Fanzine Podcast 050 - Esteban Adame

What happens when Techno, Jazz, House, Soul, and Noise collide?
A sound that Los Angeles based Dj/ Producer Esteban Adame has been forging for 20 + years. Esteban has released on such respected labels such as Planet E, EPM, Rogue Society Underground Quality, and his own ICAN Productions. His affiliation with Detroit's Underground Resistance has played a key role in shaping his sound as he continues to find the perfect balance between House, Techno and beyond.

In 2004, Esteban was invited by Mad Mike of Underground Resistance to participate (as a Keyboardist), in his then new project, Galaxy 2 Galaxy and Los Hermanos. After a brief apprenticeship with Banks, Esteban returned to production again. Through this venture with UR Esteban began working with hometown colleague and G2G band mate Santiago Salazar. And it was through this that ICAN Productions was born.
ICAN, which is short for MexICAN, is a creative outlet for Santiago and Esteban. ICAN’s first release, oddly enough was not through UR but through Planet E. Since then ICAN has had 2 releases on Planet E and 6 on ICAN Productions.
Recently Esteban has collaborated with long time colleague D.j. Dex, a.k.a Nomadico, from UR in a project simply called EL Coyote. This project debuted its first single on ICAN entitled Ezfuerzo and has a full length E.P. soon to be released on ICAN.
Esteban continues to DJ, produce, play keyboards and any combination of the above. He has also remixed for various artists and has several remixes to his credit. He has appeared as a guest performer/DJ all over the globe in such venues as, The Edge in Sao Paulo, Fabric in London, The Cabaret Savage in Paris, The Loft in Barcelona, and Berghain in Berlin to name a few.
The future is looking bright with many more projects on the horizon for Esteban. Be on the look out for more music bearing the name Esteban Adame, ICAN, or El Coyote in the near future.
