Manchester based producer and DJ Florentino joins us in this Artist Talk to share his music making process and creative journey. Find out how he makes music that compliments a sonic reflection of his heritage, marrying the sounds of latin rhythms & uk low end focus.

‍

Florentino is a British-Colombian producer and DJ that has been blazing a trail of cross-cultural club sounds for the best part of a decade. With a plethora of further releases through numerous esteemed labels, his most recent output “Kilometro Quinze” found a home on XL Recordings, bolstered with features from contemporaries Bambii, KD One, DJ Python and Shygirl. Florentino’s aptitude for expressing his own cultural makeup is emboldened through his curation of Club Romantico - his label and party serving as a bridge & home for all things between UK & LATAM club sonics.
