Santa Cruz

FOUNDAT IONSFrom a very young age Santa Cruz was in constant contact with the Music. He developed a strong passion for it, most particularly influenced by his father: a pianist in the Armed Forces’s Orchestra, and his mother who collected vinyl discs. Those two inflowings gave him both the love for enjoying music and the discipline to investigate, create and perform.Impressed by great world-wide artists such as Technotronic, New Order and Yazoo, Santa Cruz discovered electronic music and managed to obtain his first vinyl plates SL 1100. They had only a rotatory pair of pitch (33 & 45) and were the perfect tool for him to start playing music.BEGINNINGSSanta Cruz career as a DJ began at the age of 16, when he performed in many underground electronic parties in Uruguay.
