For our first release, we are presenting you a raw insight of our older recorded jams. We were trying to recreate the vibes of our sessions and also, experimenting few different ways to produce music; based on one take recordings, live cuts and improvisations. It’s ended up by being an eclectic blending of raw and groovy minimal techno, sparkled with broken rhythms, micro sampling experiments, punchy percussions, deeper moods and unexpected constructions.... Nothing pre-established in our sounds, just the beginning of something.

Somewhere between the realm of reality and ethereal techinicolor fantasies, you’ll find Amanda Haze. Think house music—but on Mars. With trance-inducing lyrics and melodies juxtaposed against electrifying production, the 23-year-old DJ and now producer has performed amongst prominent musicians like Dion Timmer, Serge Devant, Cut Snake, Claptone and many more.

Over the last few years, Amanda has continuously drawn inspiration from various musical meccas, from her time spent in European cities like Berlin, Paris, and Amsterdam to her recent residency in Bushwick. In college, she headlined Syracuse University’s silent disco during the school’s sold-out fall festival that featured A$AP Ferg, Playboy Carti, and Loud Luxury. She has since gone on to perform live at esteemed New York venues like House of Yes, Soho Grand Hotel, The VNYL, Make Believe at the Sixty Les, William Vale Hotel Rooftop and The Williamsburg Hotel. In Miami, she’s been spotted spinning at Faena during the 2019 Art Basel Extravaganza—all the while incorporating analog Euro tracks and synthesizer machines. She produces primarily on Ableton Live, using a Roland tr8 drum machine and a Roland tb-303 bass line synthesizer. 

At her sets, listeners will often hear her mixing a highly curated repertoire of tracks and even performing several of her own original songs. The end result defies any one genre; it’s a deeply satisfying hybrid of melodic techno, organic downtempo, and deep house, amongst other things. In 2019, Amanda released her signed single “Next Degree,” which she not only produced but performed vocals on.

While music is the primary extension of Amanda’s creative suite, she also has garnered an impressive array of experience with creative direction, styling, graphic design, and marketing. Having worked at The Brooklyn Mirage, First Gen Records, and with various notable fashion brands and publications, the artist has seamlessly implemented her professional experience into her musical process, a process that she has become undeniably and irrevocably obsessed with. 

She intends to release her newest single, Dreamer Mode early this year in February 2021. Stay tuned.

"Sometimes, darkness is not just an absence of light, but a turning point. A space where you stop, you face everything you have been and what you can no longer be. Every transformation entails changes, and to start a new path, it is necessary to leave something behind." - Trømmel / It can't always be night

JC, es un reconocido videocreador y dj de las Rias Baixas. Comenzo a pinchar hace diez años en el Bolboreta Club, local da ciudad de Pontevedra en el que se mantuvo varios anos como dj de referencia. Desde entonces ha pinchado en diversos locales, como el Underground en O Grove, Blend en A Coruña ou o Real 10 en Pontevedra. Ademas, ha participado en eventos como el Boa Vila Pride (fiesta organizada por el Concello de Pontevedra para celebrar o Día do Orgullo Gay), o Zero Rock o el ya célebre After Party del festival Cultura Quente en Caldas. A lo largo de este tiempo JC supo adaptar sus sesiones a nuevos horarios, ofreciendo sesiones vermú o sesiones de tarde en diversas ciudades. Su trabajo non es una cuestión de estilo, si no una cuestión de sensaciones, e viene definido por la luminosidad, e un aura agradable que invita al movemiento. 

JC traslada su pasión por música a su labor como director creativo y realizador de el Espejo Mágico Producciones, una empresa dedicada principalmente al eje audiovisual, donde la música que acompaña a las imágenes es parte fundamental y referencial de su trabajo.
