Backstage Intro: Meet Rafael

[Richard]

Hello Rafael (Spotify Community moderator), nice to meet you. Tell us a little about yourself.

Hey! My name is Rafael and was born in Australia, after many hops around the world I've now landed in the UK. Since I was two years old I've been working/using computers until University. One day I woke up and found out that programming and IT is not for me or to be more specific it's not "my Dream."

After several start-ups and projects that I've started, I've discovered that Portugal is not the right country. So with a couple of euros in my pocket I moved to the UK I'm now in Spotify. It's been a great experience and I'm loving it. 

So, what kind of music are you into?

I'm into all the music (no not even Justin or One Direction) all depends on the mood. But If I need to choose one I'll say Scooter – How Much Is The Fish?. In every life there was a point that you loved Scooter. 

I still remember the day my mother finally bought the cassette and batteries. Happiest days of my life.

Which of your Spotify playlists are you most proud of?

I'm really into Old-school Hip Hop so I've gathered some cool tracks with a friend of mine: Dope

Have a listen.

Are there any songs you can recite the lyrics to perfectly at a moment's notice?

Eddie Vedder – Society

It's a mystery too me.

We have a greed which we have agreed

You think you have to want more than you need

Until you have it all you won't be free

Society, you're a crazy breed

Thanks for taking the time to chat with us. Before we go, what joke always makes you laugh?

If someone asks you to spell "part A" backwards, don't do it.

It's a Trap.
