Today marks an exciting milestone for Belo Horizonte’s own Viot with the release of his new house single ‘So Far So Good,’ brought to us by Diplo’s Higher Ground label.
‘So Far So Good,’ by Viot is a perfect blend of warmth and vitality, featuring lively vocal samples, a dynamic groove, and sharp percussion. It’s a piece that not only gets your body moving but also lifts your spirits, showcasing Viot’s knack for creating tech house anthems that resonate on both a musical and emotional level.
Behind the buoyant beats of ‘So Far So Good’ lies a personal narrative of change and optimism. Viot, born Lauro Viotti, created this track amid significant changes—starting a new relationship, relocating, and initiating a new project. The discovery of the perfect acapella seemed to tie all these new beginnings together, encapsulating the positive energy flowing through his life. Viot’s journey from a young club enthusiast sneaking into venues to a respected DJ and producer is a testament to his dedication and passion for music. Inspired by global house figures like Jamie Jones, Viot honed his skills and eventually secured a residency at the very club he used to frequent as a fan, Deputamadre. Over the years, his continuous exploration of sound has led him to release tracks on some of the most prestigious labels in the scene, including Hot Creations, Black Book Records, Repopulate Mars, and Catch & Release.
Viot’s story is one of persistence, talent, and timing. Despite being considered an underground talent in Brazil, his music has caught the attention of house music’s elite, earning support from icons like Michael Bibi, Marco Carola, and Diplo. Last year, Viot began making his mark on the international stage, performing in Ibiza’s famed clubs and other global venues. The single showcases a huge milestone in Viot’s career, symbolizing his growth as an artist and the bright future. As he continues to share his unique sound with the world, Viot remains a name to watch in the house music scene, proving that things are going very well so far.
