Career

Ciro García began his career as a discjockey (now DJ) in the mid-80s at the Miniteca Geyser, in La Guaira. At a later stage, Geyser would merge with the Miniteca Gayudy, run by Pedro Padrón (Panza), widening its reach within the miniteca circuit.

During those years he took part in numerous local and national events, an active part of the movement in a period marked by competition, technical innovation and the consolidation of a regional identity within the miniteca phenomenon.

The scene and relationships within the circuit

Along the way he shared the stage with ZC, Ofrenda and Ambitus, among other crews. Beyond the competitive dynamic typical of the era, those experiences strengthened bonds of respect and friendship within a generation that understood the miniteca as school, show and community.

His time in the booth was marked by selection on vinyl, the constant preparation of repertoire and the technical rigor demanded by high-level performances in different cities of the country.

«The minitecas were not just parties; they were school, competition, camaraderie and constant evolution. That legacy deserves to be told with respect and memory.»
— Ciro García
