Rooted in Latin and Afro rhythms, DISCOTEK moves through los clásicos, deep cuts and unexpected connections across communities and generations. Strictly vinyl-led, drawing from deep personal collections and rare finds across the diaspora. From salsa brava, cumbia, champeta and reggaeton to dub, global bass, funk and sounds from across the Global South, this is a night ready for the dancefloor, pa' les bailadores!
The lineup brings together Suma Phayiri, a Colombian musician, selector and cultural agitator founder of N.E.A Records , known for weaving deep diasporic rhythms into hypnotic dancefloor journeys.; Cal Jader, co-founder of Movimientos and a key figure in London's Latin and global music scene; Dr. Perra, Bogotá-born DJ, vinyl collector and curator working across Afro-diasporic and contemporary underground sounds; Amancai, DJ, promoter and co-founder of Zaperoco, a night dedicated to Colombian Picotero sound system culture in London; and Moralito, record collector and killer selector, Candela Wax and Clandestina underground party co-founder.
