History

While Servente and Faint were young, they gained interests in the EDM genre. The two were mainly influenced by artists such as Paul van Dyk, The Prodigy, BT, and more. As both of them have strong skills in instruments such as the piano, drums and guitar, they began producing at early ages. [2] By the time they formed the group, they both had enough skills to start producing electronic dance music.

In these recent years, Heatbeat managed to gain support from other producers and DJs such as Armin Van Buuren, Paul Van Dyk, Tiësto, Markus Schulz, and many more. Now, they have risen to the ranks of playing side by side with artists such as Above & Beyond, John O'Callaghan, Cosmic Gate, and Ferry Corsten.[ citation needed ] Their songs and mixes have been and are still being aired on worldwide electronic music broadcasts stations. [3]

The Argentine trance duo are still rising as they have played at big events and popular places around the world, such as Armin Van Buuren's A State of Trance show in Moscow, Miami, Ibiza, Los Angeles, and in the biggest clubs of Buenos Aires. [4] In 2012, the two completed their first worldwide tour, started their own radio show, and also had two tracks in Beatport's top trance song chart. [5] The pair received support from the biggest names and labels in EDM, and they have also achieved a rank of 81 in DJ Mag's top 100 2012. [6]

In 2017 Heatbeat created their own label, by Armada Music, Aerys Records. The idea of this project is to give the opportunity to different artists or producers that are in Argentina or Latin America. Some of these producers are Luciano Martinez, Architect, Apaches and Danilo Ercole. [7]

Since 2018, only Matias was left to lead Heatbeat.
