Coming out of the bubbling Chicago dance scene is budding eighteen-year-old producer Aguila.

Gaining support from the likes of Patrick Baker, Taneli, Lane 8, Kahwe, Jett and more, his debut release on Swedish label Mareld, "Yewsa" delivers a blend of atmospheric bass house with the sounds and elements of downtempo. 

Opening track "An Ode To Tycho" does just that with chock-full reverb-laden pads and gritty taped melodies, it pays tribute to the mutli-talented producer and graphic designer, Scott Hansen.

Taking inspiration from the likes of Lane 8, Kahwe, Fort Romeau and Dauwd, "Hay Yew" brings forth a much more dancefloor approach to the table. Warm surrounding pads, lingering vocals and bouncing bass mix up the flow of the EP.

Lastly, "Time" and "This Stuff"  finish the EP off on a more atmospheric garage house note.

An Ode To Tycho

Guest mix for @aka_r-ss Counterbalance show on December 13, 2020. One of my favorite mixes I've ever done—lots of tech house and techno influences weaved through. Inspired by the b2b sessions r.ss and I had in their basement.

Counterbalance (Guest Mix) (12.13.20)

Got heavily into 90's house remixes of pop tracks—thought I'd give it a go.



Michael Jackson - Who Is It (Aguila's Dub)

Inspired by Detroit and the Intelligent Techno UK movement of the early 90s. Was listening to loads of B-12, Nuron, Black Dog, Speedy J, Photek, & the Artificial Intelligence series to help calm down after an accident.

Originally a sketch that started out in 2018 for the loft parties I was helping run, it was finally completed in 2021. Road tested for five years, I’m glad it’s seeing the light of day!

How Do U Say…?

"During the autumn of last year, I felt somewhat uninspired by the music I was listening to and producing. Thinking it'd be fun to head down memory lane, I went through my old childhood CDs. It was refreshing to hear the sounds that made an impact in my life early on. Names like Sasha & Digweed, BT, Spooky, Way Out West and Hybrid among many other artists sprung up. The whole progressive sound and vibe started making its way back into my music—and I welcomed it wholeheartedly. 

The plucky-long melodies and euphoric pads that swelled and thinned out. Infectious grooves, rolling basslines and the smooth vocals that adorned the era. I was carefree, the hands-up-in-the-air type with goosebumps that blanketed your body; I was a child again. Enlivened by the newfound inspiration, a surge of tracks and remixes made their way out. 

One of which was this one—my little 'Aries' bootleg remix of BT and Taylor's famous 1995 hit, 'Anomaly - Calling Your Name'. As it's my twentieth birthday today, I wanted to give a little gift to celebrate. My only wish being that you share and stay, as there's more to come."

My Entry for Boys Noize’s ‘Cerebral’ Remix Contest.

‘Cerebral’ is from Boys Noize’s recent Strictly Raw Vol. 1 EP. 

For the remix I wanted to go in a completely different direction of the original track but still retain the in-your-face energy yet keep it dancy. In doing so, I opted to go in a very Chicago-vibe inspired by the second wave of Chicago house artists like DJ Sneak, Paul Johnson and Green Velvet along with Daft Punk’s semi-live DJ sets from their early days. 

The remix stays true to the vibe that the EP set out—strictly raw. I sought out to emulate just a 909, two SP-1200s, simple effects and started and recorded in a day (like a lot of house in the formative years). I also wanted to add a hint of voguing (for you househeads you’ll immediately notice what I’m talking about).

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

Just wanted to drop off a little gift. These previously unreleased tracks were recorded between December '14—March '15 and eventually lead to 'What's Twilo?'. These tracks were greatly influenced and inspired by the work of the progressive house movement of the early-to-mid nineties.
