    their own biography

    the whole biography
    Matias Jofré is a multidisciplinary artist whose work exists at the intersection of sound, image, memory, and place. Born in Argentina and based in New York City, he has spent more than a decade cultivating spaces where electronic music, visual culture, and human connection converge. As a DJ and producer, Jofré is known for immersive sets that weave together Minimal Techno, Deep Techno, Ambient, and Deep House into slow-building narratives rich with tension, texture, and emotion. Rather than chasing trends, his approach focuses on atmosphere, creating journeys that feel equally suited to dance floors, late-night listening, and moments of introspection. He is the founder of Rite of Wednesdays and co-founder of Momentum, influential underground projects that have brought together artists, musicians, and audiences through a shared commitment to discovery and community. His productions combine field recordings, analog experimentation, and cinematic sound design, reflecting a lifelong fascination with the relationship between memory and sound. Outside of music, Jofré works as a photographer, visual artist, and researcher. His broader artistic practice explores archives, migration, collective memory, and the ways personal histories become cultural narratives. Through image, sound, and documentation, he seeks to uncover the stories hidden beneath the surface of everyday life. His work is driven by a simple idea: that art can function as both a record of experience and a catalyst for connection.
