DJKV (Kontay) began dancing salsa over 15 years ago and has been collecting music from throughout the diaspora for over 20 years. He discovered Kizomba and Semba while living in the UK in 2010 and quickly became hooked on the many various types of music and dance also including Kizomba, Coladeira, Semba, Funnana and Tarraxinha from the Lusophone cultures in Africa, the newer genres of Urban Kiz (Tarraxo, Doucer, etc.) and the Zouk and Konpa rhythms of the French Caribbean.
He likes all types of music from these genres and tries to expose crowds to both the classic hits of yesterday as well as the newest, hottest tracks from around the world. This is a DJ who believes that music is best played by dancers for dancers!
