Dracaena es selectora y coleccionista de discos, nacida en Cali, Colombia y radicada en Berlín. Sus sets son enérgicos y envolventes, con un enfoque en potentes solos de percusión y piano, pensados tanto para bailar como para escuchar con atención. Su propuesta gira en torno a la salsa y los sonidos de la diáspora, especialmente ritmos afrocaribeños, afrolatinos y latinoamericanos. Es parte activa de la comunidad de coleccionistas en Berlín y del equipo organizador del @berlinensalsa . Dracaena también ha participado en charlas y paneles —entre ellos con @dldconference @radiospaceandance — compartiendo su experiencia como selectora y coleccionista en el cruce entre música, cultura e identidad.

☆ Salsa House ☆ A visual and sonic invocation of Salsa and its imaginaries by @angelicaliv and @dracaena_____ at  @zart.berlin as part of the 2026 program of @48stundennk 

The genre is lived by these two artists as a portable home and a threshold where memory, community, and celebration meet. In the space you’ll find a collection of cover art paintings, textile works, archival material and a devotional figure created between Berlin and Colombia. Not so much unfinished as always unfolding — Salsa House holds open the question: can a collection ever be complete? Whether of records, artworks, or memories.

Hoping to see you this upcoming Friday the 3rd from 19h-22h to try our Salsa House Sour🍹or throughout the wknd from 15h-22h at Zart - Hobrechstr. 43

🌴✨Meet @dracaena_____ , a very special guest on our upcoming listening session in @laden2berlin on 10.06

EN
Dracaena is a music curator and cultural manager born in Cali, Colombia, and based in Berlin. Through her work, she explores the stories, memories and cultural connections that run through salsa, Latin jazz and Afro-Caribbean music. As founder and organiser of the @berlinensalsa festival, she seeks to create spaces for encounter, learning and exchange centred on salsa culture, understood not only as a musical genre but also as an expression of identity, migration, resistance and community.

How did salsa arrive in Cali? Why did a city in south-western Colombia end up becoming one of the world’s most important centres for this music?

This talk offers a journey through the social and musical history of Cali between the 1950s and 1980s, exploring the role of working-class neighbourhoods, the arrival of records via the port of Buenaventura, and the emergence of the agüelulos: youth gathering places where music, dance and community helped forge a distinct identity.

ES
Dracaena es una selectora y gestora cultural nacida en Cali, Colombia, y radicada en Berlín. A través de su trabajo explora las historias, memorias y conexiones culturales que atraviesan la salsa, el jazz latino y las músicas afrocaribeñas. Como fundadora y organizadora del festival Berlin en Salsa, busca crear espacios de encuentro, aprendizaje e intercambio alrededor de la cultura salsera, entendida no solo como un género musical, sino también como una expresión de identidad, migración, resistencia y comunidad.

¿Cómo llegó la salsa a Cali? ¿Por qué una ciudad del suroccidente colombiano terminó convirtiéndose en uno de los lugares más importantes del mundo para esta música?

Esta charla propone un recorrido por la historia social y musical de Cali entre las décadas de 1950 y 1980, explorando el papel de los barrios populares, la llegada de los discos a través del puerto de Buenaventura y el surgimiento de los agüelulos: espacios de encuentro juvenil donde la música, el baile y la comunidad ayudaron a forjar una identidad propia. by @dracaena_____
