Introducing Oscar Mulero - Madrid Techno icon

(Edited)

Glücklicherweise hat mir eine meiner Lieblingskolleginnen aus Kolumbien - die wie ich auf Techno steht - diesen Tipp gegeben. Den Oscar kannte ich in der Tat noch nicht, Sehr geiles Techno sounds, tiefenentspannt - macht Spass zu hören. Ähnlich wie Helden meiner Zeit ala Svan Väth auch er schon 30 Jahre dabei.

Oscar - a hero of Spanish Techno since ages

How could i miss him only til now - seems a similar pioneer like Sven Väth in Germany, Oscar Mulero us known for having always absorbed new trends and kept his finger on the pulse of electronic dance music sind the end of the 1980ies and playing behind decks for some decades already shows he can not be that bad. As usual he is remixing a lot, playing also events (and I never came across him) and owns some record labels as well

Oscar is also known under different aliases such as Trolley Route, Dr Smoke, Infamous Monster, Spherical Coordinates - did you come across this amigo in your career yet @andyjaypowell @edje ?

Funny side fact linked to Sven Väth kind if - Oscar became the founder 1994 of The Omen Club in Madrid - pretty interesting one.

Style?

Her comes from the 80ies sounds and started EDM, Techno and still has that in his DNA - also i would say a bit if ambient and in general mnimal techno sounds. I like it. Just saw this 3 hour session that amazed me (thanks here also to ARTE TV for organizing such great happenings since a while!) - not that commercial / replacable stuff we often see / hear - this is unique and authentic DJing.


Playing in one of the great boiler rooms :-)

Do you mean: Master Mulero?

For sure, I came across him many times! Back in the 90s and the greater part of the first decade of this millennium, when I roamed not only my country of residence but also the rest of the world (including Germany, Spain and many other places and countries) in search of a good night (or day) of music, often this guy made me get up on my feet to get myself in close proximity IRL, mostly on the dance floor and sometimes in the booth.

Not only a pioneer, being part of the establishment of Techno in Europe, but someone who reinvented himself many times. I vividly remember when he started playing offbeat, being one of the first drivers for a period of offbeat techno that lasted perhaps a year or two. The first time when I heard him play such a style was in one of our most known pop culture locations in Amsterdam, called 'Melkweg' (Milkyway in English). A good friend told me that night: "I like to try and play this style as well"... "My answer: "Don't be shy. Do it! I'll be your biggest fan for sure!" .. Needless to say; This friend was damn good in all he did but always a bit shy to make larger changes in his style. A step into the unknown isn't easy for most of us; Like it isn't easy for most artists. But he did, and I loved him for taking that leap. Still feel I helped him doing so. Anyway, a memory as if this all happened last weekend 🙂🎶

EDM? Hum. Back in the 90s Dance Music was used to cover all dance styles, but EDM? I would not mention EDM in combination with Oscar. Bad connotation. But that aside 🙂

I knew you came across him as real expert :-). And i agree with the EDM topic:

EDM was maybe a failure of some sources I saw given his sounds I heard truely could not be seen as EDM - maybe EDM should be EBM (Electronic body music) which relates a bit to the 80ies/early 90ies synthi music.

Nah, those sources classifying Mulero in EDM side of things or run and written by peeps who are simply clueless. I should not conclude this, but honestly 😆
EBM: that is new to me. Will do some research.
