Tech House DJ Latmun Turned Freestyle Kayaking into Music

Tech House DJ Latmun loved freestyle kayaking that is until he came across electronic music. His love for the sport didn’t end when he put down his paddle. In fact, he made sure to carry that part of his life with him when shifting his attention to music. His artistic name pays a nod to the sport he competed in professionally. While he may not be getting wavey in the waters anymore, Latmun is certainly getting wavey on the dancefloor. The Nottingham-native has received support from leading artists in the electronic dance music space including Skream and Mathias Tanzmann.

If you’re in Miami during Miami Music Week (March 16 – 22), make sure to catch Latmun’s infectious grooves during the Repopulate Mars pool party. He’ll play alongside Lee Foss, Huxley, MK, Richy Ahmed, Mason Maynard and more.
