He began his career playing new wave and disco music at clubs in the city of Rosario during the early 1980s, later moving to Buenos Aires.

[1] In 2001, his musical style shifted to a Latin-influenced house and techno sound, which he produced and performed through his 7-year weekly residency at London's Fabric nightclub.

Soon after Ariel played his first European set at Pacha followed by guest performances in Lola, Es Paradis, including one gig at the recently launched terrace at Space.

He was offered a ten-hour-long set in the second room of Bagley's Studios in Kings Cross (now renamed Canvas) for the weekly Saturday night event, Freedom.

In 2005, Ariel began a partnership with young producers Alex Celler and X Green to co-produce further music projects, and in March 2007, he officially launched his digital record label MyDust.
