Christian Smith is one of the world’s leading exponents of techno, both as a DJ and producer he is always bold and innovative. With his output in recent years it is hard to imagine a list of prolific producers without his name towards the top. He has been at the top of his game for over two decades with his trademark groovy techno.

Although Swedish by birth, Christian spent most of his childhood years in Frankfurt, Germany which no doubt played an unexpected role in determining his musical tastes from a young age. After spending time in the US studying, Christian moved to Sao Paulo, Brazil playing the best clubs in the city and surrounding regions, where he still loves to play today and continues to have a very big following.

In 1995 he started his label Tronic, since then it has dominated the charts with releases from Christian himself and the likes of ANNA, Enrico Sangiuliano, Paco Osuna, Drunken Kong, Wehbba, Ramon Tapia, and more. The label has been the top selling techno label in the world according to Beatport, and is soon to celebrate its 500th release.
Tronic also has a weekly show which is now syndicated to over 100 stations worldwide, their 500th show was celebrated with special guest Carl Cox and now in 2022, they are already fast approaching the 600th episode.

Christian has dominated the charts and DJ’s playlists with a steady flow of releases on many high profile labels like Drumcode, Filth On Acid, Trick, Symbolism, Bedrock, and Tronic. His last EP on Tronic reached #1 spot on Beatport in both Techno and Electro in January of 2024. During the pandemic, Christian had a weekly Tronic Thursday stream which has reached over 10M people. On the remix front, Christian has recently reworked a track by UK hip hop superstar "Stormzy". His music is regularly featured on Spotify's biggest playlists and Christian is currently enjoying a big boost in his career.

Christian also ventured into his own branded night in Ibiza at mega club Eden. His first season on the Island in 2019 had 15 consecutive weeks of events and was a huge success. Christian was also invited to host Tronic events all over the world from Tokyo, Detroit, Los Angeles, and London amongst many others.

So keep your eyes peeled, and if you can’t wait until then, you can always go to Christian’s Soundcloud for the latest on the radio show.

TECHNO can activate me the most primitive and basic instincts, it causes the subconscious and wake caveman who is asleep inside of me.
Controlling my mind and body to the rhythm of their kicks and claps, and the frenzied madness Ride.

TECHNO consegue ativar em mim os instintos mais primitivos e básicos, provoca o subconsciente e acorda o homem das cavernas que fica adormecido dentro da minha pessoa.
Controlando minha mente e corpo no ritmo dos seus kicks e claps, e na loucura frenética do Ride.
E me vejo possuído pela sua métrica o que me leva sempre ao encontro das Technics (pick ups).
E so consigo voltar ao pseudo normal depois de algumas horas tocando em transe profundo, todo cansado de tanto dançar e se contorcer nas mixagens.
Nunca procurei cura pra isso e se alguém achar, que fique bem longe de mim.

A bit of dj'n, a bit of production.  Music can make the difference.
