The founder of his own Waxhead Records label, Acosta remixed everyone from b-52's to Ultra Nate in additiong to issuing his own records, which include 1997's Miami Beach Bash, Volume 2 and 2000's Awake. The double series Release: AM Edition and Release: PM Edition followed in early 2001. He and trance guru ATB collaborated on Trance Nation AMerica, Volume 2 later that summer.
