DJ Mikey Fuentes first discovered his passion for house music from his older brother David, whose vast collection of mix tapes were his introduction to these new sounds. At 16 years old, Fuentes' first nightlife experience immediately sparked his obsession with legendary New York clubs like The Tunnel, Vinyl, Limelight and Twilo. The DJ's at these venues, Danny Tenaglia, Junior Vasquez and Hex Hector would become influential to his knowledge of house music.
 
A native New Yorker and avid traveler Fuentes has not only been exposed to but continues to absorb global and multi-cultural sounds, which resonates through all of his sets and mixes. These experiences have enabled him to develop an exquisite ear for music.
 
Fuentes believes in breaking barriers between sounds by seamlessly intertwining New York underground dance music with disco, garage, house, funk and soul. His effortless use of samples, diverse track selections and technical ability lends to a flawless mix of rhythms that erupt into uncontrollable movement.
 
With a lot of hard work and dedication to music, Fuentes has spun along side some of New York City’s finest including DJ Nita and Will Automagic of The Carry Nation, W. Jeremy Pelser and Christi Love of House of Stank, Sparber, Dawson and held a residency at Room Service NYC. You may have heard him take the decks at The Carry Nation, EPSP, Tenjune and Excessive Sound.
 
In addition to his solo projects, Fuentes continues to push boundaries collaborating with Sparber birthing the production and DJ duo, DONKEY. With two remixes under their belt for New York's Get Up Recordings and Gomination labels, DONKEY is committed to establishing musical endeavors through production and their signature SESSIONS mix series found on SoundCloud and Mixcloud.
