EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW
The best stories in the musical underground always feature that element of surprise, which often repeats itself. Our story begins when three friends, eager to have their city resonate with the music they loved to DJ, produce, and dance to, come together. All of them were well-known DJs in Madrid’s clubbing scene for many years and had been toying with the idea of starting something together—a new project to shake things up and create a musical scene.
