Fede Spamer Talks New EP, Production Process, Inspiration & More
Fede Spamer is a Producer and DJ steadily carving his own path within the world of Electronic Music.
Based in Buenos Aires, Argentina, Fede Spamer’s journey reflects both passion and commitment, as he continues navigating the genre with intent and an explorative mindset. With a Classical Music background and a sound that blends melodic depth with club energy, his style draws from Tech House, Melodic Techno, and a wide range of emotional influences, aiming to bring a storytelling approach into Electronic Music, both through his studio productions and his work behind the decks.
As he prepares to release his debut EP, we spoke with Fede about his journey into music, the influence of his environment, and where he hopes to take his sound next.
Hi! How are you doing? Thanks for joining us today!
Hi! I’m doing great, thank you for having me.
Let’s start at the beginning – when did you first discover a passion for music, and what role did music play in your life growing up?
Of course. My passion for music began early — I started taking piano lessons as a child, which gave me a strong foundation in Classical Music. That training shaped the way I understand music – not just melody, but also structure, harmony, and emotional expression. While I don’t directly use Classical Music in my tracks, its influence is deeply embedded in how I craft compositions and create emotional journeys through sound.
If there was one thing I looked forward to after school, it was learning new piano pieces, composing, and experimenting with music production software. This early drive to explore and create has been a constant in my musical journey.
I’ve drawn inspiration from many other styles and artists across different genres, but Classical Music remains the main influence that guides my creative process.
When I discovered Electronic Music and immersed myself in DJ culture, it felt like the perfect space to blend that foundation with fresh sounds and ideas. That’s when my project truly came to life – bringing together the discipline of classical training with the energy and freedom of Electronic Music to create something meaningful and impactful.
Being based in Buenos Aires, how has your environment influenced your musical journey and helped shape your identity as an artist?
My first real approach to the Electronic Music scene came through nightclubs, where Tech House dominates. Naturally, when I first started my project, my sets and tracks were heavily Tech House-oriented – it was what surrounded me, and it felt like the right entry point.
At the same time, going out in Argentina means being immersed in genres like cachengue (a local subgenre of cumbia), reggaeton, and Latin trap. These sounds are everywhere, and it’s impossible not to absorb them.
Even though my style has evolved, those influences have definitely left a mark on my sound. They’ve helped shape a more diverse, rhythmic, and culturally rooted identity in my music.
What first drew you to Electronic Music? Was there a particular track, artist, or moment that inspired your interest in the scene?
I think hearing Eric Prydz’s ‘Opus’ was a turning point in my life. The way he builds emotion throughout the track – how he carries a feeling and lets it slowly evolve – gave me goosebumps. I can honestly say it’s one of the tracks that most inspired my musical project. It made me reaffirm that Electronic Music could go far beyond the dancefloor. It could tell a story, create tension, and move people deeply without a single word. From that moment on, I knew I wanted to explore the more emotional and melodic side of Electronic Music – to build something that not only makes people dance but also makes them feel something.
Of course, ‘Opus’ was just one of many moments that drew me in. There have been countless tracks, artists, and live sets over the years that pulled me deeper into the scene, each one shaping my taste, perspective, and inspiration in a different way.
Even before that, I’ve always been curious about what lies beneath a song. When I listened to pop records, I would often search for the instrumentals and play them without the vocals, just to see if the music alone could move me. If it did, I knew there was something powerful there. That instinct – to feel music beyond the lyrics – has always guided me, and it’s something I still carry into my work today.
How would you personally describe your sound to someone hearing it for the first time?
I’d describe my sound as emotional, melodic Electronic Music with a cinematic edge. It’s rooted in storytelling – I always try to take the listener on a journey, whether it’s through subtle builds, evolving harmonies, or unexpected turns in the arrangement. The foundation often comes from my classical background, especially in how I approach melody and structure, but the sound itself is modern and atmospheric.
There’s a strong focus on feeling – sometimes introspective, sometimes uplifting – but always with intention. I want people to connect with it on an emotional level, not just rhythmically. Whether they’re listening on headphones or in a club, the goal is to create an experience that resonates beyond the moment.
From a creative and career perspective, who are the artists you most admire? Are there any whose approach to music and the scene continues to impact your own journey?
I really admire artists like Eric Prydz, Anyma, James Hype, Monolink, Zedd, CamelPhat, and KREAM. Eric Prydz has been a major influence – his ability to build emotional, melodic tracks that go far beyond the dancefloor completely changed how I think about music. Anyma inspires me not only with his use of visuals, but also with how he keeps pushing the sound of Melodic Techno in new and creative directions.
James Hype brings incredible energy to his sets, and his mixing skills show how important it is to connect with the crowd in the moment. Monolink’s fusion of vocals and electronic elements feels very personal and expressive, something I try to bring into my own work. Zedd’s sense for melody and production detail has always stood out to me. CamelPhat’s deep, atmospheric grooves and KREAM’s polished yet emotional sound also continue to shape the way I produce.
These artists remind me that Electronic Music can be powerful, emotional, and innovative – and that’s exactly what I aim to deliver with my own sound.
Can you talk us through your production process – how do you start creating a track, and what steps do you take to build on your initial ideas?
I’d say my production process starts long before I open any software. I’m constantly listening to music while doing almost anything else. I love discovering new artists, exploring fresh sounds, and hearing what’s evolving on the scene. That steady intake of inspiration fuels my creativity when it’s time to sit down and produce.
When I start working on a track, I usually begin with the basics. I choose a key or scale that resonates with me emotionally in that moment, and I often start by crafting the bassline. It helps set the tone and mood. From there, I’ll build the kick and begin experimenting with melodies and rhythmic patterns – sometimes they just come to me in the moment, other times they’re sparked by something I heard earlier that day, or a certain emotion or memory I’m sitting with. Inspiration can come from anywhere, and I try to stay open to it.
My creative process is very instinctive but also quite self-critical. A single track can take me up to a week because I constantly reflect on whether I still connect with what I’m making. If I lose that connection or don’t feel the track is going anywhere emotionally, I don’t force it. I’ll scrap it and start something new. For me, it’s not just about finishing tracks – it’s about creating something that feels real and honest.
Once the core idea is solid, I move on to layering, transitions, and sound design. I like adding small details and textures to make the track more immersive. And finally, I usually top it off with some vocal elements – something cool and atmospheric that gives it an extra emotional hook without overshadowing the music.
When it comes to DJing, what about performing live do you enjoy most?
What I enjoy most about performing live is the adrenaline – the anticipation of how people are going to react to my track choices. There’s something special about watching the crowd respond in real time, seeing them dance, connect, and completely lose themselves in the moment. That energy is what fills me the most.
For me, DJing follows the same intention as producing: it’s about creating a feeling and guiding people through a journey. I want them to experience Electronic Music’s full emotional and sonic range – the textures, tension, and release. There’s so much creativity and depth within the genre, and sharing that with a crowd, in a way that resonates physically and emotionally, is what makes performing so powerful.
Looking ahead, can you share what creative ambitions you have for the next five years of your journey?
I’m about to release my debut EP, so in many ways, this is just the beginning of my journey. Over the next five years, I want to take my project far beyond just the music. My goal is to create a full sensory experience for the listener, not only through sound, but also through visuals, lights, and the overall atmosphere of my live shows. I see myself getting deeply involved in the creative direction of everything: the stage design, the visuals, the emotional arc of the set. I want each performance to feel immersive and intentional – a 360° experience that stays with people long after the last track ends.
On the musical side, I also hope to collaborate with some of the artists who inspired me to take the leap into this world. Working with them would be both a dream and an opportunity to grow. I know those experiences would challenge me creatively and help shape me into the artist I aspire to become. I’m hopeful and excited about bringing this vision to life.
Finally, where do you see your sound evolving next – are there any new sonic directions or concepts you’re excited to explore?
I’m always looking for what’s new, both as a listener and a creator. I get bored easily when I hear too much of the same, and that drives me to keep evolving. The same applies to my music: if I decide to release something, it’s because I genuinely feel it and enjoy it. That emotional connection is non-negotiable.
Looking ahead, I’m excited to explore new sonic territories while still staying true to the emotional and melodic foundation that defines my sound. I’m curious about blending organic and synthetic elements in new ways – experimenting with textures, rhythms, and even genres that I haven’t touched yet. Maybe bringing in more ambient influences or developing the cinematic aspect further with more atmospheric builds and storytelling structures.
I’m also becoming more interested in how sound and visuals interact – how certain melodies, arrangements, or moments in a track can be paired with lighting or visuals to amplify the emotional impact. So, in a way, the evolution I see isn’t just musical – it’s conceptual too. I want to keep pushing boundaries and finding new ways to make people feel something real.
Speaking with Fede, it is clear that his approach to music is rooted in curiosity, emotion, and a desire to keep evolving. As he stays focused on building something meaningful and connecting with a community that resonates with his work, he continues to shape a promising presence on the scene. So, be sure to keep up with Fede Spamer and his evolving journey by following him across social media for updates on upcoming releases and performances.

UNTOLD is more than a music festival, it is a whole universe built within the heart of Cluj-Napoca, on 235,000 square meters on the Cluj Arena and the Central Park surrounding the stadium. Besides music and magic, UNTOLD is about unity, love, community, friendship, diversity, courage, passion, authenticity, uniqueness, and pure joy. The festival encourages people to believe in their dreams and be their most authentic selves.
Each year, the festival has a creative concept, and for the iconic 10th edition, the mainstage is imagined as a temple of magic, a spectacular visual creation that honors the festival’s journey over the past decade. At the heart of this universe stands The Magician, the narrative voice who has guided each edition of UNTOLD, now returning symbolically as the spirit of continuity. The stage blends fantasy elements with iconic symbols from UNTOLD’s legacy, bringing together key characters from past chapters. This visual and emotional reconnection becomes a celebration of the festival’s core values: imagination, freedom, community, and transformation.
At the centre of the temple lies the X which is more than a marker of the 10th anniversary, it is the imprint of UNTOLD’s identity, a symbol of the bridge between past and future, between story and reality. The X reflects those who make this world possible: the UNTOLD fans who are the best crowd in the world. More details about the iconic edition are available on untold.com.
