About Me

Ecuadorian born musician, producer, engineer and one-man band Miguel Coka has become synonymous with NewWave Electronic music.Music has always been a compelling outlet for personal expression, which I have been able to develop more strongly in this country. In my childhood music surrounded me -- voices, pianos, guitars -- but it was in high school that I discovered my gift for songwriting and gained exposure to some of the artists who have become my greatest influences: Bernard Sumner, Martin Gore, Peter Hook, BT, Robert Smith, Bono, Dave Gahan. I typically compose on the piano and later perform on guitar. Currently I am a graduate of SAE Miami, where I received a diploma in Audio Engineering in October of 2005.Released (Digital Release only) his first two singles Busy Street and Bright Eyes in the fall of 2006 which are available at The iTunes Music Store for download. Currently working on a debut album.Pro Tools 101 certified. Member Grammy Florida Chapter. Apple Certified Help Desk Specialist.Some of my recent accomplishments are included below.Finalist on Ed McMahon’s nextbigstar.com March 2000, Honorable mention in Billboards songwriting contest November 2001.
