Eddie Amador

It begins in Los Angeles in 1998.  Eddie Amador pens the now-famous lyrics, Not everyone understands house music, It’s spiritual thing, a body thing, a soul thing, sets them to a hypnotic, pulsating beat, and the seminal dance club anthem House Music is born. 

House Music went on to become a global hit and secured Eddie an album deal with Deep Dish’s Yoshitoshi label.  It was his next track, Rise, which proved that Eddie Amador was no one-hit wonder. Catapulting into the Top 20 of the UK national chart, Rise propelled Eddie to the status of a world-class DJ, and he was now performing at such super clubs as Ministry of Sound, The Queen, Centro-fly, Crobar, Stereo, as well as Pacha and Space in Ibiza.

Eddie’s international success allowed him the freedom and opportunity to set up a second studio in Europe in 2003.  Moving to Amsterdam with the desire to progress his sound, Eddie, who has a degree in mechanical engineering, continued pushing the envelope musically and technologically.  Not long after switching continents, Eddie collaborated with fellow American producer Ian Carey under the moniker Saturated Soul.  The duo had a string of productions and remixes including “Got To Release” on Defected Records & “Say What You Want” on Nero Records.  Meanwhile, Eddie was still turning out prime cuts for Yoshitoshi including “Shake It” in 2005 and  “6 AM” in 2006.
 
While living abroad and inspired by the tougher tribal/electro sound coming out of Paris, Eddie created an outlet for more adventurous and underground forward thinking music: Mochicoprimo! Records. Having acquired visionary talent from Europe & the United States, Mochicoprimo! was positioned for dance floor devastation.  Now 2007, Mochicoprimo is on it’s 16th release and sees creative acceptance by the masses as it now appears on the US Billboard Dance Chart with Amador & Carrillo’s “Spotlight.”

Eddie is now living back in Los Angeles and is working on a string of collaborations
and remixes including Warner Bros, Nervous NYC,  and Fine Tune.  Eddie’s also
maintaining a hectic dj schedule, holding down Mochicoprimo, and presenting a weekly 2 hour radio show called MIXIMIZED. Miximized can be heard every Friday night at 10pm on Arizona’s KNRJ 92.7/101.1 fm as well as 88.1 FM Beat in Argentina.
