What is
Makineo

Makineo is a discovery platform for electronic and underground techno music in Spain. It brings together the scene's experiences, artists, venues and labels in one place, with tools to decide what to go to and who with.

The problem it solves

Information about the Spanish electronic scene is scattered: experiences are announced in Telegram groups, in Instagram stories that vanish in 24 hours, and on flyers with unreadable dates. Small venues often have no digital presence at all.

The result is that you miss things happening ten minutes from home. Big platforms cover the large experiences, but not the local scene or small-capacity venues.

Makineo aggregates that scattered information, structures it and presents it by city: upcoming experiences with real prices, artists with their dates, and venues that would otherwise appear in no search engine.

A year of work

June 2025The idea

One night we missed an experience because it wasn't announced anywhere. So we opened the editor and got started.

Summer 2025The core

Database of experiences, artists and venues. Integration with public data sources. The first real data on screen.

Autumn 2025The platform

User profiles, artist-following system, crews, reviews. The social layer that makes it all make sense.

Winter 2025The details

Dark design, attendance badge system, experience map, underground mode. Everything that turns a catalog into an experience.

June 2026Launch

Makineo goes live. With real experiences, real artists, real venues. For the Spanish scene that deserves it.

Who's behind it

Santi

Founder and developer · Data Engineer

I'm Santi, from A Coruña. I've spent years in Spain's techno and electronic scene, going to clubs, following artists, coordinating with friends on where to go each weekend. And through all that time I kept running into the same problem: there was no single place where it all came together.

The platforms out there cover bits and pieces, but none of them properly cover the Spanish local scene. Telegram groups get drowned in noise. And you end up missing out on stuff that was ten minutes from home.

I decided to build it myself. I work as a Data Engineer, so I have the tools to do it right: automated scraping, clean data, search that actually works. But more than anything, I had a crystal-clear problem because I live it firsthand.

Frequently asked questions

What is Makineo?

A Spanish discovery platform for electronic and underground techno music. It aggregates experiences, artists, venues and labels from across Spain in one place, organised by city.

Why do you call them "experiences" instead of events?

Because not every event is the same: a session at a small club, a festival or an underground party feel different. "Experience" captures that — it's not just a date on a calendar, it's what you live that night.

Is it free?

Yes. Access is free and there is no advertising. Venues and promoters are not charged to appear either.

Do I need an account to use Makineo?

No, browsing experiences, artists and venues doesn't require signing up. You only need an account to follow artists, join a crew, save experiences or leave reviews.

How is it different from other event listings?

The focus is on the real scene, not just the big experiences: small venues, real prices and coverage of cities the large platforms ignore. It also adds a social layer — crews — to coordinate who you go with.

Which cities does it cover?

All of Spain, with more density in cities with an active scene. Each city has its own page with experiences, venues and a weekly narrative of what's moving.

Where does the data on experiences, artists and venues come from?

It's aggregated from public sources (venue websites, listings, Resident Advisor) and from promoters and venues themselves when they publish directly on Makineo. There's no payment to appear and no purchased featured spots.

What are crews?

They're private groups to coordinate with your friends which experiences you're going to: who's confirmed, who already has a ticket, who's in. So you never lose track of who you're going out with each weekend.

How can I add my venue or my events?

Promoters and venues can request an organiser account to publish and manage their own events. You can also reach us from the contact page.

Independent project

Makineo has no outside investment, no promoters behind it and no advertising. Access is free. Experiences are aggregated from public sources and from promoters themselves, with no pay-to-appear or purchased featured slots.
