  • Bio

    David Garcia has earned the reputation as one of the most versatile voices of the San Francisco & Los Angeles house music scenes. He is an artist who can successfully blend club anthems with underground sounds. In doing so, David creates a unique brand of House Music enjoyed both in the clubs and in the underground. His style and music selection consistently crosses genre and demographics, uniting the young raving crowds with more the experienced club goers. "I grew up in LA with Bangin' House and Techno, moving up to the Bay Area to find Deep House. It was then that I had to adjust and fine-tune all the ingredients." David introduced himself to the Los Angeles club scene over a decade ago by captivating listeners as a finalist on POWER 106 FM's POWERTOOLS DJ contest. While appearing at the most popular dance spots in Los Angeles and San Francisco, David continued to evolve his sound. Shortly after, he joined forces with Richard Vission and Tony B! in Los Angeles, as a co-producer on the POWERTOOLS radio show as well as on-air work on 106.1 KMEL-San Francisco, David soon began to build an avid and diverse following. Jet setting between Los Angeles and the Bay Area soon gave David the exposure he was looking for. David's street and on-air popularity grew. David accepted important residencies at CLUB X and THE SOUND FACTORY in San Francisco. David was also critical in conceptualizing a new underground radio show, "House Nation," on WILD 94.9 FM. In just six months, "House Nation" became the #1 rated radio show in San Francisco. After three years with "House Nation," David went on to establish "Radioactive" on Z95.7 KZQZ-San Francisco. "Radioactive" not only created an outlet for local DJ's, but was one of the first shows to feature the music and interviews of such dance personalities as Pete Tong, the Basement Jaxx, the Rhythm Masters, DJ Sneak, Dj Dan, Donald Glaude, Bad Boy Bill, Terry Mullan and more. It was the success of "Radioactive" that gave way to the release of David's first nationwide CD mix compilation, "DAVID GARCIA presents @ THE CLUB" Within the first two months of its release,"@ THE CLUB" sold over 10,000 units, occupying the #1 Electronica slot at the Virgin Megastore for 12 straight weeks. For the months that followed, David supported the success of his CD by blowing up dance floors with sets at Spundae, Space 550, and Club Release while connecting with his younger audiences at larger events like The Ultra Festival in Miami, Moonshine Over America Tour in Oakland, Together As One in Los Angeles, and Metropolis in San Francisco. In 2002, added the "Music Supervisor" to his already impressive resume, as he was chosen to work with the cult-classic global graffiti documentary, "BOMB IT", which featured original footage from many world-renowned graffiti writers of modern times, from Cornbread and TAKI 183 to Shepard Fairey to Revok. David's next move was his most dramatic, the formation of his own label (along with his partner, Richard Vission): SOLMATIC Records. Through SOLMATIC, David has transitioned and immersed himself into the production side of Electronic Music. Confirming David's talents as a producer are his releases which include, "Robofunk" on Soul Phusion Records (Licensed for Donald Glaude's MIXED LIVE AT BUZZ on Moonshine and Bad Boy Bill's BANGIN' THE BOX 5), and along with label and production partner Jay Walker an EP on Chicago's International House Records (IHR) titled "You Can't Change My Ways / Fascinated," and two releases on the coveted new House imprint Moonshine Red. Recent releases include “Taxi Cab” and a banging remix of the international dance hit “I Like That”. Chart support from global djs such as Judge Jules, Carl Cox, DJ Dan, Bad Boy Bill, Robbie Rivera, Richard Vission, John Acquaviva and many others, has taken David to the next level of his music career… Recent work include collaborations with Dave Aude, Morgan Page and High Spies as well as remixing the likes of Nelly Furtado, Korn, Jonathan Davis, Paradiso Girls, Space Cowboy, Snoop Dogg, Sisely Treasure of Shiny Toy Guns, Avicii, Luciana and La Roux, among others.

Being born in Caracas, Venezuela, growing up in Los Angeles then transplanting to San Francisco, has given me a unique perspective. Not only is my life filled with different flavors and influences, but it's also shaped my entire cultural outlook. A 'mash-up' of cultures and musical influences have shaped my style. I am passionate, not just about music, but in life (some say that's the Scorpio in me). My friends think I'm a workaholic but I love what I do, so it's a trade-off. My musical taste is diverse, ranging from Rock to Salsa and everything in between. I love music, it surrounds me, guides me, and excites me. My approach to things is laid back, but my vibe is intense. I believe in staying true, staying humble and most of all, being thankful.
