Ricardo Villalobos & Raresh | Minimal Techno

Romanian Techno/House/Minimal DJ
In 2007 co-founded electronic music label [a:rpia:r] with his friends Rhadoo and Petre Inspirescu.
Ricardo Villalobos (born 6 August 1970) is a Chilean-born German electronic music producer and DJ. He is well known for his work in the minimal techno and microhouse genres, and is one of the most significant figures in today's minimal techno scene.
Villalobos was born in Chile on 6 August 1970. In 1973 he moved to Germany with his family to escape the dictatorship of Augusto Pinochet, who had seized power that year.
When Villalobos was around 10 or 11 he started to play conga and bongos. He began making electronic music in the late 80s. From a very young age he has been a big fan of Depeche Mode, following their tours around Europe to listen to them.
Villalobos began to play his music at parties while he was studying at university, but this was only for his own enjoyment. He started a label, Placid Flavour, in 1993 but this was unsuccessful. His first record was released on the German Playhouse label in 1994 and he began DJing as a professional in 1998.
In 2006 Villalobos, along with Richie Hawtin and Luciano, played to around 300,000 people at the Berlin Loveparade.
At the end of 2007, 2008 and 2010, he came first in Resident Advisor's Top 100 DJs of the year.
Villalobos has released several records on various notable labels, such as Perlon, Playhouse and [a:rpia:r].
This culture was born from small after-parties and club schedules are often divided into three sections: “warm up,” “main” and “after-hours.”
Rhadoo, Inspirescu, Raresh collectively known as RPR Soundsystem. Also The Mission parties helped too and have long been acknowledged as a breeding ground for fine artists and producers, through names like DJ Vasile and Rosario Internullo.
The first support came from Ricardo Villalobos, the techno artist, in the 2000’s, most precisely 2007. So, this musical style had taken shape within the community with Petre Inspirescu and Rhadoo via Ibiza bringing new music into the country.
Well, “The Romanian sound” or “rominimal” is a term that’s being thrown around a lot these days, a style of music that has gained much recognition in recent years, is actually Romania’s answer to underground minimal techno where its local DJ’s have set a new precedent for the type of sounds that they have created. This epic sound not only has it defined its own amazing sub-genre, it has also established itself globally.
One way to describe it would be minimal techno that has been handled with some very soft, velvety hands. It is simple, yet complicated in its simplicity. This sound opens new channels of consciousness for those who listen. The music is subtle and ethereal, laced with fragile effects over raw sound-drums and minimalist baseline. This sound Is like channeling your inner self and let us tell you why.
The crowd play a huge role in this music. You play music for the people, but even the crowd in Romania are different. They don’t speak or twist or swirl around, what they actually do is lose themselves in the music and within themselves, as if wired directly into the beat of their hearts.

[@dersandy]

no offence rather my 2 cents: this is NOT Ricardo Villalobos, whom i consider a grandmaster of effect chainz!.. the actual author of this mix sure enjoys his Mixer FX but not so much his selection: which ultimately kinda ruin it for me.. , to whom it may concern ..

[@mella621]

jo bro , of course i could be wrong but it really feels like ricardo villalobos and raresh playing together and raresh havin' the upper hand in this whole set . like he's takin' the lead or something being in command and ricardo is his wingman . either way mad squables & it's all about the music bebe ! peace - peace .
