DJ Talla (his real name is Marcelo Tallandre) is credited with being one of Brazil’s leading trendsetters in the night life arena. From being the first cornerstone DJ of X-Demente (est. 1995) to becoming one of the most loved DJs in Los Angeles.
Talla’s first influence with the music industry began during fifteen years as an Olympic gymnastic coach. He was inspired by the different sounds and techniques of the music he encountered. Talla began to develop his own style and has since received world recognition for his creative style of sex music and powerful tribal house.
He has had performances that stretch across continents and around the world, including Massivo (Sao Paulo), Pier Maua (Rio de Janeiro), White Party 2003 (Palm Springs), BillboardLive (Miami), and many more. Since 2001 he has been the resident DJ at one of the hottest spots in Los Angeles, The Abbey.
Talla has truly become a DJ to lead the world further into uncharted territories of this epidemic we call the night life.
Talla's International following is also on a constant rise as he performs all over the world and pays regular visits to world class venues: Skol Beats (Rio de Janeiro) - a venue that house’s over forty thousand people, Suzike Ball (Tokyo), and many more.
With support from top DJs such as Manny Lehman and music composer Chris Cox, he has become a true believer in the worldwide movement, someone with clarity of vision and passion for his trade. Take a look at the "world through his eyes" and see what it has in store.
DJ Talla lives in Los Angeles, California and is an exclusive to Stephen Ford of DivasAndDjs.com.
