George Acosta

Miami-based DJ/producer George Acosta began spinning records while in his teens, emerging as a staple of the underground rave circuit thanks to his appearances at clubs including the Omen, Le Boom, Mach 1, XS Frankfurt, the Shadow Lounge and the Love Parade. The founder of his own Waxhead Records label, Acosta remixed everyone from the B-52's to Ultra Nate in addition to issuing his own records, which include 1997's Miami Beach Bash, Vol. 2 and 2000's Awake. The double series Release: AM Edition and Release: PM Edition followed in early 2001. He and trance guru ATB collaborated on Trance Nation America, Vol. 2 later that summer.
