Buenos Aires-born electronic artist Ramiro Drisdale started on his musical path around mid-2019.
"At first, I was working in other genres, sharing music with friends and being involved in other projects, such as rock bands," he says. "What really attracted me was the idea that, with just a computer, you could bring your ideas to life. That’s how I got started. The DJ side came later, when I began to feel the need to present and share what I was creating. It started to become serious when, after a year and a half of producing, I was able to sign my first contracts with major labels. That was the moment I realized this was the path I wanted to follow."
Drisdale is reluctant to pigeon-hole his sound. "If I had to describe my sound today, anything I say might become outdated in the future," he says. "As I mentioned, I started in 2019, so I’ve experimented with different genres and nuances over the past few years. Nowadays, I try to make music that comes from the heart, without overthinking or judging it. The results are better this way, because you end up creating tracks that, without realizing it, carry all of the experiences and experiments you’ve gone through."
His latest release is the Glade EP.
"Glade is an EP that I consider very special, as it represents a sound I worked hard to achieve," he says. "Both Glade as well as Jebel and Norte share a fundamental purpose: to make people dance on the dancefloor. At a certain point, I made that my priority, and I believe I was able to achieve it. Being able to release it on All Day I Dream was a dream come true. Lee Burridge has been one of my biggest inspirations since the very beginning."
As for gear: "When it comes to making music, I’m not really someone who’s obsessed with constantly changing or upgrading my production gear (I think I’ve been using the same monitors since I started, haha). I believe it’s very important to get used to working with what you have, especially for those who are just starting out and might think you need a top-level studio to achieve your goals. That’s not the case. I think the key lies beyond that, in consistency and in the love you have for doing it every day."
Looking ahead, Drisdale has plenty planned for 2026. "I have several plans, mainly focused on bringing my music closer to the public, both through live shows and new releases," he says. "Over the past year, I’ve been working on a lot of material, both individually and in collaborations with colleagues I deeply admire. 2026 is shaping up to be a very exciting year."
