their own biography
the whole biography
Born and raised in Uptown New York, Alexis channels his Dominican heritage and deep passion for electronic music into performances that transcend both genre and expectations. With a strong curatorial approach, Alexis has become a sought-after figure in queer nightlife, performing in spaces such as Nowadays, Basement, Signal, Good Room, Papi Juice, and Nocturnal Emissions where he currently holds a residency. Alongside his club work, Alexis has developed an artistic sound practice through residencies for contemporary art institutions, including David Zwirner, BOFFO, and The Kitchen. Within these spaces, he has created immersive sonic environments and compositions that bridge performance, installation, and experimental sound—further deepening his multidisciplinary approach. Most recently, Alexis marked a new chapter in his artistic evolution with the released his debut EP, ARE THERE ANY HOMOSEXUALS?, and toured Sydney, Australia with HOUSE OF MINCE during their PRIDE festival, further expanding his global reach. As a DJ, producer, and visionary, Alexis continues to shape the future of dance music while honoring the rich cultural heritage at the heart of his sound.Recently at Paragon, Mood Ring, Elsewhere · often with Sterling Juan Diaz, MORENXXX, Leonce, none of them here that night
