What began as a party has gain international recognition and toured over 20 cities around the world and has evolved into much more than a party, a record label (MARICAS Records), a online platform, a mix series, a residency in Crack Magazine, EOS and Rinse FM UK,  but most importantly a community.  In 2023, together with Luli Acosta Quintas, they co-founded SENTIMENTAL, a booking agency specializing in artists around the spectrum of experimental electronic music. Additionally, they work as a project manager at GGT, a groundbreaking queer creative and design studio in Spain. They have served as a city connector for Resident Advisor, and as head of A&R in Yuukii Records.
