Borchi is an inescapable presence in Mexico City’s burgeoning tropical bass scene. As one half of the Beat Buffet duo, Pablo Borchi started out DJing at weddings before progressing to promoting the tri-monthly “Day Off” party, committed to showcasing modern electronic music influenced by Latin American folklore. His first EP as Borchi came out in 2014 and, although his music rarely exceeds 105 BPM, his slow grooves hold onto the propulsive danceability associated with the more raucous styles played at “Day Off”: connecting the dots between cumbia, dancehall, and American hip hop. Pulling inspiration from artists as disparate as *Chancha Vía Circuito* and *The Prodigy*, this member of the www.CassetteBlog.com crew aspires to expand the musical horizons of the tropical bass scene.
