Javier Gantz, a techno DJ and producer based in Madrid, has transcended the barriers of electronic music since he ventured behind the decks in 2016. His devotion to merging the sounds that have always captivated him has forged a distinctive and passionate career in the Madrid underground scene.

His journey began at Aback (Stardust Madrid), where he served as a resident for a year. Over time, he has expanded his musical presence, taking his sessions to various clubs in the city, such as Pirandello, Stella, DVST, Siroco, LASOCIACIØN, or Utopia Club, where he continues as a resident, as well as playing an active role as a promoter.

Influenced by classic masters such as Regis and James Ruskin, as well as contemporary visionaries like Reeko and Blawan, Javier Gantz's sets are experiences loaded with enveloping textures, powerful basslines, hypnotic synthesizers, and bold experimental productions. Each session tells a sonic story that transports you to an atmosphere where intensity grows progressively.

Since 2021, he has also become interested in production, having already released on renowned labels such as Illegal Alien, Selected Records, and Utopia Society, a label of wich he is a co-owner.

Set recorded in 2021, with music acquired during the year.

Antifa is my cousin.  I heard some people were looking for her.  Since I like to be helpful when I can, she was in Alexandria last time I talked to her, three weeks ago.  I think she mentioned going to Zurich in the near future.

Is it 1984 already?!?!

I have not been able to recover access to my other account [https://soundcloud.com/ha-kekong] for a couple of years.  I have tried a few times to get back into it but SoundCloud doesn't trust me.  Same phone number, same email addresses, and they still claim that they can't verify my identity.  I created that account about three years ago as a substitute to my regular account which SoundCloud temporarily closed.  They closed it as part of some upgrade procedure in their system, the result of a bug that affected many accounts, about two years ago.  Since SC did not inform its users I didn't know if that was permanent or not, so I created that other account which I can't access.  Don't be mad if I have not replied to your message in the past two years, that's because I never got them ; ) ... You can always reach me here though.
...

This one here (957729823) is for regular folks.

I love you, both.

You can't see it because of the angle with which I took the shot, aiming down, but beyond those blocks is the sea.  To the left is the Mediterranean, to the right is the Atlantic Ocean.  No it's not Gibraltar, but a little bit further West. ... Actually I checked recently and it is further North more than West, I thought I was facing South when in fact I probably was facing the Atlantic ocean, which is why I suppose the waves were of a decent size where we were.

I then went ahead and butchered his work with a borrowed helmet.
... Sorry Joe. =(

I'm trying to promote what I think is good music, so if you want to help out a bit I'd rather you [like] or [repost] my *playlists* rather than my field recordings, if you don't mind, unless you are a die hard fan of those things. Thank you ; )

I speak French, so if you send me a private message, and that you are a francophone, please write in French, thank you.  ... I mean, you don't absolutely have to, but I would prefer it. 

All my field recordings (except for when I record a person) are public, freely downloadable by anyone who is able to click on the button.  I encourage anyone interested to use them in any way whatsoever, on purpose or accidentally. No need for permissions or credits or any other kind  of administrative maneuvers.
...

Anarchists give me hope.

I'm a big fan of EFF.  Love ya EFF.  (no connection with the above line)
... and of course Richard Stallman and Linux and all the others.  Bless yous.

Now don't be lazy, go find out what it is this "EFF" that I'm talking about.  I'll give you a hint: it has to do with computers.

You have a nice day now.  Hugs & Kisses.

Support all styles and genres of music.
