The band started performing live shows in a similar way a DJ set is made, performing only in night clubs and other social events, and quickly gaining recognition in the electronic scene in Mexico City. The live band consisted of guest vocalists that helped performing the band's remixes to other artists. Since this early stage Victor Piter has been the drummer for their main live show.

In 2007, Bacardi's B-Live tour enlisted Disco Ruido to perform a collaboration show with Elohim Corona from Moderatto. The show resulted in an hour-long DJ set from Julian accompanied by visual arts by Peto, and other guest artists as Tito F from Molotov and Paco Huidobro from Fobia. The show toured most of Mexico's main cities but became impossible to continue due to increasing touring schedules from both Disco Ruido and Moderatto.

In early 2008 vocalist and lyricist Mercedes Nasta joined the band, according to them "she came up to the DJ booth at a nightclub and said that she was the person we needed for the band" after a few rehearsals she officially joined the band for their "2008 MX Beat Festival" performance. Now with more original material the band became a reliable opening act for international artists in Mexico.

Sol
Disco Ruido! Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sangra el astro incandescente
Guerrero estridente
Tierra gris fosforescente
Mago

Y germinas palidez que ramifica tu temor
Y que no crees en el amor
¿Qué hago?

Si me derrite oír tu voz
Aunque sé que es un mal veloz
Mejor regreso con los míos
Y hago sol
El limbo me estaba matando
Pero estoy reconociendo
Que tal vez no estás en esta dimensión
Amigos, así esto no estalla
Y por que el lápiz no falla
Si son tuyas las vocales del adiós

Si me derrite oír tu voz
Aunque sé que es un mal veloz
Mejor regreso con los míos
Y hago sol

Con mis amigos
Y hago sol

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Disco Ruido!'s song "Sol" seem to convey a sense of confusion and struggle against an overwhelming force, represented metaphorically by a bright, burning celestial body ("astro incandescente") and a loud, militant warrior ("guerrero estridente"). The singer seems to be addressing someone who is afraid and untrusting of love, urging them to have faith ("que no crees en el amor, ¿qué hago?") while also admitting to their own vulnerability ("si me derrite oír tu voz, aunque sé que es un mal veloz"). The references to "tierra gris fosforescente" and "mago" suggest a surreal or otherworldly landscape, perhaps reflecting the internal turmoil of the singer's psyche.

As the song progresses, the singer seems to reach a moment of clarity and decision, declaring that they will return to their friends ("mejor regreso con los míos") and "hago sol" or create their own sun. This could be interpreted as a sign of empowerment, a refusal to be consumed by the burning light of the "astro incandescente" or to sacrifice their own well-being for the sake of the fearful object of their affection. The final lines, "y por que el lápiz no falla si son tuyas las vocales del adiós / con mis amigos y hago sol" ("why does the pencil not fail if the vowels of goodbye are yours / with my friends and I make sun"), suggest a finality and acceptance of the situation, even as the singer moves on towards a brighter future.
