Mauricio Barembuem (a.k.a. Barem) perfectly personifies the new breed of electronic musician who has grown up in the digital age, using intuitive software programs like Reason and Ableton to spontaneously express ideas and emotions. On-line distribution has also made it possible for them to reach out and connect with audiences across the globe, no matter where they are - Buenos Aires for example, where Barem grew up amid the hustle and bustle of a city on the edge. Over the years Mauricio Barembuem has become one of the most prominent figures of minimal techno in South America, mostly due to his releases on
Foundsound Records and
Richie Hawtin's
Minus label, on which he has been consistently releasing since 2006.
