DJ Tarico

**DJ Tarico** is a Mozambican DJ and producer who’s become a key player in the explosive Amapiano scene spreading across Africa. As part of the dynamic trio **Yaba Buluku Boyz** (alongside Nelson Tivane and Jay SQ), he’s helped fuse Mozambique’s vibrant rhythms with South Africa’s signature Amapiano grooves, creating tracks that bump at parties from Maputo to Johannesburg. Known for remixes that flip global hits into dancefloor gold—like his fiery take on “Azul” or the slick “New Maserati” rework—DJ Tarico keeps his sound fresh while staying rooted in Afrohouse energy. His collabs and solo drops, including bangers like “Riko” and “Wa Kula,” showcase his knack for weaving hypnotic log drums, airy synths, and infectious vocal hooks. Whether he’s cooking up originals or giving tracks a spicy Amapiano twist, DJ Tarico stays glued to the streets’ pulse, solidifying his rep as a go-to hitmaker in Southern Africa’s buzzing electronic music landscape.
