UNCLE TACKY

Uncle Tacky is a masked DJ and producer from Mexico, shaping a groove-led sound where house, funk, and disco meet a subtle but unmistakable Latin pulse.

Conceived as a character rather than a persona, the project shifts the focus away from identity and back to the music itself. The mask isn’t a gimmick—it’s a choice. A way of removing ego and keeping the experience centered on what matters: the music, energy, movement, and connection on the dancefloor.

His productions are driven by feel. Warm basslines, tight percussion, and carefully placed vocals come together through analog-leaning textures, moving fluidly between deep, groovy, and driving house. There’s an inherent musicality behind it, shaped early on by a wide range of influences at home—something that still informs how he selects, builds, and moves through a set.

Behind the decks, Uncle Tacky leans into simplicity and control. No excess, no distractions—just a steady progression, a strong sense of groove, and an instinct for reading the room.

A complete artist in approach, he moves seamlessly across formats—whether playing digital or vinyl, building hybrid sets, or performing live—adapting to each setting while preserving the same core intention: to create moments where people lose themselves in the rhythm and find each other in it.
