His first flirt with the DJ scene happened in the late 80Çs when he used to go to the Baile Funks around town in Rio. After making his move to Melbourne in 2003 He has played at several events...

Versatility may have a wider mean when we talk about Bruno LT's activities with brazilian music and audio techniques. His full dedication led him to work with great names of the Brazilian Popular Music. Extremely sensible to musicality, the DJ and Producer applies the large experience acquired on his own projects involving new talents of the Brazilian alternative music. After having worked for a few years at a great studio in Rio, he had the chance to produce and release some of his tracks and remixes. Soon, LT became the resident DJ of the main electronic parties, making the first experiments of the pioneer Carioca_s Live P.A's. Projects such as the Dub Mentals band incorporated his authenticity in which he develops a set with keyboards, pick-ups, samplers and effects..

Pochoman was offered the chance to sing in America, Brazil and Europe however due to his country's system of government he was unable to go.
