DJ Babatr is the driving force and essence of Raptor House, a genre and cultural movement that emerged from the bustling streets of Caracas in the late '90s. Built on heavy percussion, repetition, and urgency, this sound spread through massive daytime raves known as matinées, capturing the energy of neighborhoods like Catia, Las Lomas, La Cota, and Petare.

Raptor House is inseparable from its creator. Babatr is not only the creator and architect of the genre. He remains its most committed voice. His work redefined electronic music in Venezuela, blending Hard Techno, Tribal, House, and local rhythmic structures with the tension and vitality of the barrio, built alongside a tribe that made the sound collective. The result is not just a genre, but a sound system of cultural and social expression.




What emerged from the barrios of Caracas became a collective language for a generation, and eventually, a global reference. Babatr’s sets carry that intensity across borders. They are precise, emotional, and rooted. His music moves with the raw energy of the barrio, brought into the club with a natural flow.

For DJ Babatr, it’s always about the vibe, the energy, the flow, the connection. The love music brings to the dance floor.
