INSTITUT 009 | vintage vinyl | JUANA GO-GO

Eclectic vinyl-rooted selections of Latin and global sounds connecting memory, diaspora and movement, presented by Sonic Sancocho
About this Event

Latin funk, soul, cumbia, salsa and global rhythms — sonic journeys that connect memory, diaspora and movement.

Vol 9: JUANA GO-GÓ closes the night — sets that move as travesías sonoras, weaving together rare vinyl finds and global rhythms into something archival and alive.

This is the closing set of VOLUME 9 of the INSTITUT experiment. Every week, a different hypothesis. Underground at 620 Spadina Ave - around the back, through the lot to the steel doors, down the stairs, past the mechanical room, through the swinging wood laminate door...

Come earlier for MAJD SUKAR x AL MUMMIA at 9PM, SONIC MIRAGE at 7PM, or the UA Theatre Salon at 5PM. But RSVP even though it's PWYC so we know who to expect.

JUANA GO-GÓ is a Toronto-based DJ, vinyl selector and cultural curator known for crafting immersive dance floor experiences rooted in Latin and global sounds. Her sets move as travesías sonoras — sonic journeys that connect memory, diaspora and movement — weaving together Latin funk, soul, cumbia, salsa and global rhythms into dynamic, genre-fluid sets. She is the co-founder of Sonic Sancocho, a hybrid platform and radio show that brings together live music, DJ culture and community ritual. Whether behind the decks or on the airwaves, Juana Go-Gó is driven by a belief in music as a tool for connection — bridging cultures, generations and geographies through rhythm and shared experience.

SONIC SANCOCHO is a Toronto-based cultural platform and radio show founded in 2024 by Olasconola & Juana Go-Gó, rooted in the spirit of Sancocho, a rich, shared Latin American stew. Like the dish, it's layered, collective, and made to bring people together — blending vinyl DJ culture, live performance, and global sounds into immersive, ritual-like gatherings.
