Artist name: Waveconstructed
Born in: 1982 29th of March in Holland
Edgar has always had an interest in music, at the age of seven he wanted to learn drumming but his parents decided to provided him with the means to study the piano instead.
This gave him the opportunity to learn about musical composition. He kept up the classes for about four years and then moved to Spain with his parents. He lost the interest in piano for a while until he started playing with beginners software such as music 2000 (playstation) and magix music maker (pc). This experience motivated him to start creating his own compositions again on the piano. He than bought a pair of second hand Gemini decks and started DJing house music. He kept this up for about a year until he really felt the urge to start creating his own material. Bit by bit Edgar started to learn about sequencing software that didn’t provide pre recorded loops to work with. It all went quite slow until he came in contact with Propellorheads software Reason. This provided him with an all in one solution which enabled him to experiment freely.
While studying Graphic design at a school in Torremolinos he experimented and created music of his favorite genre's Hip Hop and Chill out.
Two years later after working for a year in a real estate magazine as a graphic designer.
Edgar decided he wanted to take the music to another level and turn his hobby into a full time dedication. He quit work and took all his time to focus on getting deeper into producing. He invested some money on getting a better studio setup and got started. This led to the creation his first album called: Don’t think... Feel.
From now on he worked under the artist name Wave Constructed.
Next up he started using Ableton to do a live loop recording based live performance, this is still a work in progress. He has also joined a band called Mulakong and formed a electronic music based duo Called BionicWave.

Raszia
Rafa Matoses aka Raszia nace a finales del verano de 1980 en la ciudad de Valencia, aunque pasa la mayor parte de su infancia en Alicante. Desde muy joven se ve atraído por la música que durante los ochenta sonaba en las discotecas valencianas. Las influencias de sus tíos y el pasar temporadas en la zona de Sueca le hace conocer desde muy pronto a los grupos que más se pinchaban en aquellos años, The Smiths, Simple Minds, Depeche Mode, The Cult, New Order, Front 242, The Cure, The Stone Roses, Then Jerico, Nitzer Ebb, Information Society, The Clash, Ramones... A finales de la década de los noventa aprende a pinchar y comienza a interesarse por la historia de la noche valenciana e investiga toda la evolución de la música en las discotecas de la ciudad. Este hecho le hace también investigar sobre toda la historia de la electrónica, haciéndose fiel seguidor del sonido de Detroit y de todo el techno en general. Sus conocimientos sobre la historia de la noche valenciana y la buena aceptación de un reportaje suyo sobre los 40 años de Barraca para la revista A Little Beat, hacen que sea requerido en 2006 para escribir también la historia de la sala Chocolate para su web oficial.
En 2003, y junto a Sergio Casas, comienzan a emitir un programa en la UPV Radio dedicado a dos estilos que en aquella época no tenían mucha aceptación en la ciudad como eran el trance y el progressive house. El programa dura hasta finales de 2005 y en él realizan numerosas entrevistas y reportajes sobre todo lo relacionado con los estilos tratados. Es tras el programa cuando Raszia comienza a colaborar con la revista de música y nuevas tendencias A Little Beat.
En 2006, Rober, uno de los nuevos responsables del club dominical La Soirée, le ofrece participar en la primera edición de la fiesta [dark&rare], con la que pretendían recuperar durante unas horas el espíritu musical ecléctico de la Valencia de los ochentas. El éxito de la fiesta hace que Raszia entre a formar parte de la plantilla de residentes junto al propio Rober, Miss Yuls y Fabel. Unas semanas después entraría también como residente BadMind. A lo largo de este tiempo han pasado por las cabinas de La Soirée artistas como Tony Verdi, Carlos Palacio, David Verdeguer, DARYL, Active Sense, Coyu, AXS, Putilatex, Wego!, Alberto Sola, Cristian G. Martí, Lezpaziale, Kronik, Óscar Barila, Jose Conca, J. M. Aboga, Óscar Sogorb, Eddu Reig, Moy Santana y un largo etcétera de los mejores djs y artistas de Valencia.
En mayo de 2007, Raszia y BadMind crean UME Kollektiv, con el que poder expresar sus inquietudes musicales underground más ampliamente. Además de ellos dos, el colectivo lo forman el barcelonés Triumph, el argentino Ale Szylder aka AXS! y el joven valenciano Edu Imbernón. Desde su creación, los miembros de UME han participado en numerosas raves entre las que destacarían dos ediciones del Maniatik Music Festival, el multitudinario segundo aniversario de Hypnotica Colectiva, la rave presentación del Foc In Festival 2007 o el Hole in the Valley.
En todo este tiempo Raszia se ha convertido en uno de los djs más respetados de Valencia, siendo requerido para pinchar de forma regular en los mejores clubs de Valencia como Barraca, Le Club, Miniclub, Mogambo, Latex, The Mill Clubs, Spook, Infinity... además de haber pinchado en otras discotecas como Nassau (Sagunto), Liquid Club (Rafelbunyol), Shiroko (Alcàsser), Avantgarde (Manises)... y en raves de la provincia de Alicante; en estas actuaciones ha compartido escenario con artistas como HD Substance, Robert Calvin, These New Puritans, Óscar Barila, Jackson Milicia...

Desde ese momento han actuado por 303 Club! artistas de la talla de Dave Tarrida, HD Substance, Pablo Bolívar, Brwn Shoes, James Venturi, Marcelo Tag, Franco Cazzola, I.B., Dioni Sánchez, Alberto Sola, Jay Mendez, David Verdeguer, Mighty Kat, Liss C...
