Famous DJs Rampa and &ME, part of the Keinemusik collective, were denied entry at the exclusive Mía Tulum beach club, sparking a wave of criticism on social media. The incident was captured on video and shared on TikTok by user “@OscarPGC.” The footage shows a security guard preventing the musicians and their team from entering the beach club, repeatedly pushing them away.
The video has since garnered nearly one million views, prompting outrage from followers and tourists who deemed the treatment unacceptable. Prior to the incident, the DJs were approached by a group of around 30 fans asking for photos and autographs. Videos of this friendly interaction quickly spread online, showing the musicians enjoying a casual walk on the beaches of Tulum.
The harsh response from the Mía Tulum club's security staff surprised onlookers and online viewers, with many labeling it as discriminatory and contrary to the welcoming nature of the popular tourist destination. However, some defended the security guard, arguing he was simply doing his job.
Rampa and &ME, along with Adam Port, form the acclaimed trio Keinemusik. They were in Mexico to perform at the Zamna 2025 festival, an event that has positioned Tulum as a key destination in the global electronic music scene since 2017. The festival is known for its exclusive atmosphere and high-quality lineups, attracting thousands of attendees each year.
Keinemusik's previous performance at Zamna in 2020 was a hit, sharing the stage with other electronic music heavyweights such as Afterlife, Diplo, Adam Beyer, Black Coffee, and Damian Lazarus. Their return in 2025 was highly anticipated, but this unfortunate incident at Mía Tulum has cast a shadow over their experience.
As of now, the beach club has not released any official statement regarding the incident. Meanwhile, Keinemusik's fans continue to voice their support for the artists and are calling for a public apology.
