Rapha Fernandes, also known as RFM, is a Brazilian DJ and music producer, considered one of the prominent figures in São Paulo's nightlife and the national scene right now. His 10-year residency at BC, a European club with a branch in São Paulo, where he is the artistic curator and leads all the classic Thursdays, has given him the experience of sharing the stage with renowned artists such as Solomun, Gui Boratto, Guy Gerber, Claptone, among many others, creating his own way of thinking and acting in the music scene. Performing at the biggest festivals and clubs in Brazil such as Tomorrowland, Warung Beach Club, XXXperience, Laroc, Tribe, and many others. Rapha is popular in São Paulo for memorable nights at D-Edge club, with no set end time. Known for having strong opinions and a vast musical repertoire, his sets feature classics and the latest house and techno tunes. His love for music is so great that it's not uncommon to see him play for more than 4 hours.

Rapha Fernandes brings his identity with his first single release with D.O.C. named "COCO". Loaded with a hint of melancholy, the track travels through the realms of house music, featuring a melody with subtle midrange and bass. At the same time, it carries a punch that highlights the signature style imprinted in his live sets. The idea for the track originated during a music trip away from the city, where the lush landscape and long green lawns awakened memories of the artist’s childhood of days playing football in the green fields. "COCO" caught the attention of Gui Boratto, who personally got involved in the final details of the track. At the same time, Gui has provided support by including it in several of his live appearances. More experienced and with a grown musical background, Rapha Fernandes begins a new phase in his career, placing a strong bet with the song identity established in "COCO" and its acceptance on the crowds throughout Brazil and now globally.
