DJ MICKEY GARCIA

I began my music career as a DJ in the 1970s. In the 80s while in college, I was working as a DJ for a New York radio station 98.7 KISS FM as a Master Mixer thinking that I could make music just as good as the songs I was playing on the radio. Shortly after I had created the song I WON'T STOP LOVING YOU and was able to secure a recording contract with Next Plateau Records. The song was placed with the popular group C-BANK which became an international hit. Soon after I discovered the artist JUDY TORRES and recorded the song NO REASON TO CRY which was signed to Profile Records. I went on to write and produce Judy's first two albums. While C-BANK and JUDY TORRES was climbing the BILLBOARD charts, I created my own record label Micmac Records. I was able to discover and develop new talent and now owning my own company, I pretty much had much more control of every aspect of the business. I was able to discover and develop CYNTHIA, JOHNNY O. TIANA, TWO WITHOUT HATS, SOAVE, & MORE, NYASIA, THE RIOS SISTERS and so many others for Micmac. I wrote and produced many of the catalogs titles to this day and I am very happy to say that Micmac is still an active company releasing product since 1986. I'm still a DJ at heart and continue to spin music in nightclubs and for special concert events in some of the biggest concert arenas in america.
