ABOUT ME
Mexican-born and Washington, D.C.–based, Los XL is a multiple Billboard-charting DJ, producer, and artist helping shape the evolving sound of Latin electronic music. With Moombahton at his foundation and influences spanning Latin music, dancehall, hip-hop, global bass, and club culture, Los XL has built a career around connecting sounds, cultures, and audiences that rarely exist in the same space.
Emerging from the Washington, D.C. scene that gave birth to Moombahton, Los XL became known for a genre-blurring approach that pushed the sound beyond its original boundaries. His work has been recognized by Remezcla, and his catalog has included releases through labels including Buygore and Good Enuff, while he continues to release independently through his own imprint, CRTV Music, distributed by EMPIRE.
His career includes multiple appearances on Billboard’s Latin Digital Song Sales chart. Alongside longtime collaborator Mannie D Cruz, Los XL debuted at No. 6 with “Siente El Calor.” The record also reached No. 2 on iTunes’ Global Pop in Spanish chart, while charting across additional international iTunes markets. Los XL also debuted at No. 7 on Billboard’s Latin Digital Song Sales chart with “Alarma,” alongside longtime collaborator Jefferson D Lion.
Beyond the charts, Los XL’s music has crossed into television and entertainment through sync placements including VICE’s What Would Diplo Do? and Netflix’s Fast & Furious: Spy Racers, extending his sound beyond clubs and streaming platforms into global media.
In 2026, Los XL expanded that reach into professional sports as the producer and mastering engineer of Jason Cerda’s “Golazo,” the official anthem associated with the Washington Spirit of the National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL). The song’s official music video featured the Washington Spirit and Audi Field, with Cerda later performing the record during the club’s Worldwide Culture Match.
A member of both the Recording Academy and the Latin Recording Academy, Los XL represents a generation of independent Latin artists building careers without being restricted by genre, language, or geography. His work exists at the intersection of Latin culture and electronic music, combining the rhythmic foundation of Moombahton with a constantly evolving range of global sounds.
Whether producing his own records, collaborating with artists, reimagining familiar sounds through remixes, or creating music for larger cultural moments, Los XL’s approach remains consistent: bring unexpected worlds together and make them feel like they always belonged in the same room.
With more than a decade invested in the culture that shaped him, Los XL isn’t simply watching Latin electronic music enter a new era.
He’s helping shape what comes next.
