Lechuga Zafiro

"Straddling the line between the exploratory nature of club culture and the poetics of sound design, Uruguayan DJ and producer Lechuga Zafiro, a.k.a. Pablo de Var-gas, seeks to express thenuances of Latin American experience through his music." Nina Posner “Uruguay’s Lechuga Zafiro has become a relentless force for South American music in recent years. With both his Salviatek and NAAFI crews, he has taken regional sounds of the continent to the global stage.” Tayyab Amin, The Guardian "de Vargas has a unique knack for blending acoustic drumming with dizzying synth work and off the wall sampling. But it also has the function of connecting folk traditions to contemporary club spaces, bringing the weight of the past to bear on implicitly futurist music." Colin Joyce, Noisey
