For Joachim Pastor, music serves a timeless purpose: it is not driven by trends, fashions, or weekly releases. Its true meaning and significance unfold over time. A key figure in the Hungry Music collective alongside Worakls and N’TO, Joachim has always cultivated a distinctive, hypnotic sound—elegant and easily recognizable—within the realm of melodic techno. His music reflects a rare precision and attention to detail, hallmarks of his perfectionist nature.
Joachim's musical journey began at the conservatory, where he studied for over a decade. During his teenage years, while seeking to join a band as a guitarist, he also delved into music production, downloading software and exploring sound experiments on his own, like a dedicated researcher.
Inspired by Daft Punk, Sonata Arctica, and Jean-Michel Jarre, he became fascinated by the textures of sound and the potential of the machines shaping his music. Over time, these experiments blossomed into a deeply personal form of expression, with Joachim emerging as a recognized electronic music producer. His style is marked by orchestral harmony and classical arrangements, alongside precise, direct melodies.
Today, Joachim Pastor’s music reaches over 650,000 unique listeners every month on Spotify, and he has become a sought-after live performer at major festivals and clubs such as Dour, Tomorrowland, Paléo, and Solidays. His recent signing with electronic music giant Armada Music marks a new chapter in his career. His forthcoming album promises to feature more pop-oriented tracks with a greater emphasis on vocals—an aspiration he has long held.There is little doubt that his debut album will withstand the test of time
