Disko International #12 feat. DJ QUIEN

*** The DISKO INTERNATIONAL – a safe place for dancing to good music from all over the world. For Everyone. All Night Long -> Funk | Tropical | Rare Groove | Afro | Jazz | Reggae | Dub | Disco | Boogie | Soul | From East, West, North, South and all the places and spaces in between. ***

The blossoms arrive in Berlin, and it’s time to unfurl for a night of good dancing music from all over the world in The Disko International! In this session for #14 we warmly invite Invitado especial: Bolivian -> ->Berlin transplant DJ QUIEN to share some music with us on the Panke dancefloor!
Since relocating from Bolivia to Berlin in 2019, DJ Quien has been lighting up local dancefloors with his unique South American/Bass/turntablist rooted style, sharp Dj techniques and workflows. As a regular Disko International attendee Quien knows how we roll so we look forward to hearing him flex a lil’ different- High Altitude sub-amazonian grooves and rhythms, rainforest disko jungle music for the freaks dancing under the cherry blossoms. Abandon the final shackles of the cold and cut some shapes with us for another crucial episode of that good good dancing music from all over the world: Disko International.
On site DI flight crew Soulix, Lucky Loop, & Kava will be providing more hot music, floral arrangement advice and palm readings.
Much Love,
…And see you in the Dance!

The event takes place on the 27th of August starting at 19:00.

Can you hear it? Can you feel it? It`s time for midweek DISKO again! After a relaxing summer hiatus we’re ready to calm down the heat and celebrate life, love and community through music. Fall through and shake your legs to the most unique genre bending party in Berlin-Wedding aka DISKO INTERNATIONAL. This time we team up with our well known friends DJ QUIEN and RADIO VAMPIRO.

RADIO VAMPIRO is the Berlin-based project of Beto, músic selector, DJ, radio host, psychologist, and cultural curator originally from El Salvador. A resident at Cashmere Radio and host of regular shows on other independent radio stations, he is known for eclectic DJ sets spanning house, breaks, electro, disco, and Latin American rhythms such as Latin soul, cumbia, salsa, reggae en español, and other tropical and psychedelic sounds. He has performed at clubs and festivals across Europe and Latin America, while also exploring the musical heritage of Central America and Latin America through radio shows, listening sessions, and archival research, creating connections between dance music, cultural memory, and community.

DJ QUIEN, Born in La Paz, Bolivia, has been DJing for 25+ years, delving into a diverse array of musical genres. His exploration has taken him from the captivating and elusive rhythms of Cumbia, funk, soul, disco, and boogie to the throbbing electronic beats, often delving into the depths of bass-heavy sounds. Throughout his journey, he’s incorporated elements of turntablism, resulting in a versatile and dynamic range of musical experiences. DJ Quien masterfully blends the artistic with the technical, delivering electrifying dance floors and leaving audiences in a state of wonder.
He is co-founder of the Oi Mas Bass label and collective, spearheaded the creation of the South American digital arts festival Kiebre, won the Soul Side HCMC Scratch Battle and became Sample Music Festivals Portablism Champion in 2025. His involvement further extends to Berlin’s Bassism Crew and the international CRISP Collective.
