Aftercluv Dancelab, a new EDM label launched in January by Universal Music Latin America, has announced the launch of Aftercluv.com, a new web play focused on Latin electronic dance music in the U.S., Latin American, Portuguese and Brazilian markets. It will be available in English, Spanish and Portuguese.
Since its January launch, Aftercluv has released Afrojack and Martin Garrix’s hit “Turn Up the Speakers” in the Latin region and signed Mexican DJ duo Tom & Collins. The label also opened up offices in Ibiza and Barcelona, which now gives it presence in 11 cities worldwide.
While the site quietly launched in beta a few weeks ago, the official launch today (Apr. 24) premiered an interview with Tiesto as well as multiple news and features on EDM comings and goings.
The launch comes following news that Afrojack will perform at the Billboard Latin Music Awards April 30, in a nod to the genre’s growing popularity in the Latin world.
This year’s Billboard Latin Music conference will also, for the first time, feature an EDM panel that includes Luis Estrada, general manager of Aftercluv and Universal Music Latino, Afrojack manager Hugo Langras, George Sanchez of Insane Management and Life in Color’s Sebastian Solano. The panel will be moderated by BEATGASM’s Erik Velez.
