Bad Beat, also known as Tino BadBeat, is a Las Vegas-based DJ and producer whose sound is rooted in techno but shaped by a broader love of house and nightlife culture. Originally from Ciudad Juárez, Mexico, he built his style through years of digging into different genres, but techno has remained the signature lane that defines him most.
He has been active since 1999, starting out on vinyl and gradually building a name across the Las Vegas scene through sets at spots like Tacos & Beer, Body English, Marquee, Vanguard, Beauty Bar, Artifice, Artisan, Ghost Bar, House of Blues, Foundation Room, and The Joint. Beyond DJing, he has also been involved in bringing artists to town and helping shape the local scene, including organizing the underground event Techno Taco Tuesday and working with names like Coyu, Fur Coat, Adam Beyer, Joseph Capriati, Matthias Tanzmann, and John Acquaviva.
