Jorge Valdez has been active in the electronic music scene since 2018, beginning as a DJ and producer before co-founding the queer Barcelona collective YO·YO, where he organized underground events both locally and across Europe. His path as an artist, coupled with a strong commitment to community-driven projects, gradually led him to transition into the industry side of music. Today, he holds the position of Junior Booker at Brunch Electronik, bringing his creative background and organizational skills to one of the scene’s most re- cognizable platforms.
Brunch Electronik is a global reference in electro- nic music, born in Barcelona and now present in Lisbon, Madrid, Paris, São Paulo, Los Angeles, Lyon, Bordeaux, Berlin and beyond. Its concept combines quality music programming with local gastronomy, social responsibility and sustainability, all within a safe, inclusive, daytime environment. Throughout the year, Brunch adapts to open-air venues in di- fferent cities, creating nomadic experiences that remain true to its essence: dancing together by day, in community, and with values.
