Existing at the intersection of techno-forward energy as Cardopusher since the 2000s, Venezuelan producer Luis Garban carves out an expansive sonic world, rewiring the DNA of Latin music as Safety Trance. He’s offering an experimental take on reggaeton with an occasional touch of euphoria, collaborating with GRAMMY-winning producer Arca and placing himself at the forefront of a new wave of Latin experimental electronica. 

His new album, sacrificio, is about a transmutation of the sacrifice we make every time we go to the club and offer sadness, grief, and desire to purge it all out via sweat. Drawing from old-school reggaeton, witch house, 90s Memphis rap, and club music, Safety Trance grounds his style that flows through industrial & experimental hard techno, dembow, goth and, of course, gentle trance. Rich with all-star features from the likes of Arca, Sega Bodega or Eartheater, sacrificio serves the role of a portal into the darkness of the club.
