Mario Ochoa

Real Name:
Mario Ochoa Ortiz
Profile:
Born in Medellin, Colombia in 1982. First guitar lesson at the age of 9. He also took part in some choirs and even in a school band where he improved his voice skills a little bit more. At the age of 12 Mario's influences were Spanish Rock and Heavy Metal. At 14 he started flirting with Hip-Hop being part of some local bands.

In 1998 electronic music started strongly in Colombia and Mario Ochoa discovered what would be his real future. Influenced by the storm of electronic sounds Mario started producing his first tracks applying the knowledge he got whit his early guitar lessons. Just one year later Mario Ochoa met Jessus one of the key figures related whit the launch of Mario's musical career. Mário started spreading tracks among friends and they started supporting him playing the tracks at the big parties in Medellin. He definitely started growing as both DJ and Producer.

In the year 2000 Mario Ochoa and Jessus made "Symphony" a track that reached nunber one in in the best Dance station in Medellin "La Super Estacion 92.9 Medellin".
In 2001 Mario kept on improving his production skills focusin on more people friendly tracks and also more complex productions being strongly influenced by both tribal sounds and Disko sounds of the 80's.

In the beggining of 2002 Mario teamed with Jessus and Dj Fist all three from Medellin to develope the most important project in electronic music in Colombia until the date, the creation of a compilation CD called "Electro Movie Shop". A Cd based in a film called "La Vurra" that contained different genres in electronic music such as progressive hpuse, latin and Tribal house, electro and trance. This compilation finally came out in 2003 and influenced tracks from eight talents and Mario Ochoa included two of his tracks, "Da Bomb" and "sentimiento Latino". This last track was a real success both locally and in the rest of the country being one of the most twenty listened songs in colombia.
