DJ K
DJ K began producing music at 17, immersing himself in FL Studio tutorials and quickly rising to prominence in São Paulo’s underground scene. At 24, he’s become a leading innovator in Brazilian funk, known for his creation of bruxaria — a dark, noisy, and psychedelic spin on baile funk that redefines the genre’s boundaries.
His debut album, Pânico no Submundo (2023), was hailed as a “bloodcurdling collection of eldritch horrors” by Pitchfork (Pitchfork). His follow-up, Rádio Libertadora, has been even more widely acclaimed. The Guardian described it as “explosive, cacophonous baile funk witchcraft” (The Guardian), while The FADER noted, “DJ K isn’t producing anymore. He’s doing witchcraft” (The FADER).
With thunderous bass, hallucinogenic textures, and unrelenting energy, DJ K delivers performances that blur the line between rave and riot, bringing bruxaria to international audiences.
