Named after the Mayan expression “to craft music”, PAAX (German Wagener and Nicolas Damonte) hail from two small cities outside Buenos Aires in Argentina. Dabbling in Afro-Latin sounds, deep techno, and live percussion with guest appearances from revered instrumentalists, their music has been released on labels from Scorpios Music to Kindisch, Sol Selectas, Bar25 and Do Not Sit On The Furniture Recordings.
“Musical journeys should give you different sensations, harmonic moments, tensions, intrigue. Abstraction, energy and magic.”
