DJ MIX #663 - TEAM ZAPATA (Washington D.C., U.S.A.)

Dance TV is proud to present DJ MIX #663 with the Washington DC–based brother duo Juan and Hugo Zapata — Team Zapata. The Zapata brothers have been key figures in the city’s deep-house underground, known for warm, groove-rich selections, impeccable taste, and a dedication to the craft that spans vinyl, digital, production, and community-building. Their sets embody the soulful, timeless spirit that has defined Washington DC as a true stronghold for real house music. This close to 2-hour journey not only features a few of their productions but also one of their signature edits of Kool & The Gang — the kind of dance-floor magic you can find on their Bandcamp — showcasing the duo’s ability to rework, reshape, and elevate tracks with authenticity and soul. Enjoy! @teamzapata @hugodiego @upmdc Team Zapata — the brother duo of Juan and Hugo Zapata — are long-standing pillars of Washington DC’s underground house community. For decades, they’ve shaped the city’s sound through their warm, groove-rich take on deep house, staying true to the musical legacy that has made DC one of the world’s most respected hubs for soulful, underground house culture. From early vinyl sessions to today’s hybrid sets, the Zapata brothers have built their reputation through consistency, taste, and a deep understanding of dance-floor energy. Juan — regarded by many as one of the most influential figures in DC’s house movement — has been DJing, mentoring, and cultivating spaces for the music longer than most can remember. Hugo, equally essential, brings sharp curation, technical precision, and a shared dedication to keeping real house music alive in its pure form. Beyond DJing, Team Zapata have been central in event organising, sound reinforcement, community-building and supporting countless artists, ensuring that DC’s underground remains vibrant and accessible. Their productions and mixes carry the same ethos: warm, honest, groove-deep house built for people who truly love this culture. Whether behind the decks or behind the scenes, Team Zapata are not just participants in the DC scene — they are part of its foundation.
