Elephantglasses

Gabriel Rodriguez, also known as Elephantglasses, hails from the vibrant streets of Jackson Heights, Queens, where diversity isn't just a concept, but a way of life. Raised in a Dominican household, the beats of his heritage were the soundtrack to his childhood, infusing his soul with a passion for rhythm and melody. At the tender age of 14, Gabriel found his rhythm in the pulse of the drums, forming a band with friends and immersing himself in the heartbeat of the city's music scene. Through late nights and jam sessions, he not only honed his craft but forged deep connections with fellow musicians, navigating the labyrinthine layout of New York's iconic venues. As he matured, Gabriel's musical journey evolved, leading him to embrace the electrifying world of club music. Transitioning from the stage to the DJ booth, he discovered a new avenue for self-expression, blending his diverse influences into a unique sonic tapestry. Thus, Elephantglasses was born—a moniker that reflects both his larger-than-life presence and his visionary approach to music. Today, Gabriel is a proud member of the Kold Kutz collective, alongside kindred spirits Blvck Truffle and Ardío Zemog, where they continue to push boundaries and ignite dance floors with their infectious beats. From the underground haunts of TBA Brooklyn to the eclectic vibes of Elsewhere, Gabriel's DJ sets are a testament to his unwavering dedication and boundless creativity, captivating audiences wherever he goes.
