Born in Miami to Cuban and Argentinian parents, Sean Bauzay began drumming in 1989 while in the marching band at Miami Coral Park Senior High School. He later marched for the University of Miami drumline from 1991-1995 under the instruction of Troy Breaux and Jason Sutter (currently performing with Chris Cornell). Since the early 1990s Sean has been involved with the Miami local music scene; both original and cover bands.
Sean's former original band from the mid-nineties named "Y" is currently working on their 2nd full length studio release. Recorded at Gloria and Emilio Estefan's Crescent Moon studios and Criteria studios in North Miami, their first studio full length release entitled "Radio Smoke Box" was released in early 1996. Y began work on their second album in 1999 and had to abandon the project due to personal reasons within the band. Seven years later, Y have decided to finish the album and release it sometime in the near future. Check out Y's myspace page for more info (and add us to your friends list!): myspace.com/yband.
Aside from the drumming Sean's also a dj. He began his dj career in 1999 after having been highly influenced by Electronic Dance Music in the mid nineties. His style now varies from progressive, tech, lounge house to old skool and new skool, progressive breakbeats and some electro.
In the Spring of 2000 Sean landed his first gig at Miami Beach's legendary Groove Jet night club spinning old school breakbeats. Since then he has expanded his range of style from solely breakbeats to a mix of both house and breakbeats.
In the Fall of 2001 Sean entered and won the 2001 Cooljunkie.com dj competition with his progressive house demo, "Disconnected". The prize for winning the competition was an opportunity to perform at Miami's world famous Club Space. In November of 2001 Sean opened up for DJ Edgar V in the main room of the old Club Space and began to gain a fan base in Miami.
That event ignited his dj career and since then Sean has gone on to play at most major clubs in Miami and Miami Beach including Space, Level,Crobar, Billboard Live, The Living Room and Rain. He also played at the 2003 Ultra Festival in Miami.
Following the release of his latest demo entitled "Buildings", heralded by many local critics as a top notch progressive house mix, Sean has performed even more often and at bigger events such as opening up for Confucius of Rabbit in the Moon twice and performing at performing at Hallucination Recordings parties Hallucination B4 Christmas 2002 ,Blood on the Turntables 2003, and Hallucination B4 Christmas 2004.
Thanks to a recommendation by DJ Monk (of Rabbit in the Moon fame), Sean got to perform in Puerto Rico twice at Club Sala in Old San Juan headlining the main room two back to back Saturday nights. In April 2007 he travelled to Argentina and was the first Miami house dj to perform at Hurlingham Bar in the city of Mendoza.
