Creating a scene is no easy thing. But that is what Martín Parra has been doing in the Mexican Underground for the last 15 years. He is one of the most important and reliable names on the mexican dance scene. His unstoppable curiosity for electronic music, in every form, keeps him up to date on whatever’s happening on the dance floors of the world. To experience a party with him on the decks is not only a chance to dance the night away with the most uplifting beats, but also a fresh update in music. Throughout the 90’s, the rave phenomenon earned him a name and opened doors for him. Ten years have passed and Martín is still evolving. His place as the most popular deejay in México to date, has turned him into a talent worth exporting. The worldwide “boom” of electronic music in the mainstream has given him the chance to take his talents to other countries as well as sharing the stage with the world’s most famous Djs. He’s Djed alongside Paul Van Dyk, Oakenfold, Sasha, Digweed, Carl Cox, Deep Dish, Tenaglia, Moby, DJ Hell, Ricardo Villalobos, Sven Vath, Miss Kittin, Fatboy Slim, DJ Tiësto, Basement Jaxx and Tiga, to name just a few.
