At 17 years old Dennis started djing whilst also studying sound engineer. In his 20s, he had already worked with several hiphop artists and rock bands in the studio with their production. As a DJ and producer he is truly setting trends with his fresh sounds and, off the back of his busiest year yet, he has plenty more in store for the world in 2017. <\/p>\n<p>The Spaniard is never far away from the top of the charts thanks to his high rate of release on labels like Snatch!, Solid Grooves, Suara, Lemon-Aid and Suruba X amongst many others. For his work he has picked up many awards and nominations from being Beatport\u2019s 3rd Best Tech House Artist to Resident Advisor\u2019s 2nd Most Charted Artist of 2016. He has had many Number 1s on Beatport and is currently top of the overall Tech House Chart. Always serving up dancing dynamite, it is no wonder he has found favour with big hitters like Jamie Jones and Joseph Capriatti, Roger Sanchez and Marco Carola, all of whom reach for his tunes when they need to make an impact.<br \/>\nIn 2015 Dennis was nominated Best Tech-House Dj and Best Spanish Artist at the Vicious Music Awards, and more recently in 2016 Dennis held 4 nominations, Best Tech-House Dj, Best Spanish Artist, Best Producer and Best Dj from Vicious.<\/p>\n<p>As a DJ, too, Dennis always plots exciting musical journeys that make people feel real emotions as they dance the night away. He has woven together his wide musical influences and slick mix of styles all over Europe from Greece to the UK, across North and South America, Russia and all over Australia.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"DENNIS CRUZ\" width=\"500\" height=\"450\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?visual=true&#038;url=https%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Fusers%2F30108372&#038;show_artwork=true&#038;maxheight=750&#038;maxwidth=500\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<hr>\n<h5>LUPE FUENTES<\/h5>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/halcyon-sf.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Lupe-Fuentes-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" class=\"alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-4196\" srcset=\"https:\/\/halcyon-sf.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Lupe-Fuentes-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/halcyon-sf.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Lupe-Fuentes-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/halcyon-sf.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Lupe-Fuentes-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/halcyon-sf.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Lupe-Fuentes-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/halcyon-sf.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Lupe-Fuentes.jpg 1202w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/>House music icon, Junior Sanchez said it best, when he declared \u201cLupe was born to make music and be a DJ. She\u2019s fire!\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Having grown up in Columbia, a country rich with musical styles and sound, Lupe Fuentes has been living and breathing music for most of her life. While her humble beginnings may have implied a life less glamorous, Lupe\u2019s unyielding commitment to her craft has resulted in a breakthrough to the underground scene that is nothing short of remarkable. <\/p>\n<p>Drawing from her cultural roots, Lupe has created a musical identity for herself that\u2019s both timeless and refreshing. Her blend of stripped back tech-house with subtle hints of Latin rhythms and tribal percussion transform into dance floor anthems, casting the eyes and ears of industry leaders upon her.<\/p>\n<p>It was just a year and a half ago that Lupe Fuentes exploded into the scene with her debut record \u201cSo High\u201d. The hypnotic, tribal roller quickly found an impressive home on Junior Sanchez\u2019s Brobot Records, while the low-slung rhythmic funk and driving bass of follow-up \u201cDon\u2019t Hold Back\u201d hit Traxsource\u2019s Tech House Chart Top 5. It\u2019s plain to see: Lupe Fuentes is part of a new breed of producers to watch out for.<\/p>\n<p>Now residing in Los Angeles, Lupe remains a fixture on the US club circuit. Commanding the dance floors of the country\u2019s top nightclubs including Sound Nightclub, Exchange, Pacha NYC and Drai\u2019s After Hours to name a few, Lupe has poised herself as a leading lady of the underground.<\/p>\n<p>Almost as impressive as Lupe\u2019s productions, is perhaps the tremendous rate that she continues to fire out records. Over the course of the past 20 months, Lupe has released more than 20 records, gaining support from industry heavy-weights such as Dubfire, Nicole Moudaber, Maceo Plex, Booka Shade, Leftfield, Richie Hawtin, Carl Craig, Kerri Chandler, Claptone, Shiba San, Gorgon City, Todd Terry, Roger Sanchez, Danny Howard, Oliver Heldens, Prok &#038; Fitch, Tube &#038; Berger, Claude Von Stroke, and countless others! <\/p>\n<p>In 2014, Lupe launched her very own imprint, In the Loop, a platform for the crisp hi-hats and dark, groovy baselines, which have become the crux of her sound. In addition to her own releases, In the Loop showcases burgeoning talent, whom have captured and inspired Lupe\u2019s heart and ears. Jack Cousteau, Francis Kasibante, Mike Gloria and Vanilla Ace are just some of the names featured on the label.<\/p>\n<p>There is no doubt, Lupe\u2019s innate talent and passion for music is paramount to her success. She truly channels house music and all that it stands for, noting,&#8221;I don\u2019t do this for any other reason than I love house music, I love to DJ and I\u2019m compelled daily to produce&#8230; Be it one person or 50,000 on the dance floor, I\u2019ll make sure they feel like I\u2019m playing just for them!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"LupeFuentes\" width=\"500\" height=\"450\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?visual=true&#038;url=https%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Fusers%2F66766051&#038;show_artwork=true&#038;maxheight=750&#038;maxwidth=500\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DENNIS CRUZ Dennis Cruz is one of the pillars of the underground house and tech community.
