after he started playing in nightclubs in 1999, jorge took part of countless events both underground and massive. his most accomplished residency was at “el sótano”, one of the historical and premier influential clubs of the argentine underground. he shared the privilege with nicolás purman, franco cinelli and lucas mari. they worked together for three seasons, and developed an exquisite combination of techno and house music, emphasizing on the minimal aspects of the genres and combining it with the spirited electronic sounds of chicago and detroit.
