Hugo Leite – Portugal
Searching, selecting and playing music for an audience is my profession. It has been my full time occupation since March 2002. My area of speciality are the rhythms that compose Salsa music but I also work with other Latin and African rhythms. I have found in music and professional audio an intense passion… and I love sharing it with others!

Salsa dancing since 2005, Mathias got into djing relatively late, the first time in 2017, when he organised small parties in the Zurich area together with Janine. The association SalsaOn2Happenings developed from that and from that also the ChocolateMamboMarathon. In 2021 he started producing his own music, especially designed for dancers. As a co-organiser of the CMM, MimoMusic would now like to help shape the CMM musically and is already looking forward to the great event!
