Dennis Cruz is one of the pillars of the underground house and tech community. At 17 years old Dennis started djing whilst also studying sound engineer. In his 20s, he had already worked with several hiphop artists and rock bands in the studio with their production. As a DJ and producer he is truly setting trends with his fresh sounds and, off the back of his busiest year yet, he has plenty more in store for the world in 2017.

The Spaniard is never far away from the top of the charts thanks to his high rate of release on labels like Snatch!, Solid Grooves, Suara, Lemon-Aid and Suruba X amongst many others. For his work he has picked up many awards and nominations from being Beatport’s 3rd Best Tech House Artist to Resident Advisor’s 2nd Most Charted Artist of 2016. He has had many Number 1s on Beatport and is currently top of the overall Tech House Chart. Always serving up dancing dynamite, it is no wonder he has found favour with big hitters like Jamie Jones and Joseph Capriatti, Roger Sanchez and Marco Carola, all of whom reach for his tunes when they need to make an impact.
In 2015 Dennis was nominated Best Tech-House Dj and Best Spanish Artist at the Vicious Music Awards, and more recently in 2016 Dennis held 4 nominations, Best Tech-House Dj, Best Spanish Artist, Best Producer and Best Dj from Vicious.

As a DJ, too, Dennis always plots exciting musical journeys that make people feel real emotions as they dance the night away. He has woven together his wide musical influences and slick mix of styles all over Europe from Greece to the UK, across North and South America, Russia and all over Australia.

Punkphunk

With every transition and twist of an EQ knob, PunkPhunk entices his crowd to join him on a musical journey, as he carries listeners through time and space, soaring high through piercing treble notes and down through the valleys of warbling bass in an emphatic search of freedom from the burgeoning limitations of day-to-day.

With 20 years of DJ’ing behind him, and a releases on labels such as Move Muzik, it’s no wonder how his sets keep the crowd on their toes and draws closer with every track. His sets tell a story each and every time he hits the decks.

These days, PunkPhunk spends more and more time in the studio looking to add to his current catalog of both digital and vinyl releases. The next 6-12 will be exciting to watch as releases are lined up, and gigs in Europe are expected to closely follow.
