Barem / Ernesto Ferreyra / Rudolf Birdsmakingmachine / Nando

At age 13, Argentina born Ernesto Ferreyra precociously landed a job as a radio DJ in his hometown of Cordoba. At 14 he was spinning at under-18 discos. By 16, he was a fully-fledged club DJ. Meanwhile, he made a pass at conventional career planning but soon found out his time at university mostly revolved around weekends in clubs. "I saw my path was marked," he says. "It was music."

Determined to see the world, Ernesto moved to the maelstrom of Mexico City, where he lived for three years, performing all around the country and taking the first steps into his production career. Next, he relocated to Montreal, drawn by the vibrant creative culture of Canada's electronic music hotbed. There, his studio skills moved into high gear, driven by his friendships with the MUTEK artists and in particular with Guillaume Coutu Dumont, whom he records and performs with under the Chic Miniature moniker.

Ernesto's crisp, seductive cuts also appear on labels such as MUTEK, Crosstown Rebels, Musique Risquée, Cynosure and Memoria; remixes for Manuel Araneda, Acirne, Adam Marshall and Luca Aniston have all been released to widespread praise.


Born and raised in New York City, Fernando Arcieri always embraced his diverse background with pride. As the son of a prominent violin maker and the younger brother of a punk rock guitarist turned DJ and producer, his culturally rich upbringing was filled with musical influences.

While playing the Piano and Saxophone throughout his younger years, Nando's tastes grew more and more diverse as he got older. While New York hip hop acts like A Tribe Called Quest, Nas, Gang Starr, and Wu-Tang Clan claimed most of Nando's attention during his teenage years, he kept aware of all else that was taking shape outside of that genre.

Born and raised in New York City, Fernando Arcieri always embraced his diverse background with pride. As the son of a prominent violin maker and the younger brother of a punk rock guitarist turned DJ and producer, his culturally rich upbringing was filled with musical influences.

While playing the Piano and Saxophone throughout his younger years, Nando's tastes grew more and more diverse as he got older. While New York hip hop acts like A Tribe Called Quest, Nas, Gang Starr, and Wu-Tang Clan claimed most of Nando's attention during his teenage years, he kept aware of all else that was taking shape outside of that genre. Aside from the house and techno that his brother had first introduced him to, the artists that really caught his ear in the late 90's were Deep Dish, Sasha & Digweed, and Danny Tenaglia among others. From that point on, Nando's love for electronic music began to flourish.

Having spring boarded his career in Miami, Nando has moved dancefloors everywhere from Ibiza to NYC to the BPM Festival in Mexico. Although his sound is mainly comprised of non-commercial house and techno - whether the occasion calls for deep, pumping, melodic, percussive, funky, or techy grooves - Nando's love for music will never be adequately described in just a few words.
