Evolving as a trusted free spirit, the Geneva-based DJ, event curator, radio resident and producer reclaims the sounds of black communities. Esengo, joy in DRC Lingala, aims to build bridges between musical genres and scenes in order to create memorable moments of joy. As a DJ he is currently focusing on community work in the world of the night, as a music producer he is working on a personal project that may be released this year.
This Dj set takes place as part of the curation of Zagaza. Zagaza is a laboratory and collective of Afrodescendant artists in the French speaking part of Switzerland that extends its artistic universe to black conscious art. On the last day of the Festival, Zagaza celebrates Black Queer and Femme Music with DJs who will have you dancing the night away. This event is organised in collaboration with Jenni Dantor.
