Meet Presi On: From Colombia’s Club Scene to ABRACADABRA at Pacha Ibiza

How has Colombia’s dance floor energy shaped the way you produce?

My experience in Colombia’s club scene has really expanded my perspective as a producer. Colombian crowds are incredibly energetic, romantic, and passionate. Those emotions are always in my mind when I’m creating music.

The result is music that tries to connect directly with people’s feelings, pull them into a moment, and sometimes even make them fall in love for a few minutes. Hahaha.

If your winning track had to be described as a place, a time of night, and a drink in someone’s hand, what would it be?

I think it would be this scene: a rooftop overlooking a huge city filled with neon lights, right at midnight, with an Espresso Martini in the hand of the love that never happened.

As you can tell, I’m a bit of a romantic. Hahaha.

What are you hoping to bring to the booth at Pacha, and what does playing a room like that mean to you?

Wow. Playing in Ibiza has always been a dream of mine. Ever since I started my career, I’ve imagined the moment of making my debut on the island. Realizing that my first time in Ibiza will be at such a historic, legendary, and iconic venue like Pacha feels like a major life milestone. It still feels surreal, but now it’s real.

Coming from Colombia, where only a few artists have had opportunities like this, it also carries a sense of representation. I’m incredibly proud to carry my country’s flag with me. Right now, I may be one of the few, but I truly hope there will be many more in the future.

That opening set will be filled with the pure essence of Presi On. All of my emotion, romanticism, nostalgia, and energy will be left on that dance floor.

The Troublemakers Ibiza 2026 is out now via ABRACADABRA Records. Get it on Beatport.
