Strakten is an EDM Producer/DJ from Brazil. He debuted in 2016 with the EP ''Redemption'' which was released independently. In 2017, he released your EP ''Oblivion'' on OFR Records. In the same year, he released 3 singles and one EP with Signal Network.
Your track ''Let's Get Fuck Up!" was in position 33 of the Top 100 charts of dubstep in Hypeddit.
How would you describe your influences and how have they changed over the years?
My main influences are in the Dubstep, with artists like Zomboy, Barely Alive, Excision, Skrillex, Getter and Virtual Riot. Dubstep was always my favorite genre of the EDM scene. I always try to innovate, creating my own characteristics over the years. I'm not changed my taste over time.
What´s new right now?
Recently, I'm producing a new album with Signal Network, called ''The Awakening'' with the collaboration of various artists, like Noise Maker, Insert Nvme, Vhoidy and Kaizonaro, including the participations of Ifk Donkeys, O'Boy Xell, Kai-Ju and Micah Byrnes.
