About Me

Palomo’s passion for electronic music spans the history of his deep roots in rhythm, sound, and dance. Playing the drums since the late 70’s and spinning vinyl since the early 80’s, he has evolved through the journeys of early New York hip hop, break beats, early Italian Disco, German and Detroit electro / techno to Chicago’s acid, house and industrial sounds. Driven by technology of the past, present and future, he established Zuvuya Recordings and launched the Galactic Tone series, being well received for its combination of driven techno, electro and industrial qualities. Zuvuya’s Lunar EP was honored as a finalist in the dance / electronic category of the International Songwriting Competition, spun by many International DJ’s like Dave Clarke, Felix Da Housecat and Tommie Sunshine, licensed by Mauro Piccotto and DJ Hell for their most recent CD mixes on Meganite and Time Warp, and received radio play in the UK, Germany, and XM Satellite Radio. Lunar and the follow-up release Electric Phaze were both praised with a 5-star review in Germany’s De:Bug magazine. Remix projects from Palomo include The Horrorist "13 Dobermans" Tim Xavier’s 773tekno03 “AzeeeO EP”, Greg Kobe’s “Feel the Funk EP” for Tim Baker's Elephanthaus Records and Jeff Storms “Release 1 EP” on Edensonic Records. Palomo’s earlier releases include the sounds of “Oscuro” on Fresca Recordings and “Trouble One” on Mindshift Records. Palomo’s drive, skills and dedication have landed him DJ sessions at every major club in Chicago, events across the U.S., festivals and club appearances throughout the world - Mexico, Germany, Belgium, Slovakia, Czech Republic and Bulgaria. His pre-teen style war beat street days as a breaker and graffiti writer a.k.a. Sez naturally led him to become a DJ, which he picked up easily after years of playing the drums since the early age of six. In the early 80’s he discovered Kraftwerk and Afrika Bambaataa. Taking their musical messages to heart, Palomo became a renegade of funk, seeking the perfect beats, which led him to the early Detroit techno scene and Chicago’s acid house craze. In the early 90’s, he was introduced to the Midwest raves and began organizing some of the craziest warehouse-loft parties Chicago has ever known. He continued into the 21st century with higher-profile events including the Conjugate Projekt’s unprecedented traveling subway party in Chicago. In addition to continuing the Galactic Tone Vinyl Series, As of recently, Gabriel and partner Adam a.k.a. Avex Axiom have launched Zuvuya Digital series exclusively distributed by GrooveSource.com and has joined forces with Kill Memory Crash of Ghostly International, as there drummer, as they prepare for the release of the new album in the spring and a world tour.
