Daniel was born in Madrid in 1977 and has lived there ever since. In the mid-90’s he began to study Law at the University of Madrid. After graduation he decided to specialize in human resources, greatly motivated by the human side that his training provides. While still studying he developed his musical activity, actively participating in musical events and meetings, and thus acquiring enough self-taught musical know-how to begin to compose, record and produce his own songs in 1995, at the age of 18.Since then he developed his creative activity totally on his own, putting his faith on what he considers his true vocation. He is greatly influenced by artists such as Faithless, Moby, Depeche Mode, Almadrava, Vangelis or Mike Oldfield, and cinema soundtrack composers such as Alan Silvestri, James Horner or John Williams.In 2002, his song “Donde fuiste feliz” won the critics’ award in the musical talent web portal realizarte.com. Greatly encouraged by the reviews, he decided to get to work on the edition of his songs for his first album, published in January 2006: “Prohibido subir al escenario”. Previous to this, Daniel participated in different forums and media teaching music-oriented computer science in the realm of digital sampling and sequencing. In 2003 he composed the soundtrack for two short films by Raúl Useros (“Bancos” and “Diga”). This was his first incursion in the world of cinema. That same year he received, along with the artist from Madrid Elena Barragán, a scholarship from the Alcobendas City Hall supporting his creativity.Prohibido subir al escenario” (“Going onstage is not allowed”) is the culmination of a creative process that brings together a unique identity, a fusion of styles and sound nuances, songs with a great musical richness and technical variety that bring the listener to an eclectic concept of forms and feelings. Songs that encompass styles such as pop, acoustic, electronic, orchestral… and that you can listen to here.
