Summary

Dramos is a New Jersey based DJ and producer redefining Latin club music through an East Coast lens. Rooted in Puerto Rican heritage, his sound blends Latin club rhythms, house structure, and global dance energy into a modern expression of diaspora identity. His performances are immersive and rhythm-driven, built as cultural experiences that connect tradition with forward-thinking electronic production. Working at the intersection of ancestral rhythm and contemporary club architecture, Dramos moves fluidly between salsa-house hybrids, Latin tech grooves, percussive house, and broader Latin club influences. Live percussion textures, melodic phrasing drawn from classic Latin music, and driving low-end foundations sit at the core of his sound, creating records and sets that feel intentional, kinetic, and emotionally charged rather than trend-driven. His releases have appeared on internationally respected labels including Dim Mak, Armada, Enhanced, and Stealth Records. With a growing catalog of original productions and hybrid Salsa-House and Latin club records, Dramos is carving out a distinct lane within global dance culture that centers identity, movement, and evolution.
