Emiliano Dietzgen

Mexican DJ and producer, member of Chakanais (CHKNS), an inter-in-disciplinary and multi-dis-functional collective from Mexico City dedicated to produce events and audiovisual materials around music and dance as events. These include the production of parties, the self-publication of a fanzine and the production of radio shows on different platforms.

In his productions and dj sets Dietzgen bets on deep beats and heavy bass as a means to conjure an intense and hypnotic dancefloor. His productions have appeared on labels such as Folcore Records, NOFUTURE, HTS and Cassette Blog. His DJ sets, always energetic and diverse, move between diverse worldly drums, deep bass lines and atmospheres that affirm the enjoyment of the free dance. His sets are clearly influenced by hardrum, kuduro, tarraxo, baile funk, dembow, reggaeton, techno and new underground sounds and rhythms from Latin America and the peripheries of the world. Dietzgen has played on various stages in Mexico City and this year participated as a dj and radio host at Documenta fifteen, in Kassel, Germany, as well as at some gigs in Berlin. He is currently preparing new releases in the realm of the 130 bpm, and some collabs.
