My first passion was dancing, being involved with various classes, and a squad dancing for Kent until my teens. I have a thirst for all kinds of music, paying close attention to the likes of Annie Mac, Claptone, Above & Beyond, and well anyone I had the pleasure to catch live.
I started to follow my dream in May 2019, recording my first mix after returning from Defected Croatia that year. I've been building in momentum ever since. Producing mixes, which span various styles of House, Disco, and any wild cards I happen to find.

Icaro Mana is a talented DJ and producer from Brazil who draws inspiration from house music, especially deep house, always seeking nuances from other genres like soul, disco, funk, and jazz.

With his dedication, talent, and creativity, Icaro Mana is definitely an artist to watch in the electronic music scene.

1990-2005: Full-Time Open Format DJ  
From the wild ride of the 90s to mid-2000s, I lived and breathed the DJ life, spinning tracks that lit up dance floors. Now, I’m still in the game—but with a refined edge and a move away from the commercial hustle.

Today’s Groove:
I craft sets that blend Funk, Groove, Soul, Hip-Hop, House, Nu Disco, Latin, Jazz, Soul, and Slow Jams into a seamless flow of sound. It’s about creating an atmosphere, telling a story, and delivering a vibe that resonates.

Perspective:
Out of 7.888 billion people, the fact that you’ve landed here feels like a small miracle. Thanks for taking a moment to tune in and share the music journey...
