It all began in Detroit. No, seriously: “Detroit” was the first EP ever created by Marcos Benedetti, the young man from São Paulo whose dream of becoming an architect gave way to another dream, consisting on architecting quality electronic music under the creative alias “Volkoder”.“Detroit” hit the Bull's eye, for it was charted by artists from the likes of Jamie Jones, and played all over the world by Lee Foss, Catz’n Dogz, Sandy Rivera, Joyce Muniz, Tube & Berger, Digitaria, Patrick Topping and many others. Not bad for a first timer.After this tremendous success, Volkoder released “Tell Me More” on german label Kittball Records, and the positive reactions led to the "People House" EP, released in January 2014. After this great first impression, Volkoder was invited to work on remixes for musicians hungry for his fresh touch: Guy Gerber, Kerri Chandler, Dennis Ferrer, Nathan Barato and Tiger Stripes were some of them.It has been a great year so far. Since January, Volkoder has signed with massive labels like Hot Creations, Toolroom, Suara, Kittball, Snatch! Records and Material, and DJs from the likes of Carl Cox, Jamie Jones, Marco Carola, Claude Vonstroke and Nic Fanciulli have been playing his hot tracks throughout the summer. No wonder, for the tracks are easily found: the "wonder kid" featured 15 tracks on the Beatport TOP100 this year.And the best news is that there’s much more to come.
