Baza creativității este sunetul melodic al sunetelor minimale
Aestet creează nopți stranii unde minimalul, deep house-ul și tech house-ul devin portaluri spre alte lumi. Sunetele sale hipnotice și structurile neobișnuite dizolvă granițele realității, transformând fiecare set într-o călătorie misterioasă. Muzica lui nu explică, ci vrăjește — fiecare ritm e o enigmă, fiecare pauză, o invitație spre necunoscut.

The basis of creativity is the melodic sound of minimal sounds
Aestet crafts strange nights where minimal, deep house, and tech house become portals to other worlds. His hypnotic sounds and unusual structures dissolve the boundaries of reality, turning each set into a mysterious journey. His music doesn’t explain—it enchants; every rhythm is a riddle, every pause an invitation to the unknown.

From Finland, based in Palma de Mallorca. In love whit music i was just a child. It was in 2010 that i decided to start producing electronic music. My style as a DJ would define flexible, adapting to every moment , inspirited by Deep house, Deep Tech , Minimal and recently delving into the darkest of Micro House and Dub Techno.
After so many years, what interests me the most is the connection with people and being able to feel the satisfaction of good music in the soul of others!

Stefan Radu aka Pako is a Bucharest-based DJ with a strong and lasting passion for electronic music. He started mixing and collecting vinyl when he was very young and constantly worked on improving his skills and expanding his vision. His style is deeply rooted in the old-school Detroit techno and Chicago house movements to which eclectic and modern shades of minimal, microhouse, breakbeat and dub are elegantly included in order to always deliver complex narratives through his selections. He also finds inspiration in jazz, funk, hip-hop, trip-hop or other genres and from time to time he strays from the classic 4/4 rhythms, dropping lounge vibes or experimental fusions.

Throughout time, Pako performed at numerous events in places like Eden, Control, Motiv, Baraka, Manasia, Spatiu Tehnic, Molotov Vama Veche, Club Stereo and Club43 in the UK as well as Repeat Bar in Berlin, sharing the decks with artists like Fouchat, Gemini Bros, Giuser, Dragusin, Posh, Vlad Dinu, Tomasan and Metafore, Fish Go Deep, Duff Disco, among others.
