11/07/2009 @ Climax Beats (Florianopolis, Brasil)Pragmatix is Jorge Uema, a 24 year old artist born in Buenos Aires, Argentina. When he was eleven he started playing guitar, and then in high school he played with friends in several bands until he discovered eletronic music around 2002. Listening with the friends of Megalopsy bands like Hux Flux, Hallucinogen, Eat Static and (old)Infected Mushroom his head and soul opened and making psytrance was just a matter of time. Using music as his spiritual path and creative expression, Pragmatix quickly became one of the most promising artists in Argentina after the release of his demo "Inevitablemente Mistico", filled with very creative, original and psychedelic tracks, including collaborations with several local artists and a little glimpse of his dub side, which he also explores in his performances as a chill out dj.
In September, 2005, he released several tracks for the argentinian compilation Amalgama from Dark Prisma Records and Transition Records.
and in 2006 he released another few tracks for Geomagnetic Recs, Dark Prisma Recs, Headroom Productions, and started the side project with his friend alejo called Heterogenesis. In 2007 he released the debut album of Heterogenesis called "Revoluciones Maquinicas" with Dark Prisma Recs and some tracks one compilations like Kadgila Records
His style combines mysterious and dark atmospheres with colorful and playful psychedelic melodies, playing with different textures and a lot of grooves, making tracks perfect for the dancefloor and listening at home. He has also collaborated with a lot of local artists, giving a lot of diversity to his productions.
Currently he has been playing in several outdoors and indoors parties in Buenos Aires supporting artists like KoxBox. Also played in Brazil partie's like Universo Paralello Festival, Trancendence, Festival Fora do Tempo, Respect, Flip Out, Porto Das Aguas Festival with artists like Sentient, Zen Mechanichs, Tetrameth, Flip Flop, Perfect Stranger, Rinkadink, Headroom...
