Luca Ruiz

Unconditional music lover, after 7 years playing violin at Montpellier music academy, he discovers electronic music in 2004 clearly influenced at that time by the german minimal scene. After spending his formative years exploring the many facets of house & Techno , his style has definitely become more deeper. His strong predilection for Chicago House & Detroit Techno music exerts a direct influence on his choices developing an approach always focused on the groove, whether it is dark or moody.
