This is a record that made me so happy to do: coming back to my roots when I used to play techno in 90’s, and it’s my pleasure to release this track on Rambla Recs, a young label doing good for the industry, so I’m very happy!

It was always my dream since I was a child, I used to listen to electronic music and music bands like Depeche Mode, it’s a sound that has always been in my head to do in the future. Regarding production, I think it is the normal evolution for an artist, go from being a DJ it is something that costed a lot to achieve, so thanks to our work as DJs now we’re a reference.

Union is a project based on my own party which I collaborate with many international artists such as Kryder, CID, Tom Staar and new talents like Corey James, Dave Winnel, Jack Wins, Will K… and that includes a record label that I’m working to launch after this summer.

[/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”You are the resident DJ at David Guetta’s FMIF parties. How did you manage to get such an important residency, and how’s your relationship with David?” open=”true”]It’s an honor to work with David in Ibiza and FMIF world tour, it’s a dream come true! I visit the party as a raver 12 years ago and it really changed my life, so work as a resident DJ there now is mind-blowing! David is a super humble guy and a really good friend so it’s fantastic to work with him!

[/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”Which artists influenced you the most?” open=”true”]

I have several influence from 90’s Techno Pop by music bands like Front 242, Nitzer Ebb or Depeche Mode. Artist like Eric Prydz or Steve Angello influenced me a lot lately.

[/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”You are an experienced DJ, who played hundreds of gigs: what is the secret for handling any crowd?” open=”true”]The secret is a good previous mix set-up especially about making some exclusive edits and mashups but of course, the experience of many years djing gives you the best knowledge to control the crowd.[/vc_toggle][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_message style=”square” icon_fontawesome=”fa fa-handshake-o”]We’d like to thank JP Candela for the time he dedicated to us.
