This week’s ‘Mix of the Week’ spotlights the vibrant sounds of Camila Soares, better known as CAMZ. Born in Brazil and currently rocking the London scene, CAMZ’s journey in music is a tale of passion and relentless pursuit of rhythm.
From a young age, CAMZ found herself enthralled by the arts. A 90s dance music introduction by her aunt led to an early obsession with vinyl, with tracks like The Bucketheads’ “The Bomb” becoming staples in her childhood. These early influences planted the seeds for what would become a dynamic DJ career.
CAMZ’s musical journey took her across the globe, living in cities like LA and Sydney before settling in London. Here, she founded 7 Times Digital, allowing her to rub shoulders with electronic music’s elite. Her global travels and exposure to diverse cultures have deeply influenced her sound, leading to a unique blend of Latin-infused House, Urban, and Breakbeats.
Her recent releases, including “Medo Deemen” with V.A.M.O and “SAUDADE” on Nervous Records, have made waves, receiving airplay from BBC Radio 1’s Jaguar and Jeremiah Asiamah. These tracks, alongside others, skyrocketed to the top of the charts on Beatport and Traxsource, catching the attention of industry giants like Black Coffee and Jamie Jones.
CAMZ’s presence in the club scene is nothing short of impressive, having played in renowned venues like E1 London, D EDGE, and Ministry Of Sound. Sharing lineups with Nicole Moudaber and Ida Engberg, among others, she’s stamped her mark as a force to be reckoned with.
2023 is poised to be a monumental year for CAMZ. Her upcoming EP “RESPEITA AS MINA” is set for release on Jamie Jones’ HOTTRAX this summer, promising to elevate her status even further in the tech house world.
