Ocelot

Biography

Aaron Peacock aka oCeLoT makes music and travels Planet Earth playing it at parties and festivals. Aaron came from a musical family and plays lots of instruments. As a child he wanted to be an orchestra conductor when he grew up. The San Francisco psy scene of the 90's greatly influenced him as did the culture of psychedelics in general. Once "turned on" at age 18 there was no going back. The culture of psy trance provided a home for this bit of star matter we call oCeLoT. An oCeLoT is a wild spotted cat and is NOT a knight of any table round or otherwise.

Born in San Francisco in 1974, Aaron Peacock was still based in the city when he began performing psychedelic trance music under the Ocelot moniker in 2000; his music started appearing on a handful of labels -- Dropout Productions, Vertigo, and Ceiba -- a year later. Ocelot was not, however, Peacock's only musical outlet, as the multi-instrumentalist had released work as early as 1993, and had also worked under the name of VectorSelector.
