Julian Mesa ()

Julian Mesa is a DJ and producer whose sound lies at the intersection of groove-heavy techno, hypnotic atmospheres, and timeless house aesthetics. Hailing from Brooklyn, NYC, and now based in Bahrain, Julian is a cross-continental force connecting underground circuits across the Americas, Europe, Asia, and the Middle East.

Deeply shaped by the golden age of ‘90s electronic music in the U.S., Julian’s musical DNA draws from the likes of Christian Smith, D-Unity, Ellen Allien, and Richie Hawtin. His sets are marked by a sharp instinct for tension and release balancing percussive pressure with subtle textures, always locked to the dancefloor.

Julian’s global footprint includes appearances at renowned clubs and events such as CDV (Berlin), Rave The Planet (Berlin), UNUM Festival Pre-Party, Epizode Pre-Party, Pacha NYC, Heart Miami, Drai’s Las Vegas, and shows across Tokyo, Colombia, and Qingdao. He’s shared stages with pioneers and innovators including Richie Hawtin, Juliet Fox, Timmo, D-Unity, Massano, Lehar, Christian Smith, Alex Stein, and more.

As a producer, Julian has released on respected labels including Tregambe, Phobiq, Renesanz, Gain Records, Hypnostate, and Fervence—with every release charting in the Beatport Top 100 for Techno (Peak Time/Driving). His work has earned ongoing support from key players like Umek, Marco Faraone, Juliet Fox, Spektre, and Raffa FL, cementing his place among techno’s rising global voices.

Beyond the booth, Julian is the founder of OFF Global Group, a platform curating house and techno experiences that spotlight regional and international talent. As Music Director and Resident DJ at Teres Bahrain, he continues to help shape one of the Gulf’s most forward-thinking venues.

Rooted in culture and built for the floor, Julian Mesa is not only an artist but a connector of communities, pushing the underground forward one night at a time.
