Flo Massé needs no introduction to Fandango dancers after playing 3 memorable sets in 3 different locations across Berlin. Flodango is a concept we've enjoyed every time and Fandango in Rio would just not be the same without her. 

As a DJ, Flo brings a special kind of magic to the dance floor through her selection, technical abilities, and radiating smile. This harmonious relationship has blossomed over the years with Flo getting the deserved recognition & respect for her talent and commitment as a DJ across the world. We are so proud of all she has achieved 💜

Jacob is part of the organising team behind Whole Festival and Buttons - events that inspire us with their purpose, care, and attention to detail.

From bathing to bouncing, @alisonswing flipped the Tuesday moods on the shores of Plötzensee earlier this year. Travelling from classic to futuristic house sounds and back, Alison blended joyous, love-filled, soulful music with perfectly timed moments of uplifting pleasures and peak-time moments of "get the fuck up and dance".

Relive this murky journey from amphibious royalty recorded back in April 2023. The Frosch Prince brought us to new depths with a journey through chuggy, dubby, rocky, and jungle sounds.

Montreal-based DJ & Producer Pascale Project returned to Fandango to clown around the lighthouse last autumn for season 2. But this clown did get someways serious in the deliverance of a sleek and dynamic set that is stacked with  old and new mid to peak housey rhythms that our day time dancers appreciated dearly. 

We cherish this clown. Listen back to relive or experience a sample of Pascale's skillset and respect in her craft as a DJ.

The set is built on foundations of hard-house & progressive sounds with unexpected yet timely jumps into different genres, pulling off peaktime moments from a perfectly prepped bag of records, hearts, and feet. Thank you for this one!

Live recording from Fandango at the Lighthouse, Plötzensee, March 2024

From our very own co-founder, the driving force and ultimate buzzer @markgill444 once again proves he's as much of a mastermind on the decks as he is behind the scenes.

In his own words: " Riding the energy from @eoindjs's sunrise set through DHC’s mid-morning fun, I felt I had no choice but to start sexy, spicy, and suave. The true beauty of a long set allowed me to expand into all kinds of musical eras of my life, just as I was about to turn 30. From 2015 Ibiza minimal anthems to Brazilian Funk with some fresh unreleased goods in between. The final climax came with an air guitar rockout session to Vengaboys remix of The Cardigans that I'll never forget.   

I really got to enjoy the magic of the Lighthouse and filled me with so much pride for what we’ve created together. Thank you to all the openminded dancers and to our incredible team, who allowed me to fully immerse myself while they ran the show. Forever grateful! " - Mark

Her love and passion for dance music culture shone through the windows during delicate daytime hours in the Lighthouse and lit up the dancefloor. Turn up for a demonstration of profi and measured progression to mid set peak time moments, which conjured a freestyle NRG final hour from Chichi we won't forget <3

Live recording from Fandango in the Lighthouse, Plötzensee, March 2024.

@eoindj joined us back in March for an extended sunrise journey in the Lighthouse. They open by softly welcoming early morning dancers to the floor, with warm and subtle sonic waves at every turn. 

This is a masterclass in the Lighthouse dawn progression: offering space and time to develop rhythms and swelling basslines as the windows begin to shine.

Firecracker mix from our firecracker resident: Moretz. Our first taste of Clara’s deep-digger love was on the dancefloors in Brazil and since then she’s created so many more iconic Fandango moments. 

Her unmistakable sound and infectious energy are a must-listen: tune into over two action-packed hours of seriously Moretzable vocals, bassline movers & sexy beat breathers.
