The Guadalajara, Mexico born and bred producer grew up listening to bands like The Cure and The Smiths, and with an early introduction to the house scene, via frequent visits to San Fran and NY. Inspired by Danny Tenaglia, Anthony Pappa and Sasha, Balcazar got into producing and DJing.
His production plays in a range of sub-genres, with elements of tech, minimal, progressive and electro all contributing to the end result: deep, dark, slinky, funky and compelling.
Aside from his solo work, he puts in time as one half of the production duo Balcazar & Sordo, who have been releasing tracks steadily for the past year.
If all that weren’t enough he is, along with fellow Guadalajara producer/DJ Romeo Ugalde aka The Midnight Perverts, a cofounder of Guadalajara based Nëim Records.
As a DJ, Balcazar has shared the stage with Sasha, Hernan Cattaneo, and Lee Burridge, among others. He also spins as part of S.Junkes with Nëim cofounder Romeo Ugalde and Eduardo Pintos.
