And it consists of ALL-ORIGINAL EKIS EKIS TRACKS & RE-MIXES!! Enjoy.... THE STORY: 10 Years of EKIS EKIS: The Journey from Catamarca to the Global Electronic Underground The Argentine electronic music ecosystem is globally renowned, but for decades, it was an industry heavily centralized in the urban hubs of Buenos Aires and Córdoba. Enter EKIS EKIS, a project that has spent the last ten years shattering those geographic boundaries. Hailing from a small town in Catamarca—a region historically off the map for avant-garde electronic music—this project has proven that world-class sound knows no borders. As the brand celebrates its 10th anniversary, it stands as a masterclass in digital democratization, raw talent, and strategic evolution. The Philosophy of Anonymity Every iconic brand has a compelling origin story. For EKIS EKIS, it began in 2016 under a fascinating philosophical premise: total anonymity. Initially operating behind the mathematical symbol of an unknown variable, "[Xx]", the goal was to shield the music from any geographic or personal prejudice. Instead of relying on a localized identity, the creator let the intricate soundscapes, meticulous audio engineering, and curatorial skills speak entirely for themselves. This phase laid the psychological and structural groundwork for what would become a global sonic footprint. A Prolific Sonic Architecture The signature EKIS EKIS sound is an immersive hybrid: it bridges the hypnotic, atmospheric progressions of Progressive House with the darker, resonant, and emotionally charged energy of Melodic Techno. Massive Output: The project boasts over 200 formal releases spread across 40 international record labels, including highly prestigious imprints like Univack and Sound Avenue. Algorithmic Defiance: In an industry that usually forces artists into hyper-specialized niches, EKIS EKIS has accomplished the rare statistical feat of cracking the Beatport Top 100 in seven different subgenres. This wasn't just an album; it was an exercise in strategic musical diplomacy. EKIS EKIS built an active studio network with over 75 artists across 34 countries, spanning all five inhabited continents. By collaborating with local heavyweights in places like Egypt, Australia, and the UK, the brand executed a brilliant cross-pollination strategy—organically infiltrating new, captive audiences globally and turning a solo producer into a central node of the global underground network. Global Support: The music of EKIS EKIS has been championed by foundational titans like Richie Hawtin, Paul Oakenfold, and Nick Warren. The Holy Grail: A definitive crowning achievement was having a track featured on John Digweed's legendary "Transitions" radio show—the ultimate seal of approval for a progressive producer. . . . . . . . . . .
