High voltage sound from Colombia with CONTRST

An anonymity that invites you to enter a dimension of high voltage, I’m talking about this Dj that comes loaded with a lot of electronic energy to share with us.

When did you know this way of creating sounds?

As an artist, since 2017 I started to dabble in the world of electronic music in an empirical way. However, it is relevant to mention that as a raver the underground party was leading me to want to know more about those broken, dark and liberating energy sounds.

How do you define your style, genre or performance?

My performance was built little by little and mainly as a raver, frequenting warehouses where I know the industrial techno full of blunt sounds and dark atmospheres. I’m not looking to show something specific with my appearance, I’m just looking for a way to feel authentic and happy with myself.

What tools do you use in your creative process?

I work with Traktor and rekordbox. When it comes to music production, I work with Ableton.

Any project you would like to share with us?

I’m currently working on a new set loaded with dark and forceful sounds. Soon you will be able to listen to it on my Soundcloud and Mixcloud platforms, where you can also find the different sets I have recorded.

Have you participated in parties, events?

I have had the opportunity to be part of events through calls, one of them, which I remember with great pleasure, was in which I could play with time code vinyl with Traktor program. It was a great challenge and quite enriching in my process as an artist.

Tell us a little bit about the form of anonymity you possess?

I like to keep a coherent profile with the sounds I usually mix. You could say it’s a catharsis to be able to give light to the darker side of my being.

How do you see the electronic music scene in your environment?

Currently industrial techno has had a great impact in a positive way in the underground electronic scene of Bogota and I would dare to say that this is due to the compatibility that there is with the musical genre and the city for the dark and raw essence that both share.

Any genre you would like to try that you haven’t done before?

Drum and Bass calls my attention, especially Neurofunk.

Thank you very much to CONTRST for allowing us to do this interview today, soon we will be with this great artist in a long distance collaboration and we will have it on.

I invite you to follow him on his social networks:
