Since 2012, Dstorsion is a multi-genre record label with its own distorted sound and a clear cultural extraction from the Pasillo. Also part of Antena Festival.

Diego Celi was born  in Quito Ecuador, is Father, great music lover, stimulated him with electronic sounds ever since he was in his Mother´s womb.

He was strongly influenced by George Ivanovitch Gurdjieff´s music, which would mark his style for the rest of his life.

The years went by, and throughout rock music, Diego discovered many influences; progressive sounds, dark atmospheres, ascetic moments, severe depression and even the pop spirit from some bands, inspired him to search and eventually find a unique musical balance, which has been eagerly developed throughout his entire trajectory.

Diego starts to dream with music being a reality in his life. 

At age nineteen, he formed a rock band with his brother and three  friends, called ¨Calle Fosforera¨, and throughout his band he began to release that artistic tension he had inside, and performs his fist concert as the guitarist and the lead singer of the band. But, little time went by before his first encounter with electronic music. This encounter with electronic music absolutely marked him, and he decided to dedicate it all his time. He began to surround himself by the musical environment, and where he also met several dj´s, with whom he founded Mindsounds in 2002. Mindsounds was the first electronic record label in Ecuador.

2010 was a year of a lot of connection and a great rest. Diego gathered together in strong and creative platform, surrounded with new musicians and after some months of work, the general conception of the project is reached. This project includes some brands such as: The music label "Dstorsion", and ¨Antena¨, the brand & festival .

Around 2012, the announcement of his first albums; which expresses the absolute true feelings of his music and his influences, and innovating sounds can be clearly appreciated.:.

Diego Celi, nació en Quito - Ecuador. Su Padre, gran melómano, lo estimuló con sonidos electrónicos desde que estuvo en el vientre de su madre.

A temprana edad,  se ve fuertemente influenciado por la música de George Ivanovitch Gurdjieff, hecho que marcaría su estilo para toda su vida.

Los años transcurrieron y en el rock encontró varias influencias; sonidos progresivos, atmósferas oscuras, momentos ascéticos, la depresión agresiva e incluso el espíritu pop de algunas bandas, lo envolvieron para buscar y así encontrar un equilibrio musical único que ha sido desarrollado a lo largo de toda su trayectoria.

Así, Diego empieza a soñar en la música como una realidad en su vida.

A los 19 años, con su hermano y tres grandes amigos, reúnen una banda de rock llamada Calle Fosforera, con la cual lanzan su primer concierto siendo guitarrista y vocalista de la misma. Sin embargo, poco tiempo paso antes de su primer encuentro con la música electrónica. Encuentro que lo marco absolutamente para  todo su tiempo y dedicación. Así empieza a rodearse del medio y conocer a varios djs con los cuales se funda en el 2002 Mindsounds, colectivo el cual a la postre sería el primer sello disquero de su país.

El 2010 fue un año de mucha conexión. Diego se reúne en una fuerte plataforma creativa con nuevos músicos y después de meses de trabajo, se alcanza la concepción general del proyecto que incluyen algunas marcas: El sello disquero Dstorsion,  "Antena",  el festival y marca.

Para finales del 2012 lanzó el primer albúm para su sello, " El universo en un árbol", con el cual se expresa el sentir absoluto de su música y de sus influencias,  en el que se percibe claramente sonidos innovadores de Dstorsion .:.
