AL SON DEL ACID / ACID RESISTANCE COLOMBIA

Trackcid kicked off his musical journey back in 2014 in Bogotá, rolling with a bunch of friends obsessed with the acid sound. No matter how much gear had to be carried around, one thing was clear: Acid Techno had to play. That vibe gave birth to the crew AL SON DEL ACID, pushing underground parties, live sets, and online streams while sharing decks with local heads like Sayith, Sonomaquina, Rave o Phonic, Sónico and Lemon Drop.

With the crew, Trackcid wasn’t just DJing – he was helping build the scene. Things got serious in 2017 when, together with ACID RESISTANCE, they brought the legend Chris Liberator to Bogotá, a milestone for the Acid Techno movement in Colombia.

That same year he dove deeper into production and proper vinyl mixing at Groove Station, mentored by DJ Zyco The Acid Commander. From then on, it was all about the black wax and the raw power of turntables.

By 2019 he had relocated to France, digging into record shops, hitting raves and festivals across Europe, and connecting with Acid communities in France, Spain and Italy. His sound kept growing, shaped by endless nights on the dancefloor.

He’s been invited to play in Lyon with the Maracuya Lab crew – known for blending music with visual performance and engineering – and later back with ACID RESISTANCE in Spain, sharing decks with names like DJ Zyco, Acid Mutant, Tio Toni, Koko and Zoge.

In the Occitanie region of France, Trackcid became part of the local rave circuit, and in 2025 he hit a new milestone playing at the 10th anniversary of Insane Festival, alongside heavyweights like Dr Peacock, Acid Pach, Angerfist, Cyberpunkers, and Amygdala, securing his spot on the European stage.

Always true to his roots, Trackcid keeps pushing the Acid Techno spirit forward – raw, underground, and without compromise.

Ketrab – DJ, Producer, and Label Owner

Ketrab, the artistic moniker of Bartosz Czechowski, is a DJ, music producer, and label owner hailing from Wrocław, Poland. His deep-rooted passion for UK Acid Techno and Hard Techno has shaped his career since its beginnings in 2002. Known among friends as "Siwy," Ketrab initially developed his craft in Wrocław's underground scene, spinning records at clubs such as Wagon, Intro, Samo Życie, and Absurd.

In 2005, Ketrab moved to Bristol, UK, where he quickly immersed himself in the city's vibrant techno scene. He organized free parties and performed at legendary venues like Lakota, The Black Swan, Blue Mountain, and Jack of Diamonds. During this time, Ketrab had the opportunity to perform alongside techno heavyweights such as Dave the Drummer, DDR, and Geezer, solidifying his position in the underground music scene.

After taking a six-year break from performing and organizing events, Ketrab returned to the decks in 2018, joining forces with the Zlotek collective. The collective reignited his passion for organizing and performing until the COVID-19 pandemic put a temporary stop to live events.

Not one to stay idle, in 2020 Ketrab began learning music production, and by early 2022, he launched his own digital record label, Nota Fortis Records. The label is dedicated to hard, acid-driven techno, and Ketrab has already released three EPs under its banner: Raveolution Has to Happen, Inner Rage, and In the Face of Madness. These releases showcase his ability to blend fast, aggressive beats with acid-infused techno elements, establishing his unique sound in the techno world. His work continues to expand, with more unreleased music in the pipeline.

In addition to his releases on Nota Fortis Records, Ketrab has also put out music on respected labels like Refined Format and Breslau Techno, gaining international recognition. His DJ sets, known for their relentless energy and hard-edged acid techno, feature not only tracks from global artists but also his own productions, creating a unique and powerful experience on the dancefloor.

With a growing catalog of releases and a reputation for delivering high-energy performances, Ketrab is steadily carving out his place in the global techno scene. You can find his music on platforms like Beatport, Juno Download, and Bandcamp, where he continues to push the boundaries of hard acid techno.

Hello, all. My name is DJ Shnootz (real name Matt), and my obsession with acid techno and acid trance began in late 1996. Twenty-eight years later, I am still obsessed with acid techno and acid trance.

Of course, I also mix hardcore/gabber, acid core, psybient, Goa/psy, hard trance, UK hard house/NRG, ragga tek, and even some melodic trance every now and then. In fact, in the last few years (since mid 2015 or so, and especially since late 2017), I've gravitated quite significantly toward hardcore/gabber (particularly "early hardcore" with healthy doses of ACID). To be clear, I still mix acid techno, acid trance, and the other styles I mentioned above; but fair to say, gabber has become one of my main pursuits in the last few years, so hardcore heads should expect many more mixes of thunderous gabber going forward.

In any case, I’ve also long been a fan of hardcore punk rock (e.g., Propagandhi, [UK] Subhumans, Dead Kennedys, Bad Religion, etc.), hip-hop (Del the Funkee Homosapien, Jurassic-5, Sage Francis, early Wu, etc.), reggae/dancehall/dub (General Levy, Daddy Freddy, Pato Banton, Steel Pulse, Bob, etc.), classical music (Beethoven, Dvorak, Khachaturian, Rossini, Verdi, etc.), and many other types of "normal" music, as well.

In terms of my work as a DJ, I have always been a vinyl guy (the only exception being my psybient sets, as most psybient is released digital-only), though to be clear, I have absolutely no problem with digital DJs and digital-only tracks; I just stick to what I know, that's all. Anyway, I started playing parties in southern California in late '99, and over the next few years, I played a few dozen events for Something Fresh, Neosapiens, Believe, Molecule, and a handful of other production companies I can't remember. I took a semi-hiatus between maybe 2005 and early 2009 (and I still mixed the occasional set during those years) but then got back into it more earnestly and developed a modest but wonderfully demented online following, particularly overseas. Since early 2015, I've also begun to play a handful of events again, so we'll see what the future holds.

Anyway, enjoy the mixes, and feel free to contact me about tunes, further info, or bookings. Keep it acid!
