Liu

DJ Mag TOP100 DJ's #79 LIU

From: São Paulo, Brazil

DJ style: “Uplifting, dynamic, flexible.”

Best known for: “Big songs like ‘All I Want’ and ‘Coastline’, viral content performing, big festival performances.”

Last year, on entering the Top 100 DJs list for the first time, Liu described his sound as “dance music to make people feel better.” In 2024, the Chinese-Brazilian DJ brought more of those feel-good vibes to the masses, embarking on his biggest tours yet across Brazil, Asia and Europe, including a return to the legendary Ushuaïa Ibiza for a second year running, as part of Martin Garrix’s summer residency. His pumping, big room and future house selections are tailor-made for these kinds of huge stages and, when paired with his insatiable energy in the booth, mean it’s no surprise he’s climbed 19 places since last year’s poll.

Liu has also been putting in the work in the studio. In February, he teamed up with Juicce to release ‘Hello’, a huge future house heater with a dial tone-inspired drop, before putting out a parade of bangers with Khouri & Schillist, Alex O’Clock, Haro Mc, Zuffo, CAKES and Tristan Henry over the summer. Despite this mounting success, Liu tells DJ Mag how he’s always trying to level up. “In my free time, I’ve been trying to learn new languages to communicate better on the tours and also listening to a lot of new music so I can improve my sets every day.”
