To say 2019 has been a landmark year for Cristian Varela would be somewhat of an understatement. Following the critically-acclaimed launch of his 25-year career documentary ‘Music, Passion & Respect’ back in February, the pioneering Spanish icon ¬has had a prolific nine months to say the least, as he continues to justify his position as one of the most influential artists on the techno circuit – both in and out of the studio.
From hard-hitting releases on esteemed imprints including Uto Karem’s Agile Records, Robert Babicz’s Dolma Records and his very own Black Codes Experiments, Cristian has also been a mainstay at some of the biggest festivals and nightclubs the world over, and has masterminded an impressive residency at London’s famous E1 nightclub – regularly welcoming some of the industry’s biggest hitters, including Jeff Mills, Ken Ishii, P.e.a.r.l and Ian Axide to name just a few.
Cristian’s mix for Flow Music comes just one week before his Black Codes Experiments label showcase at Amsterdam Dance Event 2019, where the London-based Madrileño will be joined by Ian Axide, Uto Karem, Steve Mulder and many more, for an unforgettable night of techno at the 50:Hertz Techno Café on October 19.
