Shantiago is the electronic music project of Santiago Nieto, a sound believer who expresses feelings through Dj sets and music creation, all while being inspired by the vibration of the universe.
As a Dj artist, he started to deliver dance floor patterns as techno, trance and EBM during the mid-90s in clubs around Spain, where he was born. At the same time, following his education in western classical music and guided by an elastic mindset, he explores the endless beauty of electronic sounds.
During all these years, he has been performing in different clubs and festivals, offering an ample range of styles. From coordinating the electro/disco nights ’Unlabelled Emotions’ and ‘Space Invaders’ at Die Schneiderei in Zurich (Switzerland) to bringing versatile Dj sets to events like Shankra Festival (Switzerland), Nataraja Gathering (France), S.U.N. Festival (Hungary), Transahara (Morocco), The Great Gathering (Thailand), Aura Open Air Festival (Spain), or Tribal Gathering (Panama).
He has recently released tracks and selection sets for Synchronos Recordings, Yun Recordz and Mindspring Music, and he is a member of the Psybient.org project, with the mission to spread chill-out music worldwide.
Santiago is also a sound therapy practitioner and coordinates his platform, Damaru Sound Journeys, fusing diverse vibrational healing practices and facilitating Ecstatic Dance events.
