Imagine a place where the magic of day and night intertwine. That's what you'll find at DMT Day N' Night Club Guadalajara, created by Alex Don DMT, who takes us on a spiritual journey through music and intelligent pixel LED lights.
Who is Alex Don DMT?
Behind DMT is Alejandro Arce, who found happiness in music and production after 15 years in a completely different field. With the support of his family, his team and his partner, fundamental parts of his work and life, he is working to make DMT the best club in Mexico and beyond.
The name comes from a turning point in his life, one that led him to travel to different countries and festivals and inspired the creation of a club that combines the energy of the day and the magic of the night.
Production
Alex discovered his passion for production in 2021 and has been learning and improving ever since. His hyperactive, perfectionist approach has led him to build LED fixtures and breathtaking stage designs, inspired by international festivals.
Big events
One standout production was Cassian's show, with more than 2,200 attendees and two projectors mapping huge skull sculptures 4.8 meters high by 3.8 meters wide, with a central screen completing the experience. The celebration that truly captivated the crowd was DMTFest on September 2, Don's birthday party, with a 76-meter screen. And the 8KAYS event blew everyone away with its circular stage and matching screen, surrounded by lasers.
Connecting with people
At DMT, connecting with the public is key. In tough times, Alex created the persona of Don DMT, offering affordable tickets and finding new ways to communicate. DMT's philosophy is to be authentic and welcoming, building a community that shares a passion for music and fun.
Emerging talent
At DMT it's not just about big names; it's about talent and passion. Alex values people who dare and are willing to be the face of the project. Opportunity for all is the essence of the DMT scene.
"The only person who can help you is yourself." — Alex Don DMT
