing the alter ego and the man to coexist and engage together in a (re)visit to the past — through the future. 

Committed to the desire to break all rules, Madd Rod takes the role of the narrator, turning the obscure and the wild into parts of an urban myth.

I hope you will enjoy this journey as much as I did!

Madd Rod @ Inner Shah Takeover, Renate, Berlin - 22.06.2024

While cleaning my hdd, I came across the recording of my warm up and closing sets from almost one year ago at Central, on a lovely night with DJ Tennis. It's been ages since I posted a club set so thought of posting this snippet from the last hour.

Felt cute - might delete later 🙃

Madd Rod (closing set - snippet) @ Central Club, Porto - 30.04.2024

Yesterday I played one of my favourite sets ever - definitely not perfect, but the energy in the room was wild. Played new and old tunes, from tracks from 1979 to tracks yet to be released. The smiles, the shouts of happiness, and the connection in the room that reminds us we are still human, and that clubbing is still a way to escape our day to day routines. Sadly club culture is at risk, and this was probably my last set at Renate as this legendary institution is set to close its doors soon, but I'll bring this and many other nights there in my memory for life.

Thank you for reminding me what this is all about <3

ISR Off-Stage 001: Madd Rod

Pour ce numéro 169, entre rythmes et notes, @maddrod incarne la curiosité qui sommeille en Rodrigo Pinheiro (c'est son vrai nom). Originaire de Lisbonne, DJ, producteur et directeur d'Inner Shah Recordings, il défie les frontières entre les genres de la musique électronique grâce à une approche à la fois nostalgique et avant-gardiste. Installé à Berlin depuis 2022, il a redécouvert son identité à travers un son rétrofuturiste qui a culminé avec son deuxième album studio, Sad Behaviour (2023) – une plongée robuste, punk et intime dans le passé, tournée vers l'avenir. Après sa sortie, il a passé un court séjour au Portugal, renouant avec la scène club du pays, créant sa série d'événements, Panthera, et travaillant sur Sad Behaviour: Expanded Edition (2024), qui a ajouté quatre nouveaux singles à l'album.
Son dernier album, l'EP Make You Sweat, sorti sur Inner Shah en février 2025, prouve qu'il maîtrise parfaitement la recette de ce mélange de genres. Rétro, brut et implacable, son son donne le pouls du mouvement.
