Biography:
A Journey Through the Art of Digital Sound
Stack Rack (Pedro Ferreira) is a veteran UK psytrance producer and DJ with over 20 years of experience sculpting high-energy sonic journeys for dancefloors worldwide. Since 2003, this Kent-raised artist has been pushing the boundaries of full-on and twilight psychedelic trance with his… Read moresignature sound: powerful driving basslines, crisp percussion, soaring arpeggios and roaring acid lines that deliver relentless energy perfect for that peak sunrise moment.
His journey began at age 15 in the Kentish woodlands and London's legendary squat party scene, where he cut his teeth making parties, DJing and immersing himself in the underground. Inspired by Hallucinogen's "Twisted" and a life-changing psychedelic experience, Pedro spent years studying music production, theory and computer music systems while developing his craft on his weapon of choice: Cubase.
After his debut live performance at The Fridge, London in 2008 alongside Ambivalent and Last Possible Solution Records legends (Scorb, RAM, NRS), Stack Rack released his acclaimed album "Planetary Collisions" in 2009, praised for its variety and depth. Since then, his sound has evolved into something more deliberate and impactful—a blistering ride of full-on intensity with groovy elements and hypnotic leads that command attention.
Recent highlights include his "Random EP" on Cosmic Era reaching #3 in the Beatport Psytrance Release Charts, featuring the collaboration "Year of the Snake" with Random (USA). He's also released standout collaborations with Kri Samadhi ("Brain Drain"), Distant Touch & Daksinamurti ("Moon Juice") and Wavelength ("Alpha Centauri"), while delivering powerful remixes for Rugrats, NaiLik, Ionkhe and Sabretooth.
Stack Rack has taken his sound international, touring Japan with a 5-club week in Tokyo (2023), performing at Touch Samadhi Festival (North Carolina, 2019), Sacred Earth Festival (Missouri, 2022) and sharing stages with Burn in Noise at Elemental in Leeds and performing at Maui Waui Festival. He's also opened for heavyweight acts including Ace Ventura, Laughing Buddha, Symbolic, Mandala and Tron.
His releases span respected labels including Sculpted Sounds (California), MMD Records (Cape Town) and Nexus Media (Cape Town), with music also featured on compilations across the global psytrance scene. Operating under additional aliases Anthropod, Alien Devices and Systematic Audio, Stack Rack continues to explore different facets of psychedelic sound.
Currently, Stack Rack is working on an ambitious 9-track album featuring solo productions and collaborations with artists from around the world, alongside upcoming remixes for Journey OM, Merlin's Apprentice and Deviant Species, plus upcoming releases on Free-Spirit Records, Phonix Records and collaborations with Contineum, R4DIUM and Garic Mars.
With two decades of dedication to the psychedelic trance movement, Stack Rack remains committed to creating deliberate, powerful and transformative sonic experiences that capture the hearts and minds of the underground.
