Jigitz, a Brooklyn-based EDM artist originally from Albuquerque, New Mexico. He built his sound around UK/speed garage music, and his live sets are known for being very dancefloor-focused. Jigitz’s breakout track “tell you straight” helped push him into a much bigger audience, and his debut album, “50 ballerinas,” released in August 2026. On Saturday, October 10, Jigitz played at the Ogden Theater in Denver, which did not have include ballerinas. The fall dates were built around performing in the round, right in the middle of the audience.
