John Talabot

Eclectic DJ spinning Deep, melodic house and Balearic grooves easing into hypnotic late-night techno

John Talabot is a producer and DJ from Barcelona, Spain, and one of the defining voices of the city's modern electronic scene. He runs the influential Hivern Discs label and broke through with his 2012 debut album fIN on Permanent Vacation, a record of hazy, emotive house that reshaped expectations for the form. In 2013 he mixed an entry in the long running DJ-Kicks series and later formed Talaboman with Axel Boman. His DJ sets move through deep, melodic and Balearic house into hypnotic late night techno, favouring mood and patience over spectacle. He has played Boiler Room and festivals across Europe, and remains a reliable draw for dancers who want emotion in their electronic music. A set from Talabot rewards the long haul, building warmth and tension across hours rather than chasing quick peaks.
