about
Isaac Prieto is a vinyl only DJ from Detroit and founder of the record label, Detroit Vinyl Room
Born in Mexico but based out of Detroit, Isaac Prieto is a true student of sound. Initially moving to the city to pursue a career in medicine, a chance trip to Movement in 2011 altered his life and introduced him to his calling. Connecting with the small but influential Latin community in the city, he immersed himself in collecting records, attending parties and DJing in his spare time. His sets roam locally and internationally, maintaining a distinct melodic groove. In 2016, he launched his record label Detroit Vinyl Room. DVR focuses on vinyl only releases from people who see music not as a hobby but as a method for sharing their spirit with the world. Norm Talley, Gari Romalis, Aprl Jnn, MGUN and more have featured on past compilations. In 2022, Prieto released his solo EP, 909 Dreams, on his new label Detroit Sound Odyssey, a vinyl and digital outlet for his own productions.
Isaac is a regular in Detroit and Chicago venues such as TV Lounge, Arbella and Motor City Wine, and currently holds a residency at UFO Factory with the goal of promoting diversity and inclusion with his bookings. He has played in Mexico, Europe, and local festivals such as Charivari and Tech-Troit, but 2022 will be his first year playing Movement at Hart Plaza.
