Rui Da Silva In Truro

Old Bakery Studios, Truro

On 30th November 2024, Truro will host a notable dance music event featuring Rui Da Silva at the Old Bakery Studios. Rui Da Silva is a prominent figure in the electronic dance music scene, known for his work as a DJ, producer, and songwriter. His track 'Touch Me' has become a classic in the genre, achieving significant popularity among DJs and listeners alike, and has inspired numerous remixes over the years. This event will provide an opportunity for attendees to experience his influential music firsthand.

What the organisers say

Known for Underground Sound Of Lisbon and his iconic track "Touch Me", we bring you one of Portugal’s greatest musical exports. Rui has earned his place as one of the best tribal/progressive-house producers in the world.


As a DJ, producer, and songwriter, Rui Da Silva is synonymous with pure electronic dance music. He has uniquely combined genuine underground respect with commercial success.

His talent has taken him to destinations across the globe, including Dubai, Colombia, Albania, Russia, Australia, Singapore, Germany, Greece, and the U.S. He has performed at world-renowned nightclubs and festivals such as:

Space (Ibiza), Ushuaia (Ibiza), Ministry Of Sound (UK), Cream (Liverpool), Rock In Rio (Portugal), DC10 (Ibiza) & Exit Festival (Serbia).

As Pete Tong aptly introduced him on his Essential Mix for BBC Radio 1: “One of the most acclaimed and strangely un-sung DJ producers in the world.”

We explore the thoughts of artists and music sharing. In today's digital age, discovering new music has become more accessible than ever due to online platforms like Spotify, SoundCloud, and download services such as Beatport. While traditional methods of exploring music, such as visiting record shops, have diminished in popularity, the process of musical exploration remains significant and enriching, especially when one encounters a standout track. For performing artists, the quest for fresh music is a continuous endeavor, often regarded as equally important as the performance itself. This raises an interesting question: is it appropriate for artists to keep the details of their music sources confidential? This topic invites further discussion from some of the South West DJs and producers on the nature of music discovery in the modern landscape.
