Rafael Lopes, or CucaRafa is a DJ and music producer whose journey is shaped by a combination of music, creativity, hospitality, and a passion for bringing people together.
His path began with studying graphic design, developing a strong visual identity and creative approach that would later become an essential part of his musical career. Over time, he found a way to merge both worlds, taking full control of his artistic image, branding, communication, and self-promotion, building his project independently from the ground up.
Alongside his musical journey, CucaRafa has spent his professional life working in high-end restaurants and hotels, gaining extensive experience in the world of hospitality. This background has given him a deep understanding of service, atmosphere, detail, and the art of creating memorable experiences — values that naturally translate into his approach behind the decks.
As a DJ and producer, he has played across the world, bringing his sound to different audiences, venues, and cultures. His experience in both hospitality and music has shaped an adaptable, detail-oriented professional who understands that a great experience is about much more than just the music.
Now looking to transition into a remote position, CucaRafa aims to find a professional environment where he can continue developing his music production while contributing his skills, creativity, experience, and versatility to a team. Open-minded and adaptable, he is ready to help wherever needed, bring value in different areas, and take on new challenges while maintaining the flexibility to pursue his musical career.
