Over the past five years, DJ Damost made a decision that changed not only his career but also his relationship with music: he decided to play exclusively Mozambican music in his sets. This radical choice was a turning point in the DJ's professional life, who previously performed between 80 and 100 shows a year, playing a variety of musical styles.
Initially, this change wasn't well received by the public. DJ Damost recalls even being booed on a few occasions. However, he stood firm in his decision, confident that the future held promising results. And he was right. Currently, DJ Damost performs around 420 shows a year, a notable increase compared to the past.
“For the past 5 years, because of my audacity, I've been doing at least 420 shows a year. I don't have time, I'm a person who's always short on time,” shared DJ Damost, reflecting on his journey over the last few years. His dedication to Mozambican music has not only put him in the spotlight but has also made him a passionate advocate for the country's musical culture.
DJ Damost's decision to prioritize Mozambican music in his performances has not only increased his visibility and professional success, but has also had a significant impact on the local music scene. By highlighting local artists and promoting national talent, he not only elevates Mozambican music, but also strengthens the country's cultural identity.
DJ Damost is an inspiring example of how a courageous decision, committed to cultural values, can transform not only a career but also an artistic community. His story is a powerful reminder of the power of passion and determination in the pursuit of success and personal fulfillment.
