“The Twelves”: João Miguel and Luciano Oliveira from Rio de Janeiro, Brasil, born on the same dates: "12^th"July 1980. The breakthrough for The Twelves came in July of 2007 when they remixed the track “Boyz” from M.I.A’s sophomore album, Kala. The duo followed “Boyz” with equally well-received remixes for Asobi Seksu and Erlend Oye. This stream of good tracks soon caught the attention of a number of labels, including Modular Records (home of Cut Copy, Klaxons and others) who comissioned a “Twelves” remix of the song “Get Lucky” by New Young Pony club. The resulting remix was released alongside reworkings from household names like MSTRKRFT and Who Made Who, and received excellent reviews.
The sound of the duo brings influences from many genres. Among the most influential to their sound are Daft Punk, Justice, Royksopp, Vitalic, Simian Mobile Disco, MSTRKRFT, Clor, Cut Copy and Goldfrapp. Their live show is a unique blend of live keyboards, drum machines, mash-ups and remixing on the fly. Always trying to improvise as much as possible.

Anyways here's something I should have informed you earlier about.. Sebastiaan Vandevoorde who we know as Seba from Villa started his own project. Moonlight Matters!!! And although I've heard two of his mixes before it didn't wake me up until I received a fb-request from Sebastiaan still no clue but the profile picture was quiet familiar...

Between worldwide touring and constant studio work - and while refusing to give up a career in neurology and astronomy research - he also helped to found Discotexas, a record label and collective of artists from sunny Lisbon which curate a monthly night in Lux, one of the most sought-after clubs in Europe with the Biggest Discobal I ever saw.
