Raised and rooted in South Texas, DJ and producer Sines is an integral part of the evolution of
US-based, Latinx club music’s growth and mutation. Integrating undeniable influences from the
borderlands’ natural cross-hatching of sounds, Sines’ productions and tastemaking are
foundational to his work in launching his MAJÍA record label, as well as his former production duo Santa
