Nixer is a Colombian DJ, selector, and music curator based in Barcelona, and the founder of MalaFama, a platform dedicated to amplifying independent sounds from the Global South. His musical approach explores the intersections of cumbia, Afro-tropical rhythms, psychedelia, and Latin American electronic music, celebrating Black-rooted sounds beyond mainstream industry circuits. Through DJ sets, vinyl sessions, and cultural projects, he connects independent music scenes, artists, and Latin American diasporic communities. His selections combine deep musical research, unexpected sonic discoveries, and infectious dance-floor energy, turning every set into an experience of exploration, connection, and cultural resistance.
Originally from Bogotá and based in Barcelona, Sonikgroove crafts a refined take on world electronica. Exploring the intersection of Afro-Latin music traditions and contemporary electronic music, he blends organic textures, acoustic instrumentation, and hypnotic synths over deep, driving basslines, creating a sound that resonates as powerfully on the dance floor as in intimate listening spaces.
In the booth, he offers two distinct journeys: modern, high-energy electronic sets in digital format moving fluidly through organic house, afro disco, folktronica, indie dance, and global bass, and curated vinyl selections exploring the rich heritage of Latin and Caribbean rhythms. With an instinctive sense of rhythm and progression, he builds energy while maintaining depth, guiding audiences through unexpected and immersive musical experiences designed for collective movement and global connection.
He has performed across Europe and Latin America, with appearances at Tribal Gathering (Panama), Own Spirit (Spain), Borgo Universo (Italy), and Primavera Sound x Soho House (Spain).
Sonikgroove is also the founder of Gozalow, — a record label and creative platform that brings together artists from across the globe through carefully curated musical experiences.
Additionally, he works as a music producer and sound designer for audiovisual projects, including documentaries, art installations, video art, and corporate videos.
