What is the meaning of your artist/project name?
It's related to cyberspace, specially on the ether and the capability to connect and communicate in the immensity of this invisible/ghostly area that internet is.
- Which is the concept behind your music project, how you categorize your own music?
I think it's a combination of many musical genres, sometimes vaporwave then dark ambient, grime, avant-garde, concrète musique. In general, it's experimental sound design because I create while I improve, no matter what the style it's at the end.
- Do you release music only under your main project? do you have other active or past music projects or monikers?
A year ago, Çois Agver & I joined to Radio Ensayo as Vía de Acceso to talk & share creations from experimental a/v artists around the globe every third Thursday of the month. You're all invited to listen to it & collaborate somehow. We had our show #12 in June & it was audiovisual experience, it was cool. Right there we premiered and presented our duo project named “Desertic Garden” where we explore themes about ecologic activism identified with our ancestral heritage that it's connected to nature. Our first EP was a post-apocalyptic inspiration but we're always open searching new point of views.
- Favorite music genres??
Electrónica desconstruida, vaporwave experimental, música concreta, dark ambient/drone, avant-garde, techno, minimal, tribal prehispánico, new age, witch house, contemporary, abstract, etc.
- In what year did you start making music? which was your first band/project?
Enternet boy born in 2018 but my visual art project came before when I learned to use Photoshop and other design apps, then we create VDA as an account dedicated to glitch/surrealistic art. After that, we found Audacity & other audio softwares and then I started with sound design under EB.
- Which inspiration you have from the place where you live? There's some inspiration from your country in your music?
“Plaza Internacional” it's about my city & my first album it's a tumult to my country. For years ago, I remembered to discover and learn how actual social system constructions works, what's the power of money, invisibility for some specific groups of people and other situations... It was a moment of rebellion and consciousness; I wanted to protest, transform feelings into art. Sounds are dramatic sometimes but there's hope in some pieces too; I inspire myself in ancestral knowledge of people whom were here before me to guide me, to teach me in positive ways.
- Which are your favorite visual/plastic artists who inspire your work?
Çois Agver, DIGITONICA, Enigma Curry, TaRka, Asako Hoshikawa, Draumurmar, Esstro9, Quasiaqua, Chris Meneces, Robin E. Stewart, EustaquioElPlagio, Lend Me Your Underbelly, Samuel L. Jetsen, VDA, Fun.At, Enzo Luciano, Franco Paliof, Dannyhell, Matsumoto Akihiro, Arrehola, Nicolas Morillo, Antonio Ponce, Nikita Tikhonov, Salvador Venti, Nick Williams, Toy-Mesme, Kayvan Niktabiat, Nico Lillo, Zolm, Keith Rankin, Proxima2000taur, Magnhild Kennedy, Jim Davys, Koo Des, Muriel Nisse, Vince Mckelvie, Sander Etehema, Gabriel Gabriel Garble, Sasha Frolova, Nikita Replyanski, Stefano Benediti, Michelle Pan, Armandi Art, Reina Rex, Nick Wivekyolamal, Burnie Elfhonderd, Aunhelden, Theo Tryantafyllidis, André Benson, Irene P. Tello, Michel Poisson, Soso Gutter, Lloyd Newell, Alejandro Jodorowski, Mimi Choi.
- How do you see the current Underground music scene of the music genre that you are involved?
I think we're always expanding more & more, there's always new emerging creators at the vanguard. Somehow, due to internet we're connecting frequently with each one from this community of underground music, it's great to know there's someone with same musical taste out there in the world. Hopefully, we can leave a trace for those who don't know about this movement & then they'll be prepared for the future.
- Favorite popular & also underground composers/music projects?

- Do you make live performances? If you do, can you talk us about the experience?
Yes, I've been playing in Festival de Pajama 2 & 3, it's another feeling to be in front of people even when you don't see them. There's always love & good interaction in the chat section... And the set 
I'm thinking to become a studio director.

- Which is your favorite song/composition and album created by yourself?
This is a hard one 
maybe my favourite albums are Plaza Internacional, THÉLÈME and dodecagrama in that order, but to choose just one track it's harder!
- Tell us about the concept & the creation process of one of your latest EP / ALBUM
In my LP5 "Plaza Internacional" : https://enternetboy.bandcamp.com/album/plaza-internacional
I interpret the story of a Yucatecan citizen; most of the topics have titles based on Mayan culture and history. I realized that I had not made an album with the roots of my hometown, there are references to past albums, following the themes of magic and self discovery because the songs do not contain samples, so it was something completely original and spontaneous using FL Studio. I learned about mastering and intelectual property in this isolation time.
- Tell us about the underground music scene in your city, and which are your favorite artists from your country?
We have Çois Agver, CNDSD, Isaac Soto, Seagit Arc, Om Beach, Lost Insurgentes, Borametz, Emiliano Dietzgen, Hërmës, Concepción Huerta, Gazrapse, Virtual Trash, Chichilcitlalli, Erick Ruiz Arrellano, Daniela Solis and collectives as Antimateria Sonora, Virtual Soundsystem Records, VAA, Chakanais, Oris.
- As active musician, What inspire you to create more and more content? From where you find the inspiration for be a music creator?
I think in nature... the Earth in general; human history, technology advances, buildings, dreams, fantasy and magic worlds, on meditation, in the galaxy...
- Any anecdote that you want to share with us in the creation of some track?
I think the curiosity of all my works, it's the growth and relationship of my life experiences with these sounds that produce feelings. There's a meaning and specific message in all compositions but they're encrypted and sometimes they're played during a special moment or date or specific learning. Somehow like Magick.
- Any news for this second half of 2021 or for 2022 in your music project or future collaborations?
Yes, I'm planning a new compilation album singing some of my previous works, like a re-interpretation but freshly, most of them its going to be about “Plaza Internacional”. This would be the first time I use vocals in Enternet boy's project. I want to directed a video for the performance too but I'm still organizing how this is going to be directed & played, surprises are coming 
- Any other thing that you want to say to your listeners?
Stay creative, trust in your institution, be true & be free
