The Ultimate Music Experience may start on March 13th, but the fun starts a day early as we head to Clayton’s Beach Resort for the official pre-party. One of the artists performing at the pre-party is one of the most sought after young producer/DJs in the business, Deorro.
Known to his postmaster as Erick Orrosquiesta, California-based Deorro acquired a taste for guitar and drums when he was 14. Initially performing under the moniker of Ton!c, the budding talent started DJing at local gigs and house events. Though he could express his love for music through DJing, that love would turn into a career when he began producing his own music.
Using Soundcloud as his main platform, “Ton!c” began to acquire a rather substantial following. Tracks like “Fire” and “Voodoo” became international hits in the blogosphere and helped to secure some bookings Down U4nder. After selling out two events in Australia, a benchmark in his career was set and soon after, Ton!c became Deorro, “Well, to me the name change is sort of like a fresh start, I do like many releases that I have under Ton!c, but I think its time to take it to the next level – new name, new road. And so far so good.”
With a seemingly endless amount of original productions, Deorro’s dedication has helped transform his outlook of life, “I never imagined it would be like this, traveling all days around the world. The thing that makes me very happy is that I can help my sons and my family. In my childhood, things were not very good but now that I have reach this success I think it’s time to give back to my parents and my people what they gave me. I’ll never stop working!”
“Never stop working” is an understatement. In the past month alone, Deorro released “Goodbye” with Zoofunktion and Adrian Delgado, a remix of Axwell and Sick Individuals in “I AM,” and a collaboration with Tommie Sunshine called “Super Hot Fiyah.” Dubbing his unique style of electro house “Panda Funk,” his label, also sporting the PandaFunk name, aims to showcase his signature sounds and help other upcoming artists hone their own sound.
Currently celebrating the release of his latest single “Unspoiled Perfection” with Adrian Delgado and Madeleine Jayne, you can hear Deorro and his unspoiled perfection when he takes the stage at Clayton’s Beach Resort in South Padre Island, Texas for the official Ultimate Music Experience pre-party on March 12th. Tickets are available online, grab yours today to be a part of the #PandaFam.
