Versatile artist, he is mainly a stage-designer. Always interested in arts, he decided to get into music in 2006, when he bought on-purpose software and created a little studio in his apartment. His tracks were mainly conceived for live performances, but later his contacts with some net labels like Exprezoo and Mir Music brought in ideas for new projects. Inspired from labels like Playhouse, Perlon and Klang he started with an initial micro-house sound, later enriched by funky and minimal influences. His debut
as composer was In December 2008 when he published his first vinyl Ep on Mosaiko Musik called CLB, played by Jeff Samuel and Anderson Noise who putted it in a released mix for the compilation by La Terraza Bcn (Circle Music).
His second vinyl was for him the turning point. The Gosh! Ep released on April 2008 has been putted in most important tracklist played around the world as Richie Hawtin’s. During the summer time he took a period in wich he started to study other subgenres of electronic music as dub, housy, deep and jazzy thinking about his next project as "Ragga Fonda".
As this new nick he published on Mosaiko Limited in September 2008 a new 12” called “Memories” Ep featuring a brazilian vocalist Luisa De Abreu. Its sound had purchased a deep sprit and Libell, the b side of this records, has been one of the best seller in that year. In 2009 he collaborates with Metroline Limited where public a new vinyl: Road to Alberqueque. This record marks a further evolutione of its sound. We find dub, house and detroitish elements. During the same year he published on Popnorama, Kina Music and Mutekki. Twin Peaks Ep again on Metroline it marks a new turn, definitely its sound is a fusion between house old skool with dub techno and a lot of different djs around the world have supported this release. At the same time he created a new project "Horacio" with his friend Massimo Di Lena better know as Massi Dl. Some of their influences for this project are : pure old skool house, dub, funky, deep and techno chicago, pleasuring us with some out of mind, eclectic and without a doubt some unforgettable dance-floor killer tracks. Horacio Ep on the hystorical underground label Raum Musik was a tipp release of summer 2009 played by most important djs of te world like Ricardo Villalobos, Sven Vaeth, Luciano, Raresh, Federico Molinari and many others. Next releases will be out on Welt Sonds, Exprezoo and on Cynosure Recordings like Horacio.
