Indie alternative rock with folk, jazz, and neo-soul influence

From the bustling streets of Brooklyn, a prodigious talent emerges in the form of "illectronic." This remarkable DJ and music producer exemplifies the very essence of resilience, creativity, and passion in the world of electronic music.

His upbringing in Brooklyn wasn't just about geography; it was about the spirit, the rhythm, and the stories these streets whispered. From an early age, he was surrounded by a symphony of sounds, from the hip-hop anthems echoing in the alleyways to the EDM beats blasting from local clubs. Music icons such as Jonathan Peters, Eric Prydz, Wu-Tang Clan, and NAS served as his earliest inspirations, shaping his taste and pushing him towards the pursuit of a career in music.

His professional journey, however, was anything but smooth. In a narrative reminiscent of rap legend Eminem, he experienced trials that tested his mettle. From confronting the challenges of substance abuse to the traumatic experience of a car accident, his life has been a whirlwind of highs and lows. Yet, much like Eminem, he harnessed these adversities, channeling them into his music, infusing each track with raw emotion and authentic experience.

Through this journey, Vibal Records was born. Co-founded with DJ Santi Fabian, the label stands as a testament to his unyielding dedication to the electronic music scene. Together, they've masterminded collaborations, especially with gifted female vocalists, broadening the scope and appeal of their music. Each track, whether it's the soulful ‘Ezra Mi Vida’, the electrifying ‘We All Love Lucy’ (First Studio Session as Vibal), or the entrancing ‘Testimony’, showcases illectronic's versatile and innovative style.

But his talents don't just stop at producing music. His multifaceted nature has him wearing various hats— a singer, dancer, writer, and even a polyglot, conversant in English, Spanish, and Hebrew. Friends often jestingly label him a prophet. Yet, with genuine modesty, he claims he's merely driven by the ambition to emulate his idols.

Central to his life's journey is the unwavering beacon of hope: his son. Amidst the whirlwind of his career, his son remains his grounding force, the inspiration behind every beat and every lyric.

Today, as he navigates the vast landscape of electronic music, illectronic's passion remains undeterred. He's not just creating tracks; he's crafting experiences. And as he gears up to release more tracks and capture more hearts, the world stands ready, eagerly awaiting the next chapter in this Brooklyn maestro's tale.
