Techno Para Dos^MX

Techno para dos is the alias of Raúl Villamil, a Mexico City-based producer, sound artist, and composer whose work straddles the emotional charge of ambient music and the physicality of experimental club sounds. His compositions unfold like sonic memoirs—intimate, raw, and often haunted by memory and political undertones. From early childhood, Villamil was drawn to sound as a medium of preservation and storytelling, recording his home environment on cassette tapes from the age of four. Raised on protest music and enamored with distortion and noise, he found his way to digital production after a hand injury interrupted his teenage guitar practice—marking the beginning of a relationship with technology defined by DIY ethos and emotional necessity.

Villamil’s live performances reflect his hybrid sound, and he has brought his work to stages across Latin America and Europe, including MUTEK México, Festival Ceremonia, Day Zero, Off Sonar México, and venues such as Slakthuset in Stockholm, Le Consulat in Paris, and Miscelánea in Barcelona. He has also composed original music for contemporary dance and multidisciplinary installations, expanding his sonic language into the fields of choreography and visual art. A co-founder of the experimental label VAA and current sound art instructor at ARCO, Villamil champions a form of creation rooted in resourcefulness and urgency. His approach reflects the complexities of mestizo identity, the politics of listening, and a deep-seated belief that music, even in its most abstract forms, is a tool for survival.
