We are sad to hear that Arguru has died in a car accident on 3 June 2007.  He was a very talented programmer and creator of a lot of great software, including NoiseTrekker, which formed the basis for the very first version of Renoise.

Arguru

Juan Antonio Argüelles Rius will be remembered as a very productive and talented developer, starting new projects every few months.  His work includes NoiseTrekker, Aodix, Modix, and Psycle and plugins such as DirectWave and StarDust.  He was also recently involved with projects for ImageLine FL Studio.

We offer our condolences to Arguru’s family and friends. Rest in Peace, Arguru.

    i stand here in utter shock to find out Juan Antonio Argüelles Rius has passed away. i didn’t know him personally at all, though, i have complete respect for the man that has built a great many things….. i remember using his psycle 1.7.4 program a number of years back and it seemed very clear to me he was a person to honor/pay homage to ….. with a long standing mantle of programming genius he was & always will be remembered
    for.
