Three chapters of fate
Each chapter is its own world, painted in the style of Japanese woodblock prints and built for the dancefloor. Release details are coming — subscribers hear them first.

The artist
Music as a spiritual path — and one of South America's defining psytrance voices.
Born in Buenos Aires, Pragmatix traded the guitar for synths in 2001 after discovering Hux Flux, Logic Bomb, Hallucinogen and Infected Mushroom. Mysterious textures, deep groove and a glimpse of his dub side have since carried him across open airs and clubs on five continents.

What you will learn
Kick & Bass
The architecture of a professional kick and how the bassline locks into it — phase command and the technical relationship between both elements. A low end with unwavering power and surgical clarity in every transient and sub-frequency.
Sampling & Audio Editing
Microscopic audio manipulation, from transient shaping to advanced warping in Ableton Live. Sculpt samples and engineer complex psychedelic textures with full authority over your sound design.
Audio & MIDI Effects
Advanced routing, racks and MIDI tools to generate complex melodies and three-dimensional textures — automation and modulation that give constant movement, life and professional depth to every sound.
Composition & Rhythm
The interplay between kick and bass to build solid grooves and immersive atmospheres, and how to structure narrative sequences that manage tension and release on the dance floor.
Mixing & Mastering
Surgical equalization and dynamic control for a clean, powerful sound, and how to fine-tune your low end for a competitive, festival-quality master.
