The 2026 World Cup served up an unexpected electronic music moment in Miami this week. Ahead of the Brazil vs. Scotland match, Brazilian producer Mochakk and Scottish artist Barry Can’t Swim were tapped to carry the official match ball onto the field — one representing each nation on the pitch. They then closed out the night together behind the decks at Club Space for a back-to-back set.

It’s a natural pairing on paper. Mochakk has spent the past few years building a reputation as one of Brazil’s most globally recognized electronic artists — his 2025 run included a peak-time sunset slot at Coachella, an official remix of Nina Simone’s ‘See-Line Woman’, and a fifth consecutive season at Circoloco Ibiza, alongside his ongoing Mochakk Calling event series. Barry Can’t Swim, for his part, has had a breakout stretch of his own: a Mercury Prize nomination and sold-out headline shows across Europe and North America have cemented his place as one of the UK’s most talked-about names in electronic music.

With Brazil and Scotland squaring off on the pitch, the pairing made for a neat cultural crossover — two artists who have each become standard-bearers for their respective countries’ scenes, sharing a stage in one of the World Cup’s host cities on the night their nations faced each other.

The b2b at Club Space followed the match, making for a full evening that bridged sport and dance music in a way that felt organic rather than contrived. Miami, already a hub for both during tournament season, was the obvious setting.
