Peligrosa

Go behind-the-scenes at an innovative DJ collective. Established in 2007, Peligrosa is a collective of DJs, producers, and visual artists at the forefront of a electronic movement re-energizing the sights and sounds of Latin America. Often excluded from the mainstream arts scene, DJing is a complex art form which combines music, dance, and visual art. Peligrosa takes these experiences and blends influences from the member's backgrounds. Their work isn't just about "being Latin", it's about celebrating diverse influences, wherever they may be found. Peligrosa is forging a contemporary identify for Latin American culture.
