Soul & Senses

About

A second chapter, grounded in experience.

Biography

Soul & Senses is a Chilean electronic duo formed by Cristian Paredes and José Tomás Gutiérrez, recognized as one of the projects that helped project the Chilean trance and progressive scene beyond its borders.

In 2010 they became the first Chilean artists to sign with Armada Music, the label founded by Armin van Buuren — a defining moment in their career and in the local electronic music landscape.

Throughout the years, Soul & Senses have performed on stages such as Lollapalooza Chile (Perry's Stage), Ultra Buenos Aires, Ultra Chile and Creamfields, sharing lineups with Above & Beyond, Ferry Corsten, Markus Schulz and Aly & Fila, with an emotionally impactful Progressive, Trance and House blended sound.

The present

Today, Soul & Senses operate from a place of artistic maturity, with a renewed focus on composition and studio work. In the live setting, Cristian Paredes — aka s1k — leads the project on stage, translating the duo's sonic identity into an immersive, physical experience, while José Tomás became a cascade of new tracks for the project from the studio.

The next chapter

In 2026, Soul & Senses signed a publishing agreement with Universal Music Publishing Group, opening a new phase in their trajectory. The partnership sets the framework for the release of new material, signaling a forward-looking evolution grounded in experience rather than nostalgia.
