Rafael Castillo

before a small biography... I'm a musician/electronic engineer, I like writing songs, playing guitar, singing, making audio equipment and 3d art.
at 1991 I was playing keyboards on a camera band at my school called "Lautaro", on 1993 I play on another camera band on my school called "Octeto". At 1992 I play guitar with some class mates on a rock band called "Totue"(Contuciòn and other names...) that year we play on a schoolar rock festival and we get the thirth price. At 1996 I thought about studying sound engineer but I disappointed of the universities that gave that career. So I entered to study electronic engineer , you know, if you know how it work you can get the best of your equipment.
at 1996 I build my first stompbox, a preamp . at 1997 was my first contact with internet and schematics , since that I have build some guitar tube amps, a lot of effects , some compressors . At this moment i..m interested on pro audio stuff.
I have a small homestudio where I record my songs , most of the equipment I have constructed them with my own hands .
at 2002 I made a page about guitar amp , www.plexilandia.cl (just spanish) it have a forum where a lot of people build some guitar related stuff. (www.plexilandia.cl/foro)
a long time ago I record some songs and I showed the demo to a cousin who had a recording studio. he said to me that I had a very good voice, so I have tried to practice to improve it.
in 2008 I formed a band called Fireland with Matias Vidal(guitar), Mauricio Espinoza(bass) and Andres Torres(drums) we record an album which still is not released but soon! The band suffered some changes and now are Matias Vidal, Gonzalo Gamio and Douglas Castro.
