Sebastian Arias Aka Dj Trackcid
MONTPELLIER/FRANCE
TO THE SOUND OF ACID / ACID RESISTANCE COLOMBIA
He started playing in 2014 in the city of Bogotá with a group of friends who love acid music, no matter how many equipment had to be messed around if Acid Techno was going to play in the final. With those same friends he founded the collective AL SON DEL ACID and began performing at live events and internet broadcasts together with some Djs from the local scene such as Sayith, Sonomaquina, Rave or Phonic, Sonico, Lemon Drop, to name a few. It was through AL SON DEL ACID that he began to promote Acid Techno culture in the Colombian capital, organizing different parties and events until reaching larger levels, inviting international artists such as Chris Liberator (a party organized together with the ACID RESISTANCE collective in 2017 , pioneer in the Colombian Acid Techno scene).
As he kept rehearsing and testing new mixes as a DJ, Trackcid began to be fascinated by the quality and sound style that turntables and records give off when spinning. In 2017, he then decides to learn production and mixing at GROOVE STATION with Dj Zyco the Acid Commander. It is there where Dj trakcid sets aside music in digital format to go to black paste.
Based in France since 2019, he continued his path by resisting the side of Acid music, spending hours in Parisian record stores and always confirming his love for Acid Techno. Since his arrival in Europe, Dj Trackcid begins to attend international parties and raves with French, Spanish, Italian, German, etc. then sharing with more music lovers, which has contributed to nurture his style and his musical technique when it comes to DJing. He was invited to the city of Lyon to be part of a series of events by the Maracuya Lab collective that combine staging with visual performance and engineering. On the other hand, he also approached the side of Spanish underground culture, being invited by the ACID RESISTANCE collective to mix alongside Dj Zyco and great Catalan figures such as Acid Mutant, Tio toni, Koko, Zoge.
