Biografie
Hypnoise is Juan Fontoira's Madrid-based psychedelic trance project, shaped around hypnotic grooves, layered atmospheres and extended dancefloor development. Launched as a duo in 2010, it became his solo vehicle, with the albums Dimensional Shifting on Antu Records and Dance Among the Spirits on Sacred Technology marking its development. His performances have included Boom, Shankra, Freqs of Nature and Origin Festival. Fontoira also co-founded Maharetta Records, creating a platform for the wider psychedelic community, and works with Andrew Olavarrieta, better known as Amplify, in Delysid. Their longstanding partnership extends into running the label together. Outside Hypnoise, his projects Starseed and Chacruna explore other strands of psychedelic music, while Sorry 4 Tomorrow turns towards darker, techno-driven psytech. The shared releases Taarab and Time and Space Travellers sit alongside solo work such as Celestial Bodies, reflecting the importance of both collaboration and individual production to his practice.
