Learn About Me
Become your best by being authentic.
For Saladiaga, it all starts with knowing who you are
Through music, rhythm, and culture, he explores what it means to belong to more than one world. His sound is rooted in Senegalese tradition and shaped by today’s electronic music.
With a deep love for house, afro-house, and percussion, his sets are a journey into identity, connection, and self-expression.
His project SERER takes this journey further. Blending house music with live recordings from Senegal, it’s both an EP and a documentary about bicultural identity and the search for belonging.
Together with Snoeck, he co-founded Tasty Folk, a party series that brings people together to dance and celebrate culture. With sold-out shows and a strong sense of community, their goal is simple: create lasting memories.
For Saladiaga, it’s about more than music. It’s about stories, connection, and diversity.
