GORDO

Origin: Guatemala

Diamanté Anthony Blackmon has already helped to define a global musical movement. But now he’s doing it again: GORDO is a new house music alias from the artist previously known as Carnage. More than that, it is a new way of life and a new way of thinking for Diamanté. Brought on by time spent reflecting during the pandemic, Blackmon now has a new approach to life that he is fulfilling through GORDO. He is working out regularly, eating healthily, and cutting a fine figure with a big smile. With this renewed sense of energy comes his essential new house sound. It is a passionate, heartfelt new beginning for GORDO that will redefine house music for the next generation. 

This fresh energy shines through in GORDO’s live sets as he sets himself apart, providing an all-new sound and experience for fans and concert goers around the world. Off to a quick start, his world tour has seen him perform at iconic venues such as Hï Ibiza, So Track Boa, Shalvata Tel Aviv, Lollapalooza, Fiction Canberra, Savaya Bali, and more. Meanwhile, GORDO continues to curate his own event series; TARAKA, a brand which has been taking over the world, popping up in places like San Francisco, Miami, Tulum, Mykonos, Amsterdam, New York, Bulgaria, and Detroit. Thousands of visitors all over the world have already experienced the events’ authentic block party feeling, featuring extended sets, surprise guests, handpicked line-ups by GORDO himself, and a raw minimal production.
