Volkoder, the São Paulo-born DJ and producer behind one of electronic music’s most consistent international careers, has officially signed with William Morris Endeavor (WME) for worldwide live music and touring representation, excluding Brazil.
Agents Crosby Stewart, Kyle Bandler, Matt Smith, and Rico Pedraza are on board at the agency’s Music department. He continues with Braslive Entertainment, the Rio de Janeiro-based 360-degree firm founded in 2010, for management.
Volkoder’s 20-year career has logged 30+ tracks in the Beatport Top 100 and stage time at Ministry of Sound in London, Space Miami, Eden Ibiza, Green Valley, Warung Beach Club, and Tomorrowland Brasil.
With releases on Hot Creations, Catch & Release, and Black Book Records, his 2025 output earned direct support from Chris Lake, John Summit, and James Hype.
His 2026 debut on Solomun’s Diynamic Music, the six-track Picture: Volkoder vinyl EP, has since received early backing from Solomun, CamelPhat, Mau P, and Vintage Culture, signaling his strongest international moment yet.
The WME signing mirrors the agency’s recent push in electronic music, having also brought aboard Tommy Gold earlier in 2026. WME has also recently made similar moves with Arden Jones and Us Two for worldwide representation.
Takeaways
This is the kind of signing that makes complete sense on paper and in practice. Volkoder isn’t a newcomer chasing a big agency deal, he’s a 20-year veteran who has already proven the global demand.
WME stepping in for worldwide touring (Brazil carved out, held by his home base team at Braslive) is a clean, strategic structure that lets his international bookings scale without disrupting what already works at home.
The timing is also notable. His Picture: Volkoder EP landing on Diynamic, one of underground electronic music’s most respected labels, has put him in front of a new audience just as WME plugs him into a global booking infrastructure. That’s not a coincidence. That’s a career being managed with real intention.
Does this WME signing mean bigger festival slots and international headlining opportunities are coming for Volkoder in the next 12–18 months? WME has now signed multiple electronic/DJ acts in 2026 alone, is the agency making a deliberate play to own more of the global dance music touring market?
