CUBENX

Cesar Urbina has been producing under the Cubenx alias since 2005, releasing most of his work on Static Discos and Infiné. The first releases were more electrónica and dancefloor oriented with a strong melodic element. After signing with Infiné, he releases “Canʼt Throw a Stone”, a techno EP that reflects the influence of Berlin, the city where he produced these tracks.
Right after this release, he signed a contract with Infiné for three albums, and this marks a change in his direction. With the goal of producing an album he changed his methods and sounds towards post punk and his early influences. This leads to the recording of “On Your Own Again”, an album with a personal touch, telling stories and sounding more organic than the 12” tracks previously released. This album was presented live as concert with a band on tour with Apparat and in some venues in Mexico. Cubenx still keeps playing as solo act with a more dancefloor oriented sound, featuring a big bass sounding techno with psychedelic flares.
His last two 12” releases feature remixes from Telefon Tel Aviv, T. Williams, Robin Guthrie from Cocteau Twins and the fresh spanish duo of Downliners Sekt, who take the original track into a texturized electronic piece with deep and smooth bass.
