🚀 Electric Mind: The Intergalactic Upgrade ⚡

We’re heading back to 2017 to refuel a classic. I’m proud to present the brand-new version of "Electric Mind".

This isn't just a rework; it’s a full-on Space Funk odyssey blended with high-octane Electro Funk energy. I’ve taken the original groove and launched it into a new orbit of syncopated basslines and cosmic synths.

The "Electric Mind" is back, and it's funkier than ever. Ready for liftoff? 🛸✨

Ilya Santana_Electric mind (Reimagined version)

Carmen Baía is a Glasgow-based DJ pushing eclectic, high-intensity sounds across the UK underground. Her sets flow between Latin-inspired percussion, jungle pressure, baile funk, and stripped-back house, creating a raw yet hypnotic energy on the dancefloor.

A longstanding resident with Breathe Glasgow and Radio Buena Vida, she has recently stepped onto bigger stages, including her debut at FLY Open Air. With sold-out shows in Glasgow, Edinburgh, and London, and appearances alongside Partiboi69, Chaos in the CBD, and Pangaea, Carmen has established herself as a rising force in the next wave of underground selectors.

Her instinctive approach to rhythm and fearless blend of styles make every set unpredictable, immersive, and deeply rooted in club culture.

----

Carmen weaves a high-voltage club narrative out of rubbery electro basslines, dry 808 knock, and tightly quantized drum machine patterns, sliding between skeletal, hypnotic minimalism and flashes of campy, maximal synth exuberance. She braids squelchy acid lines with robotic vocoder snippets, flickering hi-hats, and punchy claps, then offsets them with rolling toms and hand-percussion loops that add swing and propulsion. Gritty, slightly overdriven textures rub against bouncy, funk-laced grooves, while looped vocal fragments and elastic low-end pulses keep the mix playful rather than punishing. The result feels tactile and kinetic, a constant push-pull between mechanical precision and cheeky flamboyance, stitched together through rhythm-forward transitions and tightly controlled, body-first momentum.

Outta Limits Radio Show 20_3_2026

Stay For A While is a collection of late-night movements — somewhere between electronic funk, synth-driven pop, and quiet, introspective moments.

Built around groove, texture and subtle progression, the album leans into a mid-80s inspired sound without becoming nostalgic. Warm basslines, electric piano layers and evolving synth arrangements carry the music forward, while wordless vocal tones blend into the mix as part of the instrumentation rather than taking the spotlight.

Some tracks move with purpose, others take their time. There are moments of clarity, tension, release — and space in between.

This is not a club record, and not a background record either. It sits somewhere in the middle — meant to be played through, from start to finish.

Stay for a while.

Biography:

Ilya Santana is a name that echoes through the shimmering corridors of electronic music, particularly in the realms of space disco and cosmic funk. Born and raised in the Canary Islands, a place where the Atlantic meets the dust of Africa, Santana found himself drawn to the edges of sound early on—edges where melody could float, and rhythm didn’t have to march. He came up through the analog warmth of the ‘70s and the cold seduction of the ‘80s, and somehow fused both into his own kind of future nostalgia.

His career took root in the early 2000s, not through grand gestures but through consistency—a steady stream of releases that wound their way through labels like Balearic stalwarts Eskimo Recordings and Nang. Each track, a kind of ode to neon dreams and late-night drives, became a testament to Santana’s gift for atmosphere: his music doesn’t just play, it inhabits. There’s a cinematic quality to his work, like he’s scoring the movie of a life that’s never quite real but always feels familiar.

Ilya’s sound is less about chart-topping bravado and more about evocation. It lingers. It hums beneath the surface of memory. Through remix work, original compositions, and DJ sets that feel like journeys, Santana has shaped a career that’s both low-key and influential—an underground luminary lighting the way for those who understand that some of the best music doesn’t demand attention, it earns it.

Ilya is running his own record label "Astrolead recordings" specialized on the most underground side of Disco, Space/Cosmic disco, Retro and Synthwave.
Also started duties as a sound designer crafting sample/loops packages for "Loopmasters"

VCR Nightwaves is the synth-driven alter ego of a producer on a mission to bring the 1980s back to life. From Dreamwave, Synthwave, Synthpop, Electro-Funk, and touches of New Jack Swing, he crafts music that channels the heart of the era. Neon lights, analog warmth, and big emotional hooks.

With shimmering synths, vintage drum grooves, and an ear for cinematic nostalgia, he captures the sound of a decade defined by both style and soul. VCR Nightwaves isn't just inspired by the '80s, he lives in that world sonically, building tracks that feel like the soundtrack to a film you’ve half-remembered from a dream.

He’s not rewinding the past; he’s living it forward.
