Im spanish in the blood, but a nomad in the soul. After finishing my studies in Geography, end of 2000, I moved to Amsterdam. Before that I was into psychedelic/progressive/classic rock. I never went to a rave in the south of Spain were Im original from. I truly didn't understand the whole idea. But then, trance came through... That was april'01, just 3 months after I arrived. I got infected because of the free/outdoor/squat parties going on in town; the ELF spirit was still in the air, but I got there too late.... 2 months later I was organizing my first party, and only after 6 of them I began to mix. I believe it was meant to be, because it feels absolutely natural for me to spin. That, and the feeling of freedom that I got in the festivals made me realize I was in front of something that would change my life forever. In fact it was at Samothraki festival 2002 (small stage) where I listened the music that helped me to develop the style I have now.

I play exclusively psychedelic trance in all the possible forms: minimal, progressive, full on, psytech and darkpsy. That's why my style is changeable, either slow and groovy, fat and crunchy or bouncy and energetic... depends on the place I play, the audience and mostly the time of the day. My mixing level is very high, so i can blend different worlds/styles and tell a very psychedelic story. I like to bring people to a hypnotic state where dancing is as important as listening, where feelings and emotions blend with the music which is all around. As a dancer I learn where to find those elements and as a dj I can use them. You will always find me in the dancefloor diving into music with a big smile in my face.

I've been playing in Holland, Germany and Austria at major parties and festivals, and in Spain, Slovakia, Hungary, India and Mexico at small events Some artist I've been playing with: Magnetrixx, Bitmonx&Fabio, Ace Ventura, Andromeda, Sonus, Audiomatic, Vaishiyas, Neelix, Silicon Sound, Scorb, Deviant Species, Jaia,...among others
