THE MAGICAL MANDRAKE

Dear Mandrakians,

The last stop on my 2022 European tour was The Mandrake Hotel’s 5th birthday, a show that I had been looking forward to for so long. 

I can confidently say that The Mandrake experience was a life changing, artistically inspiring, and energy recharging moment for me. The deep rooted spiritual intention & philosophy driven by the hotel’s owner, Rami, was seen in every detail of the hotel & the production but felt stronger when i had the opportunity to meet him after my performance. 

An energetic exchange took place when he gave me hug to say thanks for the music and upon the touching heads a magnetic field was generated, it was a soul enriching moment full of love & positivity. It felt as though our souls had joined for a moment. As our hug continued Rami begun to download his health, wisdom & knowledge into my energy field, I felt completely enlightened, my nervous system recharged , finally the misted COVID fog had been broken.

This mix I put together is a journey into the psychedelic,  exotic,  space rock, mystical western influenced deep organic house & tribal cosmic rhythms.

▌I Could you take us through a day in your life, from a possible morning routine through to your work?
Hello everyone! Well, I have recently become a father so my routine has changed remarkably in a very short time, but basically 70% of my day is focused on music. Listening to demos for my labels, discovering new music for my sets, producing new songs (or at least trying to finish the ones I started earlier), running the labels' schedule of podcasts & radio shows, and during the pandemic between various alternative jobs ( and not very satisfactory) that I did to survive I decided to fulfill my dream of having my own vinyl store, which although it is online also demands a lot of time, and of course go on tour through clubs and festivals to play music, which without a doubt It is the reward for all the sacrifice and dedication mentioned above. The other 30% of my day is now spent spending time with my baby, eating and sleeping (although with very little success hehe)

▌II What’s your favorite club and what’s your favorite festival - explain why!
This is an easy question to answer: Sisyphos in Berlin!
Why?: I am from Argentina, where parties usually last 6 hours, and very rarely in events in the afternoon plus the evening you can have 12 hours of partying, after that if you want to continue you have to go to an after party and In general, most of the time the music and the sound system are not so good, and if you are one of the brave ones who wants to continue the party, you have to go to the after of the after, and as expected, the situation only gets worse.
In addition to the wild party style from Friday to Monday morning that guarantees you can go anytime and have fun, it also has all the amenities so you can get stuck in that rave bubble without missing a thing, the pizza is very tasty and ideal to recover a little energy after many hours of dancing, the kiosk can provide everything you forgot at home, and the whole team is very funny, we have shared so many laughs & good moments in there!
Also the fact that the line ups are somehow secret until you arrive there and the booking team is not only focused on big names like other Clubs gives you the possibility to discover many artists that maybe are not very popular but are playing amazing music! I have discovered many DJ's and Producers that were totally off my radar and I have even been able to create many friendships that have lasted over time. 
I think it goes without saying that the Wintergarten it's my favorite place to play.

▌III What’s your favorite drink while being behind the decks in the Club?
I do love Mezcal <3 
And if i am in Germany, i love to drink Spezi! They dont have that magical & perfect drink in many sides of the world!

SET CRISAZCAR AETERNA SESSIONS 2 X BESTIARIO

SET CRISAZCAR AETERNA SESSIONS X BESTIARIO

Here is a re-recorded tech-house set from my festival debut at Lumen Open Air! Due to a thunderstorm I had to finish my set earlier and re-record it - but I integrated some surprises from the OG recording - hope you enjoy the set ;)

Lumen Open Air Tech-House Set (re-recorded)

A set recorded during my performance at a End-of-Year Event at the company where I work - and in fact, a company party 3 years ago was my first ever gig :) 
I played along with different house genres (as I always do haha) and started with dark afro house/afro tech to then build up the set to a more tech-housy and energetic vibe. So be ready for some surprises ;) 

End of year House Cocktail

This is the audio from my Youtube set:

Location: MH5 Rooftop, Munich

Rooftop Grooves @ MH5, Munich

If you’ve ever used music as a way to feel, heal, or simply breathe, this one’s for you.
This mix was recorded at home, in one of those moments when music says more than words ever could.

It’s part of a personal journey: a way to process emotions and channel them through sound.

Love, memory, reflection... it’s all in there, unspoken but deeply felt.
I remember exactly how I felt on that day, and I just needed a way out.
