Dopamina is a BIPOC queer event that celebrates music, culture, and community through the lens of underground Brazilian electro funk/baile funk and underground Latinx (Latin Club) sounds.

Dopamina is more than just an event—it’s a movement, a sanctuary, and a celebration of BIPOC brazilian & latinx queer culture through the electrifying sounds of Brazilian underground electro funk/baile funk and underground latin club rhythms.

For our first edition on the 24th of May in Parallel, we're teaming up with CHOKA, a Berlin-based Latin American collective founded by Bolivian artist and DJ Maque and Brazilian producer auto_time. Inspired by the word “chocar” (to collide), CHOKA is both a platform and party amplifying bass sounds from the Global South—centered on queer, migrant, and diasporic voices.
