Being only 5 years old he began to develop an aptitude for music and at 9 he started taking piano lessons at a modest private academy, accessing to the Jesus de Monasterio Conservatory in Santander in the specialty of piano the year after. While studying the elementary level of the instrument, an active interest in modern music and rock/metal emerged, and at barely 13 he had formed his first band as a bassist. Years later he completes his musical training in the specialty of piano in the same conservatory. Between 19 and 23 he already had formed more than 10 bands including "No Fate" and "Causa Sui", a successful Hardcore/Metal band where he began his experience as a drummer, and "The Funk Experience", a Funk/Rock group that reached the finals of the contest for young musicians "Juvecant", in the category of other trends in 2006. Being with this band he developed an interest in the sounds of dance music, techno and electronic music that grew over the years, until he began his career as a DJ and dance and electronic music producer in 2007, very interested by Indie-Dance and influences of the new school of European electro. His musical influences were more related to rock and psychedelic music at that moment, listening to bands like Tangerine Dream, Kraftwerk, Silver Apples or early Pink Floyd with Barrett, and the subsequent evolution of electronic and industrial music were the motifs that guided his first steps as a DJ. He based his sessions on that style under the aka "Northdoom", apart from a live set that evolved over time to develop a show with his own songs, based on classic techno, electro influences and rock. In 2010 he joined DlaSanta Undergroove, a Santander collective of DJs and producers, regularly hosting parties in Cantabria. Also in 2010, he was the DJ and producer of "Aquíbeats", a programme broadcasted by Aquí TV that was very well recieved and reviewed among the regional electronic scene. In addition to his run as a disc jockey at several clubs in Santander and numerous rave parties throughout the region, he combined his role as keyboardist and programmer in the band "Loco de Luxe", touring the whole region and several parts of the Spanish geography. Also, during the summer of 2010, he developed a live set with Victor Vituam (Akasoundsite) called "Bloodpsu 63" participating in the FINDE Santander Festival, besides rave parties in Santander, Arevalo (Avila) and other Spanish cities, a totally improvised live set, full of original loops and live performances. Interest and experience with dance music during this time have resulted in a versatile DJ, linked to deep, techno, house and groove. Black music, funk, afrobeat or classic soul are another of his features and both house and club have become a premise on his sessions, performed with a sound linked to rhythm and a constant musicality. Having recently published in Logical Records, among other labels, collaborating with artists from the area of Santander and involved in productions of various styles, it’s now when he is at his busiest moment, and it is not unusual to see his name on posters in the streets of Santander with the collective he is part of and in several clubs and pubs in town.̸Discography: Manuel Arce “I'm in love” Logical Records (2011) Remixes: Estereotypo "At the rythm of giants (Manuel Arce remix)" now on Itunes!
