Torres was kind enough to spend some time talking with us about his experience making the film, how the strikes delayed the release, working opposite the brilliant Academy Award-winning actress Tilda Swinton, and more. Please be sure to check out the film, which is now playing in theaters from A24. Thank you, and enjoy!

With over two decades shaping Brazil’s electronic music scene, Julio Torres stands as a key figure in the industry. His career began in the early 90s, at a time when São Paulo’s underground scene was gaining momentum, and his pioneering approach to production and DJing quickly set him apart.

A versatile artist, Julio Torres gained international recognition after signing with Hook Recordings, with his track Feel The Groove earning a spot on Space Ibiza’s annual compilation. His reputation grew further with performances on the island, solidifying his place among electronic music’s elite.

Back home, he played a pivotal role in the expansion of Brazil’s electronic scene, from his long-standing residency at D-Edge to multiple performances at Skol Beats, sharing stages with legends like Basement Jaxx, Danny Howells, and Hernán Cattáneo.

Beyond his solo career, Torres co-founded Crossover, a groundbreaking project blending electronic music with live violin, leading to performances at Rock in Rio, Ultra Music Festival, and a support act for The Black Eyed Peas. The project later evolved into Dexterz, integrating live drums into the mix and reaching mainstream audiences through TV performances and award-winning releases.

With residencies at Green Valley 5 times #1 club in the world by DJ Mag and an ever-evolving sound that seamlessly fuses classics with the latest club anthems, Julio Torres remains a driving force in Brazil’s electronic scene.
