• After an intense early career as a drummer, composer, lyricist, and founding member of bands such as The Refrescos, Def Con Dos, and Los Petersellers—achieving gold records and large-scale tours by the age of 20—I went on to break into the international electronic scene in the late 1990s. I became one of the world’s pioneers of live house percussion, helping establish this format from Madrid, Ibiza, and London, which led to performing as a percussionist for Ministry of Sound on their world tours in the early 2000s.

  • I have performed in nearly 40 countries, holding residencies in European clubs and regularly appearing in venues across Marbella and Ibiza. I have shared stages and setups with many of the genre’s leading artists, including Carl Cox, David Guetta, Fatboy Slim, John Digweed, Roger Sanchez, John Aquaviva, David Morales, Frankie Knuckles, and Paul Oakenfold.

  • My shows combine traditional musical instruments with fully custom alternative MIDI controllers, developed in my studio using sensor-based technology.

  • I also co-create and co-produce SENSORMEN, a musical theatre production with the company YLLANA, blending physical comedy, electronic music, and technology. The show has toured top-tier theatres across Spain and Europe, with around 250 performances, including a month-long run at the Red Hall of Teatros del Canal.

    I have taken part in numerous recording projects and produced other artists in my own studio.

  • I have been commissioned by a wide range of multinational brands, delivering tailor-made shows for their events. Several of these clients later entrusted me with the creative and production leadership of their large-scale corporate events.

  • I hold a degree in Journalism and Communication from Universidad Complutense de Madrid and worked for five years as a journalist and copywriter before fully committing to music and the performing arts.
