MR. J - Live at ANTS, Ushuaia, Ibiza - 18th June 2016

Aigua is the brand new concept of DJ, producer and all round musical genius Javier Ferrer. Hailing from Ibiza, Javier grew up in the epicentre of electronic music and indeed was surrounded by music in all its forms from a very early age. His father was a member of a rock band, playing both the piano and guitar as well as singing in the group – and this spurned Javi to also try his hand at both playing and writing music. At just 15 years old, Javier was the lucky recipient of his first mixer and set of decks, and within just a few years he´d learnt the art of DJing and had begun to write his own music. Javi´s first purchase at 17 years old was a Roland 303 on which he learnt to sequence and from there he spent literally all his free time in his home based studio. When Cubase released their first plugin compatible program back in 1998 – Javi was first in line to add to his growing studio armoury. In fact this self taught musician has always been at the forefront of music when it comes to technology, and in 2001 when Ableton launched – he again was quick off the mark to purchase and train himself in what was to be his main tool of music going forward all the way until this very day. He picked up several qualifications on the way – becoming one of only 200 Ableton certified trainers in the world and also being part of the Ibiza Music Academy as a tutor himself in more recent years.
