I've been listening to electronic music since I was old enough to tune into the John Peel show on Radio 1. Peel first introduced me to Chicago House, Detroit Electro and Rap. I would listen to an entire show with my finger hovering over the record button of my 'tape-recorder' close to the radio speaker just to record whatever 3 electronic imports he would play each night. I wish I'd kept those recordings.
From the moment I first heard 'Roxanne Shante' I sought out everything I could ranging from Kraftwerk, Mike Oldfield, Kurtis Mantronik, Africa Bambata, Grandmaster Flash, Gorgio Morodor, Axel-F, Jean Michel Jarre and just about anyone who used a synth to make music! With the arrival of House in the mid-late 80's the likes of Marshall Jefferson, Frankie Knuckles, Farley Jackmaster Funk, Steve Silk Hurley, Adonis and many more American underground House producers, the music had developed into a new, seriously exciting phenomena.
Music progressed at pace with House and Acid imports driving change, the UK in particular underwent an epiphany of sorts in the 80's and 90's. From Break-Dancing to New Romanticism, the music developed, finally morphing into the early genres of Acid Trance, Techno and Progressive Trance. Heavily influenced by American and underground Dutch and German artists and with the advent of clubbing and non-speaking mixing DJ's, it opened up a Pandora's box of new music, influences, sounds and styles. What that amounted to for me (and most others like me) was an ever-growing range of electronic music that was continually breaking free from pigeon-holes and mainstream pop culture. Electronic music had become the new classical music of a generation.
I can only say that electronic or computer music has evolved beautifully in the past 40 years and I love it as much now as the day I first heard John Peel play fantastic American imports.
I'm not anything more than a bedroom DJ and electronic music enthusiast. I have the greatest admiration for those who DJ publicly and seek to build a following or career from DJing, but that’s not a path I’ve tried to follow. I do love to put together great tunes, so for me using this sort of platform for sharing music is perfect for me. I do mixes both on my decks and using Ableton, as sometimes I find it easier to create a journey through that medium. 
As for making music, I’m slowly finding my way around Ableton in order to bring life to the musical ideas rolling around my head. 
Anyway, I hope you enjoy the mixes I post, please give me some feedback and if nothing else, support the artists themselves and buy their music.

Electronic music has been a part of MORAES’ life since he was a child. Growing up listening to giants such as Gigi D’Agostino, Alex Gaudino, Darude, Zombie Nation, among others, through the influence of his father, the fascination with synthetic sound was inevitable. But it was in 2012, through a live broadcast on YouTube, that techno entered his radar. The journey, however, was marked by a broad musical exploration.
The search for a musical experience greater than just listening led him to take his first mixing course in 2017. After a few months searching for his sound identity, in 2018 he came into contact with Melodic Techno. With continuous refinement, his work soon attracted attention, leading him to participate in the prestigious ALATAJ Talentos series and the following year, he was featured in the Rising series, by MELODIC EYES.
The search for artistic evolution led MORAES to a new chapter: Hypnotic/Raw Techno. The transition opened doors to record for influential collectives such as Coletivo Morph (SP) and PhantomCorp (Mexico), consolidating his immersive and hypnotic sound signature. The recognition didn't stop there. At the end of 2023, he won the contest of the collective Underground Militia (Londrina-PR), guaranteeing a space in the February 2024 edition. The synergy was so strong that, since then, in a partnership with the collective, he has shared line-ups with big names in the underground scene.
​With precise sets and immersive sound narratives, he doesn't just play, he seeks to transport his audience to dimensions where music is the only guide.
