Biography of ACA (YU)
Dirty vocals for the Ibiza dancefloor
During Secret Sessions nights at Avyca, ACA (YU) has become one of the most recognizable signatures of the island's dirty tech house: twisted basslines and choruses sung by himself, with a rave attitude that doesn't soften the groove. A DJ, producer, and singer of Serbian origin, he anchors his sound between the underground club and a vocal theatricality rarely seen in the scene.
From German hip hop to Lío and Destino
At 16 years old, he was singing in clubs in Germany, still influenced by hip hop and R&B. House music arrived through his sister and the shift was immediate: he started producing house and, later, tech house, DJing in the German underground scene. The move to Ibiza placed him in bigger booths: parties at Eden, a residency for Ibiza Talents at Lío and Pacha Destino, and later Amnesia, Hï Ibiza, Space, Aura in Sydney, Repopulate Mars at Eden, Moxy Muzik showcases, Boogeyman at Tantra, and the Secret Sessions themselves at Avyca, where he shares the bill with names from the minimal and tech house circuit.
TOZLA, ACCUSED and the label circuit
Together with Mene, he co-founded TOZLA, a label that crosses tech house, hip house, and underground groove, which has released tracks by Amine Edge & DANCE or Reelow. From Barcelona, he launched ACCUSED, an imprint for raw, dark, garage-accented beats, designed for afterhours and peak-time dancefloors. His catalog spans Ibiza Talents, Clarisse Records, CUFF, Moxy Muzik, Nervous Records, Deeperfect, Moan, Kaluki, Bamboleo, Mood Child, Griffintown Records, Lapsus Music, PVCLB, and Lotusland. Tracks like Tricky —with Amine Edge & DANCE and Mene—, No Me Impolta, Selecta, Freakazoid, Late Night Fantasy, White Ride, or Illegal Rave summarize that direct line. He has received support from Jamie Jones, Marco Carola, Fisher, The Martinez Brothers, Loco Dice, Dennis Cruz, Paco Osuna, Darius Syrossian, Latmun, Detlef, Mason Collective, Archie Hamilton, Reelow, Hector Couto, Richy Ahmed, Wheats, and wAFF.
Between the island, Barcelona, and the international circuit
Today he moves between Ibiza and Barcelona, with a regular presence at Secret Sessions, dates at ADE, and appearances in booths like Cova Santa (Pantheøn) or Seadeck in Sydney. In 2026, he appears on FABRICLIVE presents Eliza Rose. The current portrait is that of a tastemaker of the new school of house: his own voice, his own labels, and a booth still anchored to the island's dirty underground.
