Now getting into the production side of things and hoping for releases to come out soon on Red ant records u.k ......cheers see you on the danefloor.

Like many, Alain’s grandparents & parents fled Cuba to provide a better life and opportunities for the family. Understanding their sacrifices, the hardships they endured and the lessons learned by this plays a huge factor on Alain’s philosophy in life: One has to do whatever it takes for happiness, freedom and to be unequivocally oneself. From a young age studying Taekwondo, His Sabumnim; Guillermo Mosquera, would play mixes while they trained. Alain noticed how he would get lost in the music. When he asked his coach what this music was, he said “It’s House Music!” and that was it. Every step since then Alain's passion and focus has been to share music with loved ones and fellow music enthusiasts, and show gratitude for the sacrifices made by his family & the support of music which has been and continues to be a guiding light.
