San José, Costa Rica – July 2024 – This upcoming Friday, July 5th, Campo Lago will transform into the epicenter of electronic music to honor the memory and talent of the legendary Costa Rican DJ Oneiro, known offstage as Iván Céspedes. Three years after his tragic passing, Sloth Acid, an independent record and apparel label, in collaboration with Puros Dieces from Costa Rica, proudly presents the posthumous release of “Pherrum” in an unforgettable night of music and celebration.
Doors will open at 8:00 PM to kick off an exciting and energetic party, featuring a stellar lineup of both national and international artists. Among them are MishCatt, Kevin Knapp, Paulo Arruda, and Julie B, who will pay tribute to Oneiro with their performances.
For over two decades, Oneiro was a fundamental figure in the electronic music scene in Costa Rica. As a co-founder of the Electric Animals collective and a constant presence at festivals like Ocaso and Envision, his influence and dedication helped shape the country’s musical landscape. Known for his innovative Progressive House, Afro House, and Indie Dance productions, Oneiro left an indelible mark on DJ culture, even coining his own genre called “Galac-Tech.”
Michael Katz, event organizer and Oneiro’s best friend, expresses: “This event is very special to celebrate and keep alive the memory and talent of my friend. It is an honor to share his music and his legacy with all who admired and loved him.”
Oneiro’s legacy endures not only in his musical creations but also in the hearts of those who had the privilege of knowing him. His spirit continues to resonate in every beat, and this night at Campo Lago will be a testament to a life lived in perfect harmony with the rhythm of the cosmos.
This launch event will feature a spectacular display of lasers and the best sound in the region, thanks to the Funktion-One audio system, with impressive realism and ultimately an immersive listening experience that will captivate all attendees.
