Vitoria
Born in Vitoria, Spain, Kike Pravda’s interest for music comes since he was a child. His parents worked in a music store, so he always had near as all kind of instruments as analog machines.
Kike gets its first residence as dj, particularly in the old Club Pravda of his hometown. His good work behind the mixer attracted people from other cities, thanks to his exquisite selection of music, including music imported from USA, England or Germany, converting club Pravda in a reference at the time. Kike recognizes the influence from artists such as Basic Channel, Robert Hood, Joan Atkins, The Advent or Plastikman, and labels like Sinewave, Downwards, Axis, Counter Balance, Dynamic Tension or Tresor.
Thereafter, began a growing career that has led him to perform at venues and festivals as important as :
Fabrik | ESP
Space | ESP
Razzmatazz | ESP
Stardust | ESP
Santander Summer Festival |ESP
Treats Open Air |NED
Tresor Berlin |GER
Fraiche |NED
Underground |IRL
Vertice | PT
...
This has led him to share stage with world-class artists like Oscar Mulero, Ben Sims, Reeko, Exium, Jeff Mills, Dave Clarke, Regis, James Ruskin, Luke Slater, Takaaki Itoh or Surgeon, among many others.Given his passion for music, the next step in his career was clear. Kike soon started into production.
From then until 2007, many collaborations on labels like Labrynth, M_Rec, Injected Poison, Digital Reflection or especially Psychoskunk, with whom he worked closely on many references on vinyl and digital format.
But it was not until 2009 when he saw one of his dreams fulfilled as a producer, published in the Warm Up Recordings label, which released “Fear is the Enemy”, which accompanied a work of Oscar Mulero remix.
However, 2012 is the year when Kike Pravda gives the final step. First, with a new release on Warm Up, “Queen of the damned” composed of two tracks and, again, a remix by Oscar Mulero. And then, with the creation of his own label, Senoid Recordings, for whose first reference was supported with a remix by Ben Sims and which already has played by hand of reel known artists like Chris Liebing, DVS1, Truncate, Exium, Oscar Mulero, or Marcel Flenger.
But both, Senoid Recordings as Kike don’t stop there, and have confirmed their next big collaborations for future releases.
Children of Tomorrow ,Faut Section,Dust Recs, Injected Poison labels are the last works signed by Kike in 2016 being one of the 100 most charted artists in Resident Advisor .
2017 has been no less important for Senoid, sounding by Blawan Senoid 004 in Awakenings, and by artists such as Oscar Mulero, Samuli Kemppi, Shlomo, Shdw & Obscure Shape….
Shifted also played the record including it in the DJMAG.COM podcast, and Pan-Pot included it as one of the best tracks of December in 9 Essentials Beatport's chart.
