Since his beginnings in Mexico City, DJ/producer Ossios has dedicated his life to cultivating good taste and working from many angles of the creative spectrum. Born in the 80’s, his first memories were graced by his father’s broad music taste and celebratory family gatherings. So it’s no surprise that when Ossios arrived in Berlin, he continued his creative journey through all sides of nourishment: sonic, spacial, and culinary arts. It is a combo he serves consistently at Motif, his cozy wine bar and listening hotspot in Berlin’s Neukölln where one can sip natural wine, listen to downtempo rarities, and find vinyl gems in a well-curated room of records. Ossios is a purveyor of all sounds funky and mysterious. As a vinyl collector and explorer of genres, his record bag might easily reveal Sergio Mendez next to James Holden or Miles Davis next to Ricardo Villalobos. From a 12-hour only disco session at Berlin’s Heidegluhen to an all day long daytime seaside journey at Garbicz festival, Ossios has brought his inquisitive and inviting energy to a wide range of spaces, both on and off the dance floor. Behind the booth, Ossios effortlessly shares his sense of wonder and precision, reading the room with selections that are united in groove yet never predictable. It is because of this attentiveness that Ossios has made routine appearances at Club der Visionaere and Hoppetosse in Berlin, Papaya Playa Project in Tulum as a resident, Kaiku in Helsinki, Cervo in Zermatt, and various European summer festivals each year. The key to Ossios’ vision is a dedication to his heart. Whether with his approach in curating the music and wine selection at Motif, hosting special collaborative events, picking records for a cozy summer sunrise set, rocking dance floors in Mexico City, or even satisfying his creative hunger through his daily painting practice, Ossios is a true renaissance man thriving in a modern time.
