He has carved out a distinctive niche with his deep microhouse and minimal grooves, creating transformative soundscapes. Known for his kaleidoscopic blend of psychedelic influences and future-fractal sounds, Primărie is a master of balancing the tension between the power of the groove and the relief brought by high-frequency vibrations. His music is crafted not just for the dance floor—it is designed to elevate consciousness, guiding listeners on a spiritual journey of self-exploration and connection.
Primărie’s musical journey began in 2007, driven by a passion for DJing and a vision to create something truly meaningful. He spent his early years experimenting with sound within the vibrant Bucharest scene. In 2010, he founded Tzinah Records, a label that has become a beacon for the Romanian minimal and microhouse movement. Tzinah Records blends underground beats with cosmic sounds, fostering a new generation of artists and serving as a platform for sonic innovation and spiritual elevation.
After spending time in Berlin, where he absorbed the city's deep-rooted electronic music culture, Primărie returned to Romania, where he found his true playground. From infamous after-parties to intimate performances in packed clubs, Primărie has become a key figure in every major Romanian city. His sets go beyond performances; they are immersive experiences, blending deep grooves with uplifting energy to create a shared journey on the underground dance floors. Through his music, he invites people to connect, smile, and transcend the ordinary.
Internationally, Primărie has become a sought-after presence, playing in key European cities where his distinct sound—characterized by deep rhythms, psychedelic layers, and future-fractal tones— captivates audiences worldwide. Central to his ethos is the belief that music is a vehicle for transformation, a way to tune into higher frequencies and facilitate healing, introspection, and exploration of the soul.
As his sound evolved, Primărie developed a signature style that balances subtlety and intensity, weaving together intricate rhythms with otherworldly elements. His approach to DJing and producing transcends the technical—it's about creating a mood, a journey, and an energy that resonates long after the music stops.
At the heart of Primărie’s identity is Tzinah Records, a reflection of his musical philosophy: no artistic pretensions, just pure, unfiltered sound that spans the broad spectrum between minimal and microhouse. Tzinah Records has played a pivotal role in capturing and promoting the Romanian electronic wave, a movement that has garnered international acclaim for its innovation and depth.
In recent years, Primărie has crystallized his artistic vision, fusing deep microhouse with psychedelic influences and fractal sounds that seem to echo from the future. His sets are carefully curated journeys through sound, where each track builds a narrative as spiritual as it is danceable. This evolution has solidified his place in the global minimal scene, making him a sought-after name on the international circuit.
As he continues to push the boundaries of electronic music, Primărie remains dedicated to nurturing the Romanian scene while expanding his influence across continents. The release of his own productions is a testament to his relentless drive to innovate and inspire. With his unique sound and visionary approach, Primărie is not just a DJ; he is a guide on a spiritual journey through sound, leading his audience into new realms of musical exploration.
Whether through his mesmerizing sets or his work with Tzinah Records, Primărie is shaping the future of the Romanian sound, one deep groove at a time.
