As the weather cools down, our fifth Áspora Session is here to heat things up, featuring a very special guest: DJ NO PARE (@djnopare). We’re thrilled to welcome this dear friend of ours and a resident of the Colombian label RUTA (@rutamp3), a project that holds a special place in our hearts.

DJ NO PARE arrives on Áspora with a curated set of classic reggaeton tracks that once stirred controversy for their raw, gritty style. These early 2000s sounds were unapologetically bold, with explicit lyrics that touched on partying, betrayal, street life, love, and breakups, embodying the underground club scene of the time. This set is a tribute to the era that shaped DJ NO PARE’s youth in Colombia—neighborhood block parties, baggy clothes, and sweat-drenched dance floors—a nod to the roots of reggaeton culture that influenced an entire generation.

We hope this journey takes you back to the early dance years from our home. Be sure to explore more from @djnopare and the incredible @rutamp3.

Que viva el perreo!

If I could attend any music festival or concert in the world, it would be Coachella. There's something magical about the Indio desert sun setting over the stage as your favorite band plays their hit single... yeah, that's my happy place.

Simon is an interdisciplinary artist, DJ, and selector from Colombia, currently based between Berlin and Leipzig, Germany. Simón is one of the founders of Calentura Berlin and Áspora in Leipzig, as well as a member of Necios Berlin. The passion for music makes Simón a true ’’digger’’ of sounds, always seeking inspiration in the rhythms of the Global South with a strong focus on their Latin American roots.

This dedication has led Simón to explore hidden databases, forgotten vinyl shops, antique stores, and any corner willing to share its soundscapes, both in Colombia and around the world. Always eager to listen to the last track or sift through every box to find that special vinyl.

Simón JaVa sets span traditional Latin American rhythmic foundations, including genres such as Salsa, Cumbia, African music, and Merengue, to the most avant-garde and contemporary styles like Latin Club, Guaracha, Perreo, Neo Perreo, Dembow, Baile Funk, Raptor House, Latincore, and Afrofuturism, among others. Each set is crafted as a journey through diverse soundscapes and musical latitudes, always highlighting diversity and breaking monotony.

This unique approach has led Simón to develop the concept of ’’Tejidos Sonoros’’ - ’’Sonics Weaves’’, where different sounds and music intertwine to create an immersive and captivating auditory experience.
