Who they are
“Ben Zo has brought his acid-infused, harmonic mixing to vastly-different venues throughout Brooklyn including H0L0, Mansions, SILO, Trans-Pecos and Xanadu; and for every conceivable set time, whether it's sunset at Fourth World, New Year's Eve all-night-long at Happyfun Hideaway, or opening as well as closing Bossa Nova Civic Club, Jupiter Disco and Mood Ring, among other local cornerstones.”

Ben Zo has brought his acid-infused, harmonic mixing to vastly-different venues throughout Brooklyn including H0L0, Mansions, SILO, Trans-Pecos and Xanadu; and for every conceivable set time, whether it's sunset at Fourth World, New Year's Eve all-night-long at Happyfun Hideaway, or opening as well as closing Bossa Nova Civic Club, Jupiter Disco and Mood Ring, among other local cornerstones. A versatile selector with a filmmaking background, his consistently cosmic palette largely encompasses heady house and celestial techno, under the heavy influence of Italo, IDM, trance and other melodic samples. Blending the familiar and esoteric in search of vistas that evoke the natural world, he crafts uniquely psychedelic moments that echo long after in thought. He is the organizer of BUSH DÜF, a Bushwick-based party focused on 'cosmic, colorful and cathartic' techno. His guest mixes have been aired by other stations in New York such as 8 Ball Radio and Newtown Radio (of which he is a former resident), and around the world including Internet Public Radio, London's Subtle Radio, Athens' Fade Radio, Bangkok Community Radio and a three-hour mix for Manila Community Radio.Recently at Bossa Nova Civic Club, Jupiter Disco, Freddy's Bar and Backroom · often with cruz ctrl, STEEN, DrToof, none of them here that night

the whole biography
Born to Cuban parents, papirreo's musical journey is deeply rooted in the rich tapestry of Latin rhythms, creating an immersive experience that transcends borders. With an innate passion for Reggaeton, papirreo's sets are a testament to the rhythmic legacy of the Bronx, blending the beats of the borough with the soulful essence of Cuban heritage. His artistry extends beyond the turntables as he seamlessly weaves together a narrative that celebrates the diversity of Latin music. In each performance, papirreo not only showcases his prowess as a Reggaeton DJ but also pays homage to the Spanish language, embracing the cultural nuances that define Latin America. His curated selections reflect a curated journey across the continent, capturing the essence of each locale and inviting audiences to explore the vibrant sounds of Latin music. Step into the world of DJ papirreo, where the Bronx meets Cuba, and Reggaeton becomes a universal language that unites dance floors around the world. Embrace the Latin rhythm, feel the beat, and let the music of papirreo transport you to the heart of the Bronx's pulsating cultural mosaic.Recently at Jade, Our Wicked Lady, Sleepwalk · often with Esme, @notagami, Harry Moreno, none of them here that night
