About Me

Sgoliat, aka Sergio D. Villafañez, is a remixer from Santa Fe, Argentina. An electronicengineering student, he was close to finishing school when he was obliged to take a few yearsoff. It was then that he began to pursue his interest in music and remixing songs, somethingthat had fascinated him since he was a teenager.
The style of his first remixes was close to an 80's house sound; however, they didn't keepthe melodic structure of the original versions.
Since 2003, he has been remixing andcollaborating with KooLTURE, influenced by early-80's sounds and groups such as Pet ShopBoys.
In the Internet community, his first unofficial remixes were very well received, to the pointthat radio stations in Mexico expressed interest in promoting them. That, plus his friends'repeated suggestions, encouraged him to go public, while at the same time returning to schoolto finish his degree.
Now he is making a name for himself as a producer and remixer and promoting himself as anindependent artist. He's experimenting with several electronic styles and exploring newgenres, while keeping his interest in house music in all its variations. In addition, he hasenriched his technical knowledge and has done the mastering of a number of tracks andcomplete albums.
