Diafrix is an Australian hip hop duo originating from Footscray, Melbourne. Their music mixes funk, soul, reggae and dancehall.

Momo and Azmarino met in Footscray at the community art center hosted by Joelistics from TZU. Joelistics suggested they form a band, and they took his advice and formed Diafrix.

Diafrix has opened for such acts as Bliss n Eso, as well as international acts such as Macklemore and Ryan Lewis. Their song "Running It" was adopted as the official theme tune for the Western Bulldogs for 2013. Their music has been referred to as "anthemic" for the multicultural area they grew up in.

Specific influences on their music are diverse, ranging from Nas to Bob Marley to Fat Freddy’s Drop.

Momo was born in the Comoros Islands and Azmarino was born in Eritrea.
