DJ Kosmos, Groovycosta - Turbulencia / Fantazia

Old-school respecting release from 2 veteran producers.

DJ Kosmos has been part of Barcelona's techno scene for more than thirty years now. He sticks to the craft instead of chasing hype, which we think keeps things real in the underground.

Back in the early 90s he started, and since then he’s built this whole legacy around long sets that just go on and on. His programming is precise, and hes always loyal to the city. As a resident DJ at Nitsa Club, he tours internationally too, but he makes sure to balance that with staying connected locally. He pushes for homegrown talent more than any passing trends, keeping the resident culture alive.

Barcelona's nightlife changed a lot over the years, getting more professional and commercial. But DJ Kosmos has stayed the same, mentoring new DJs on things like pacing and sound quality. He talks about that unspoken deal between the artist and the people dancing. His influence goes past just his own sets or productions, it shapes how younger folks handle the decks these days.

In a city that keeps reinventing itself, he stands for something steady. After three decades, the techno underground here is still around partly because DJ Kosmos never really left. That part gets a bit messy to explain, but you’ll understand after listening to the his new release.
