Bucharest
Latam first played music at a party in 2004 in circumstances rather unexpected, going with the flow in a synchronistic situation. He didn't know how to mix and had no prior particular plan to become a DJ, nevertheless he was very passionate about electronic music. Following this, after a few years of practice and learning, encouraged by things going constantly up, he decided to give up any other business and commit to music and everything related. Started to experiment and gradually explore other sub-genres of electronica too, playing in parallel for some years psy, trance, techno, electro, house, chill-out, in various forms.
Now his focus is on the groovy hypnotic side of psychedelic trance, with a versatile approach that can vary depending on the party profile, audience, location, line-up or hour, between a harder and a lighter sound. BPM is more often than not around 138-148, sometimes can go slower. From time to time he does the warm-up for a big artist or special guest, being good at building bridges between different styles and tempos which is something he really enjoys doing. Every now and then you can hear him also mixing downtempo in an eclectic chill fashion. In addition, he has an alter-ego called Fractaliceanu for faster darker psytrance, and another avatar, Blooni, with whom he ventures into deep techno territories.
Besides DJing, Latam is involved in organizing and promoting events through Thrancians organization that he manages, plus Unda and Spacesheep associations, being a co-organizer of Waha and Rebirth festivals which featured legendary names like Juno Reactor, Astral Projection, Psykovsky, Kindzadza, Sensient, Son Kite, Atmos, Ticon, X-Dream, Etnica & Pleiadians, Cosmosis, Banco De Gaia, Dickster and many more international artists. He's also a partner in a few other projects and collaborated with a lot of different crews.
He performed over the years at numerous events, from big festivals to small underground gatherings or private parties, in various locations and venues in countries like Germany, France, England, Portugal, Austria, Netherlands, Hungary, Italy, Panama, Denmark, Serbia, Croatia, Czech Republic, Norway, Malta, Ukraine, Macedonia, Bulgaria, Montenegro, Republic of Moldova, Crimea, Romania.
