Minimal (DJ Koze Mix) {无损}

Born 1973 in Santiago de Chile, Matias Aguayo spent the whole '90s in Cologne (Germany), contributing to the city's electronic music scene as a club kid and a DJ at various clubs, the legendary Liquid Sky among them. Aguayo also organized his own nights and hooked up with local key players Michael Mayer and Dirk Leyers to form the production outfits Zimt and Closer Musik, respectively. Touring from disco to disco to perform his live sets, eventually took him to Buenos Aires where he ended up staying for some time to organize temporary free club spaces like the Juventud Clandestina or the Hoy Club - and he never really left. 

 

Aguayo now lives between Buenos Aires and Paris, where he keeps himself busy DJing, producing and playing concerts, solo as well as with Marcus Rossknecht as Broke!. What really sets him apart from his peers though (besides his exceptional feel for percussive, raw yet upbeat body music, that is), is bumbumbox: a series of free, intimate open air raves that he sets up in the streets of Buenos Aires, Rio de Janeiro, Asuncion, Sao Paulo, Medellin, Santiago de Chile, and many other South American metropolises. At bumbumbox, Matias lives his own post-minimal dance music utopia: a place where everybody is welcome, and you'll find him chanting and playing various instruments with his friends to the futuristic house music tracks of his Comeme clique, and mixing them up with everything from dark disco gems to cumbia-fueled techno scorchers...
