BIO

Mike spent much of his leisure hours both at high school and college as a deejay on the campus radios.
His professional career started in 1983 at the “Futuriste” Club in the Montreal area. Simultaneously, and for next 2 years, he collaborated on arrangements for a musical: “Job”. Also, Mike acted as the soundman for Martin Fontaine and his band on their successful Quebec tour. Additionally, he prepared the musical arrangements for a programme devoted to sport featured on TVQF.

Over the 1984/5 period, Mike participated in several DJ competitions, one such being held by Larry Day at the September Club where he was awarded the second prize. And by 1991 he found himself elevated to the position of resident deejay at many Night Clubs in the Greater Montreal region: “The Octagone”, “Superpub”, “Braque”, and “Esprit”, to name but a few.

On becoming a member of Montreal’s “S.U.R.E” record pool in 1983 Mike met Robby Demlakian, founder of Bassic Records and rapidly became the soundman for this label, using his own studio for most of their productions. In the early 90’s Mike and Robby made some remixes for Unidisc, the most well known being D Train’s “You’re the one for me” on the Prelude label.

In 1987, Mike Perras was a member of one of the very first House music bands to be located in Montreal: “Made 2 Funk” giving live performances starring the singer Rodney Felix. Later Rodney was featured on Mike’s first production “You can’t ride the rhythm” released on the Bassic label in 1989. Subsequently several productions were made at his studio by such producers as Robert Ouimet, Gino Crescenza, Phil Dimarco and many others.

1991 saw a turning point in Mike’s life when his tracks “Beginning of Life” and “Keep Movin”, released on Bassic, were licensed over the ensuing years by top recording labels as “Azuli”, “BBE”, “Defected”, “International Deejay Gigolo” and more recently with “Global Underground” in September 2007.

Mike is deeply appreciative to those deejays who have continued unfailingly to support and promote his music throughout the years: Nick Warren (UK), DJ Hell (Germany), DJ Deep (France), DJ Jeno (California, USA) and, of course, Montreal’s Gino Gabriele with the weekly broadcast of his radio show “Blindfold Session” featured on 90HZ.org, and where Mike has had the good fortune to perform live on several occasions.

Finally, Mike is proud to be cofounder with his business partner Robert Ouimet, the renowned Montreal DJ, of “Mikrobe recordings” that has already many tracks sold on the web. Also they now have a brand new radio show on “TECHNO.FM” called “Mikrobe House Party”, produced by Mike plus hosted by Mike and Robert. This new partnership will provide an opportunity of releasing original soundtracks for numerous artists and thus continue to satisfy Mike’s passion for music.
