About Me
Having been raised in a Hispanic household, from early on, Bruno Robles was exposed to rhythmic music, predominantly of Cuban nature. It was no surprise that from an early age Bruno had a lively interest in music, pursuing lessons in percussion, keyboard and vocals. Armed with his developing music sense, he quickly developed an appreciation for the Italian underground disco sound that was very fashionable in Miami in the mid 80s. With guidance from established djs in the Miami scene, he visited local import-record shops were he was exposed to many different new sounds of music including the early traces of house. Still a bedroom DJ, he was encouraged by friends to spin at local underground parties, mainly for friends. Through time, his innovative sound quickly caught-on and he was hired as DJ for an organized day poolside party at a Miami Beach Hotel (which later turned into a night party in the ballroom).
Being in Miami Beach made him more accessible to talent thirsty promoters and was often solicited for private parties. Having such influences as Angel Moraes, Junior Vasques, Victor Calderone and Danny Tenaglia, Circa 1995, his style shifted and he gained a reputation for spinning quality house. The Miami Beach Club Boom was in full effect and it didnt take long before he was doing club appearances. One of the very first was at The Arch Club (later to become the infamous Club Chaos). Simultaneously, he was offered various jobs including opening for Eddie X at The Warsaw Ballroom, a South Beach institution at the time and host to a wide gamma of better known DJs. He did several appearances at Liquid which was one of the first to re-introduce the mega club to the SoBe scene. Soon after, he was booked directly by South Beach powerhouse, The Living Room.
Bruno has played alongside some of the better known names in the industry including Danny Tenaglia, Timo Maas, Mr.C, Oscar G. and Ralph Falcon (Murk), Robbie Rivera, and Grammy award winners Roger Sanchez and Paul Harris (Dirty Vegas) as well as Ibizas very own, and European favorites, Tania Vulcano & Loco Dice. Through a natural progression, his style encompasses an eclectic mix ranging from Electro, progressive and tribal house, to techno and progressive tech house. Bruno has held residencies at top venues such as Crobar in South Beach, Nikki Beach Club, Club Warehouse in Downtown Miami ( formerly club ENVY ), and Club Space. Club Space is known for its constant rotation of top-notch guest DJs such as Tiesto, Paul van Dyk, Deep Dish, Steve Lawler, Hernan Cattaneo, Danny Howells and home to world-class residents Oscar G, Cedric Gervais and Ivano Bellini. Presently, Dj Bruno holds a residency and is the daytime music director for Nikki Beach in South Beach. Nikki Beach is a landmark to most tourists and the place to be for the Miami locals.
