Pachyman is an artist who has been recognized for his distinct reggae beats and a retro sound that harkens back to the roots of the genre. Embracing a dub style reminiscent of the pioneering Jamaican producers of the 1970s, Pachyman, real name Pachy García, infuses his music with a sense of nostalgia while imbuing it with a fresh, contemporary energy. Based in Los Angeles, he has been making a name for himself within the reggae and dub communities through his homage to the analog soundscapes that characterized the early days of reggae music production.

His releases such as "The Return of…" showcase his adeptness at recreating and innovating within the genre, often handling most, if not all, the instruments and production roles himself. Heavily influenced by reggae greats like King Tubby and Lee 'Scratch' Perry, Pachyman's sound is characterized by heavy bass lines, syncopated rhythms, and the clever use of effects that define the dub sound. With albums like "El Sonido Nuevo de" and singles such as "All Night Long," he has demonstrated a knack for both instrumental and vocal tracks, capturing the energy of a live sound system within his recordings. Fans of the genre can appreciate Pachyman's commitment to vintage recording techniques while enjoying his music's modern flair, a key to his growing popularity in the reggae and music enthusiast communities.
