Pratikesh Salgaonkar — DJ · Music Producer, Mumbai
DJ and producer working the rhythmic depths of the underground — high-energy sets built for private events, house parties and lounge floors.
About
A year deep in the underground, and accelerating
Hypnotic, percussive, built to hold a room rather than chase a drop.
I'm a Mumbai-based DJ and producer dedicated to the rhythmic depths of the underground. My sets live in the seam between raw Techno and deep Afro-inspired rhythms — hypnotic, percussive, built to hold a room rather than chase a drop.
Formally trained and certified through Media Skills — New York DJ Academy, I've spent the past year curating high-energy sets across intimate private gatherings, house parties and professional lounge guest spots. Off the decks, I produce my own material, which keeps the mixing honest: I know how these tracks are built, so I know where they can bend.
