MNIS

Growing up in San Bernardino, Julio Reyes, better known as MNIS, developed a passion for house music and EDM throughout the years. He was introduced to these genres at a young age after his older brother brought him to Insomniac events. As the son of two Hispanic immigrants, MNIS was exposed to various tastes and styles, from the upbeat go-getter Spanish music of his dad to the disco his mom loved. He initially fell in love with punk and metal and learned to play the guitar and joined bands before eventually finding joy in house music. His influences and favs include Riva Starr, Claude Vonstroke, Mark Knight, Camelphat, Hot Since 82, and Totally Extinct Enormous Dinosaurs. MNIS played his first house show in San Bernardino with Revival Events before joining
