Music, Sets & Classes
How I think about the dance floor, the BPM range I usually play, and the classes I teach.
In my own sets, I often move around 65 to 82 BPM. In real dance-floor practice, a lot of strong Brazilian Zouk music sits around 70 to 85 BPM, with a broader range that can be roughly 60 to 95 BPM. BPM helps, but it is not the whole answer: phrasing, energy, floor comfort, and emotional continuity matter too. For a broader explanation, see the Encyclopedia: https://djzeneyer.com/zouk-encyclopedia/zouk-bpm.
I have a broad repertoire inside Brazilian Zouk. I usually look for cremosidade, creating a fluid and connected dance floor, but I can also bring more energy and emphasize the beat when the moment asks for it. The set has to serve the floor, not a fixed idea of style.
No. Cremosidade is a word used by the community to describe a smooth, fluid, pleasurable feeling in the dance. I love that idea and often look for that texture in my sets, but I did not create the term or the feeling.
Yes. I teach DJing, music production, and musicality. Classes can be for DJs, dancers, producers, teachers, or anyone who wants to understand better how music works on a Brazilian Zouk dance floor.
Yes. Dancers, teachers, and events can use my music in dance videos and community content. For larger commercial uses, brand campaigns, or specific licensing needs, contact me by email or WhatsApp so we can align it properly.
Booking & Events
Practical information for organizers, festivals, socials, classes, and music projects.
I play at Brazilian Zouk congresses, festivals, marathons, socials, and private events. To book me, write by official email or WhatsApp with the city, date, event format, and what you imagine for the dance floor.
Yes. I have played Brazilian Zouk events in 14 countries across 4 continents, and I am open to discussing events in Brazil or abroad. The most important part is understanding the format, the local community, and the kind of experience the event wants to create.
Congresses, festivals, marathons, socials, private events, DJ classes, music production classes, musicality classes, and Brazilian Zouk music projects. If the idea involves dance floor, music, and connection, it is worth reaching out.
I try to read the floor calmly: create continuity, make room for connection, bring creamy moments, and also raise the energy when the room asks for it. The priority is for people to leave feeling they lived a musical, pleasant, and well-cared-for moment.

Zen Tribe & Community
Belonging, dance floor, music use, and how I see the Brazilian Zouk community.
The Zen Tribe is a community for people who feel the dance floor can be more human, musical, and connected. Joining does not require paying, proving anything, or doing anything specific. You can simply stay close, enjoy the good moments, and, if you want, subscribe to receive music, events, behind-the-scenes notes, and updates with more calm.
No. The main idea is belonging. Anyone who wants to support by buying something, donating, attending events, using my music, or helping the work spread is very welcome, but that is not required to be part of the community.
Yes, and the main one is consent and care. It is a close connection dance with head movements. Leading needs to be safe, pleasant, and never forced. The best floor is one where everyone respects each other, invites different people to dance, and shares smiles.
The most direct way is to join the Zen Tribe or follow the music, events, and releases pages on the website. That way you can hear about releases, parties, content, and updates without depending only on social media algorithms.
