Background:

DJ Edgartronic - aka Edgar Nuñez - spins his own remixes, along with cult 1980s and modern electro-house and offbeat Europop. He has held several residencies, the most noteworthy being Boombox Thursdays at the Air Conditioned Lounge, which ran for over a year. He was nominated Best DJ at the 2008 and 2009 San Diego Music Awards.

As of 2010, Nuñez works as a Web developer by day and a DJ by night. “One of my first DJ gigs was at Scolari’s,” he says. “It had its good times and its bad.” He has also hosted Analogic Nights, a dance music radio show at online radio station X1FM.
