  • For those who dont know, WANKALA is a word to refer the “Olden Days” or “When people lived a more traditional life” - in A Grammar of (Western) Garrwa; It’s a way of life…his way of life!!!
    Born in Africa and raised in Europe, Rui Gaudêncio starts showing his music passion in the early age of nine by collecting 80’s and 90’s records, influenced by artists like Depeche Mode; Duran Duran; INXS; David Bowie; and many more. In 2005 the electronic music movement starts in his life, by the hand of Michael Mayer - Kompakt, the first of many performances he had the opportunity to follow; In 2007 Rui was invited to join Minimaland, the best minimal-electronic music blog in Portugal, as a blogger, and after two years he decided the creation of his own project, Techno Minimal Senses, which achieves 200,000 visitors in the second year and becomes supported by some of the most important labels in Europe, such as AMAM; Bpitch Control; Cadenza; Crosstown Rebels; Fabric London; Minus; Traum; and more…and some special interviews with Alex Celler & Anthea; Max Cooper; Moderat; Freshkitos; Heartthrob; and Alex D’Elia. He starts playing in 2010 when he was invited to join White Label Agency at Porto, and he played in some of the most important clubs in Portugal, Industria Club; Pitch; and TSB; some bars and beach parties too, and he share the decks with artists like Alex Under; Tadeo; Damian Schwartz and national artists such as Freshkitos; Zorgan; Pedro Gonzaga and a residency at Canto.Vivo - Aveiro. Rui is now in Switzerland presenting his new project, WANKALA, which he describes with one single phrase “Just drums, bass-lines, funky grooves and only what’s essential to make people move”. Rui manages his sets to a wide range of musical tastes, fusing the deepest minimal soul, bottom-heavy dope beats and abstract house runnings to create an inimitable journey, always looking to push the boundaries of electronic music and to push him-self to the limit.
