Bzars’ Rise in the Global Dance Music Scene: From Mexico to the World

THE 10 Qs SERIES

DJ and Producer Alejandro Bezares, known by his stage name BZARS, boasts over 12 years of musical expertise, solidifying his status as one of Monterrey’s top DJs. His distinctive fusion of energetic house and techno has garnered acclaim across Mexico and beyond, with notable collaborations alongside artists like Nervo and INNA.

BZARS gained widespread recognition by releasing “Blue Dreams” with Mr. Pig and Sapir Amar. This soulful tech house track has accumulated nearly 45 million Spotify streams to date. His career reached a pinnacle last year with the release of his highly anticipated debut album “222,” a moment he describes as the highlight of his live performances. “I was so nervous to present it at the festival, and it was thrilling to realize that people liked my music proposal. It was nice to see my friends and family among my fanbase to party with me and my album,” he shared.

Since his debut album, BZARS has maintained a relentless pace, continuously refining his craft and pushing the boundaries of his distinctive sound.

Adding to his impressive discography, the Mexican DJ delivers another infectious dance anthem with ‘Monalisa,’ his fourth release this year following ‘Humans,’ ‘Tall White,’ and ‘Quema.’ For this track, he teams up with selector Marcos Jungle and Jowell (half of the reggaeton duo Jowell & Randy), while Luciana lends her smooth vocals.

Expressing his enthusiasm on social media, Bzars remarked, “Proud to take another step in my career as a music producer and DJ, now I bring you a Latin Tech collaboration with the legend Jowell, the Queen Luciana, and the genius Marcos Jungle.”

Bzars is revving up for an exciting year ahead! He’s ready to drop another smash hit, teaming up with Luciana and Kenn Colt on their upcoming track “Cannibal,” along with an EP slated for release in September.
