On the 17th of January, Dots…IsBurning
Dots joins forces with Mixmag Asia to present something truly special — a night rooted in love, visibility, and radical inclusivity.
We are bursting with pride to welcome IsBurning, the Amsterdam-born collective that has become one of Europe’s most vital platforms for safe, expressive, and joy-driven dance floors. More than just a party series, IsBurning is a movement — one that centres freedom of expression, mutual respect, and the belief that dance floors should be spaces where everyone can exist fully and unapologetically.
Founded by Carlos Valdes, IsBurning has built a powerful reputation for nights that are emotionally charged, musically rich, and deeply human. His vision has always been clear: to create environments where music, identity, and community intersect — where people feel safe to dance, connect, and celebrate exactly who they are.
As a DJ, Carlos Valdes is known for uplifting, soulful, and groove-led selections that radiate warmth and intention. His sets are emotionally resonant journeys, drawing from house, disco-influenced rhythms, and deep melodic textures — designed to unite rather than divide, and to lift a room collectively.
Joining him is Kairavi, whose sound and presence perfectly align with the spirit of the night. With roots spanning India and Germany, Kairavi brings a global, expressive energy to the dance floor — blending rhythm, emotion, and cultural fluidity into sets that feel both powerful and deeply personal.
For Dots, this night holds special meaning. Presenting Dots…IsBurning in Sri Lanka, in partnership with Mixmag Asia, is a statement of values — a commitment to inclusive dance floors, to supporting diverse voices, and to ensuring that music spaces remain open, respectful, and welcoming to all.
This is a celebration.
This is a safe space.
This is pride in all its forms.
Come as you are. Dance as you feel.
All love. No judgement.
