MedusaMoon (Neurodiverse) Thank you for taking the time to listen to my music. I have completed 2 albums that will be released this year: On the 07/09/25 “songs from the attic” will be released and again on 09/10/2025 “breaking hearts and wrecking homes” is out, on the 23/11/25. These are 30 produced tracks I did not release and so I thought I would upload them onto YouTube onto my channel. 
I am Neurodiverse, and I have dyslexia and dyspraxia. Dyspraxia is the annoying one as it means I have limited guitar skills, as my motor skills are weak. I have, however, found a way to play that can at least support my vocals. All these songs have been written by me, both the music and the words, and I have a total of 63 songs to date. I wrote them all within 6 months, and it was blood, sweat and tears. But here I want to write and sing, as singing is my medication. Did you know that singing releases Oxytocin (the love hormone) and dopamine (the feel-good hormone)?  By design, we are incredible human beings.  I am autistic, too, which means that standing in front of a crowd is more frightening than anything frightening. So playing live is a no, and all I can do is express myself the best I know how – singing!
My music is called Gothic Folk, as it is dark and melancholic.  I write about the reality of existence. I write about the pain, hurt, sorrow and heartache of love and life.  Some songs that have been written are drawn from my personal experiences, and others are written about something or someone who has affected me in some way. I started writing poetry from a young age as a form of self-expression, as I could never find the words to express myself unless they were written down.  Suddenly, writing poetry became my solace and also a form of escapism into a world that made sense, as the world I was living in did not make any sense. Music was my friend when others were not able to be, and it was the thing that helped me through the most challenging years of my life. 
My influences range from Beethoven to Slayer and some of the greatest folk singers and musicians. My other influences are Tori Amos, Lana Rey, Leonardo Cohen, Bob Dylan and Damien Rice, to name a few. 

Thank you to my family, friends and everyone who has supported me!

Based in the beautiful and vibrant city of Madrid, Spanish DJ and Producer Extraordinaire - Rayko has been a leading light in the clubbing scene around Europe and beyond, since he founded his magnificent Rare Wiri label in 2008 where he has released some of the coolest names out there during all these years like Daniele Baldelli, Man Parrish, Gazeebo, Ilija Rudman, Ichisan, Spirit Catcher, Mushrooms Project, or Eric Duncan among many others

His very unique sound and personality, and incredible work ethic, coupled with  unstoppable creative genius have given Rayko the momentum and consistency to stack up a number of great achievements in his genres, although being such a humble and down to earth guy, he will tell you that he just loves what he does and is perpetually inspired to keep on doing it! 

Deeply rooted in the golden era of the ‘70s and ‘80s, Rayko’s influences are masterfully interpreted and transformed into modern day dancefloor bombs with great vision. His love affair with the evolution of synthesizers and vintage drum machines has gone on to heavily fuel his sound today, in addition to sonic desires of 80s Rock evident in his catalogue, that displays such exquisite musical versatility. 

Rayko is very proud to have featured on over fifty great vinyl releases, spread across labels such as Eskimo, Is it Balearic?, Whisky Disco, Lumberjacks in Hell, and Editorial, including two studio albums on Nang Recordings, in addition to over two hundred digital releases. Many of these titles have been repeatedly featured in Top 10 sales charts, with some releases making it to the coveted number one position on platforms like Juno Download, Beatport, and Traxsource. His talents as a remixer have been in constant high demand, with invitations from coveted Artists like Psychemagik, Sirs, In Flagranti, Roberto Rodriguez, or Dj Rocca, to name a few, calling upon his exceptional skills.

In his capacity as DJ, Rayko is much loved wherever he goes. He has toured extensively, having played in some of the best clubs and festivals all over the world,  from London, Berlin, San Diego, Ibiza, Paris, Milan, San Francisco, Tulum, Barcelona, Manchester, Los Angeles, Medellin, Cairo, Miami, Istanbul, Moscow, Tokyo, Mexico City, Liverpool, Oslo, Rio de Janeiro, Bali, to Lebanon and beyond, he continues to show love to his huge following, who are collectively responsible for  his incredible global streaming numbers of over six million plays on Spotify, Soundcloud and YouTube.

As his fantastic catalogue continues to expand through the years, Rayko has become one of the most loved names in modern Disco.
