    the whole biography
    Hailing from Rio de Janeiro and now firmly rooted in Brooklyn, Deo’Jorge is a multifaceted DJ, music producer, and event curator who has reshaped dance music communities across two continents. From his early days designing and directing art campaigns for major brands in Brazil to becoming the driving force behind influential nightlife movements, Deo’s journey has always been fueled by a relentless passion for authenticity and connection. In Brazil, Deo co-founded O/NDA, a groundbreaking free-party collective celebrated for reclaiming public spaces in Rio and creating a safe, inclusive environment at a massive scale. Initially a spontaneous birthday gathering, O/NDA quickly evolved into a vibrant cultural movement drawing thousands of people into the city’s underused and iconic locations. After moving to New York in 2017, Deo launched Hot Honey Sundays, initially a low-key, bring-your-own-beer event on the Greenpoint waterfront. It rapidly became one of Brooklyn’s favorite dance gatherings, attracting both legendary artists and emerging local talent. Over the past five years, Hot Honey Sundays has filled iconic venues including Knockdown Center, Brooklyn Mirage, and Elsewhere, returning now to Greenpoint in partnership with BK Backyard to reignite the neighborhood’s creative legacy. Known for his dynamic sets, Deo effortlessly weaves together deep house, soulful grooves, Latin rhythms, and sharp electronic textures, always keeping the energy fresh and dancefloors packed. His monthly residency at Dead Letter further solidifies his reputation as a tastemaker with a genuine connection to the crowd. Driven by community, diversity, and a sharp critique of commercialization in nightlife, Deo remains deeply committed to keeping music accessible, joyful, and meaningful. Whether behind the decks or orchestrating an event, Deo’Jorge creates experiences rooted in authenticity, spontaneity, and pure dancefloor magic.
