Zardonic

Zardonic is the stage name of Federico Agreda, a venezuelan drum and bass DJ, producer and remixer, referenced as the biggest dark Drum & Bass act in Latin America[1].

Biography

Federico Agreda started composing at the age of 16 under his black metal moniker Gorepriest, and two years later he earned the Best Keyboardist award at the Premios Metal Hecho en Venezuela 2002-2003 (Metal Made in Venezuela Awards)[2]. This gained him a significant following in the Venezuelan metal scene. During the next years he evolved through various projects of industrial, ambient and electronic music under different aliases. As Zardonic, he distinguished himself as a remixer for extreme metal bands including The Berzerker (Australia)[3] and Gorgoroth (Norway)[4]. His remix of Nine Inch Nails' The Hand That Feeds became a global sensation on the NIN Remix Web site[5].

Lewis Davidson, owner of American Drum & Bass label Technorganic Recordings, states that Zardonic "...is showing how his varied background, environmental location and unique production styles are quite possibly the secret recipe for Drum & Bass perfection".[6]

History

In 2006 Zardonic's first tracks were released through Death Brigade Records in 12" format. Later this year, he also founded Zardonic Recordings, an independent drum and bass free net label.[7]

In 2007, AK1200, pioneer of the American Drum & Bass scene, selected Zardonic's Moonlight Ceremony for his Weapons of Tomorrow mixed compilation CD[8]. Soon after, his tunes earned the support of international performers such as Dieselboy, Pendulum, John B and Counterstrike[9].

2009 saw the release by Big Riddim Recordings of Zardonic's remix of AK1200's classic Junior's Tune[10], and being commissioned by Dieselboy to do sound design for the Planet of the Drums 10th Anniversary Tour video intro. In a Dieselboy interview for Broken Beats on May 8th, Zardonic was named as one of the five outstanding artists in Drum & Bass at the time[11].

His catalog of remixes continues to grow as well as his collaborations with other artists including Counterstrike (South Africa) and Messinian (Philadelphia, PA, USA). With the latter, he composed the Policia track which was a worldwide dancefloor hit, even played by DJs like Andy C and DJ Hype.[12].

In 2010, Zardonic toured Europe together with Joanna Syze, compiling a total of 12 gigs in Spain, Austria, Romania and Bulgaria[13]. Shortly after, his most representative studio mix Retaliation was released on drum and bass web site Dogsonacid.com paired with an in-depth interview.[14] The first Human Imprint release also happened this year, entitled South Of Human EP.[15]

In 2011, Zardonic got three tracks included in Dieselboy's latest studio mix entitled Unleashed.[16]
