The line up for anyone can dance w/ Love in the Endz includes Bogota's cult techno producer Brenda, Chilean-born DJ Raff who draws on influences from the Andean regions of Chile, Peru, Bolivia and beyond, and Sofy Suars, a Spanish-Bolivian artist who uses both sound and visuals to explore experimental electronic rhythms.
