CARBONERO

ESP: Rodrigo Castillo aka CARBONERO, es un DJ de Drum and Bass ubicado en Tenerife, Islas Canarias, España. Desde su juventud más temprana siempre ha sido un apasionado del Drum and Bass como público, viéndose atraído por los dos principales géneros y subgéneros de esa época en la isla: el old school y el jungle (dentro del dnb). A finales del 2023, luego de acabar sus estudios y tener una vida estable, decide probar comprando una controladora para “pinchar en casa”. Su pasión por esta música es tan grande que al poco tiempo se da cuenta que quiere enfocar las cosas de otra manera y empezar una carrera como DJ. Hoy, esta carrera y sus sets están enfocados en vertientes más actuales y en otros tipos de sonidos: una fusión de jump up, rollers, minimal, sonidos dark y muchos basslines. Puntualmente también se ha adaptado a diferentes entornos y horarios preparando sesiones de deep bass, liquid y comercial. Actualmente CARBONERO es habitual en line ups de varias promotoras en la isla, compartiendo cartel con talentos locales, nacionales e internacionales; de los cuales destacan Dub Elements, Litence, RCKT, El Pablo (UK)... En 2026 da el salto a nivel nacional para pinchar fuera de Canarias en Barcelona (The Protocol), Murcia (Loop Station) y Mallorca. En agosto de 2026 CARBONERO llega al Bass Stage de Sunblast Festival, el festival de electrónica mas grande de Canarias, compartiendo line up con Wilkinson, Sota y Circadian, entre otros. En paralelo, ese mismo verano empieza su etapa como productor y en sus set comienza a aparecer temas propios como son "Move" o "Wraiths". Mucho trabajo por delante y mucha proyección para seguir quemando etapas y lograr los objetivos fijados. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ENG: Rodrigo Castillo aka CARBONERO, is a Drum and Bass DJ based in Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain. From a very young age, he has always been passionate about Drum and Bass as a public, drawn to the two main genres and subgenres popular on the island at that time: old school and jungle (within DnB). At the end of 2023, after finishing his studies and achieving a stable lifestyle, he decided to buy a controller to “mix at home.” His passion for this music was so strong that he soon realized he wanted to take things further and start a career as a DJ. Today, his career and sets are focused on more current styles and a mix of different sounds — a fusion of jump up, rollers, minimal, dark sounds, and heavy basslines. He has also adapted to different places and times, preparing sessions that explore deep bass, liquid, and more commercial tunes. Currently, CARBONERO is a regular presence on many lineups across the island, sharing the stage with both local, national and international talents; like Dub Elements, Litence, RCKT, El Pablo (UK). In 2026 he played for the first time outside the Canary Islands with differents promoters: Barcelona (The Protocol), Murcia (Loop Station) and Mallorca. In August 2026, CARBONERO arrives at the Bass Stage of Sunblast Festival, the biggest festival in the Canary Islands, sharing the lineup with Wilkinson, Sota, and Circadian, among others. At the same time, and after several months of work, he began his career as a producer and original tracks such as "Move" and "Wraiths" appearing in his sets. There’s still a lot of work ahead and a bright path to keep progressing and achieving his goals.
