Miguel Puente
Origin: None
Despite his relatively young age, Miguel Puente is well travelled – born in Monterrey, Mexico, he lived in Chicago for two years in the 90’s, one year in Montreal in 2005 and has been living in Barcelona since 2008. The influences of these electronic cultural hubs echo through his productions and DJ sets.
Miguel has played in some of the most important clubs and parties around Mexico, Europe and South America, including annual gigs at BPM Festival with Akbal Music & his own parties Plus Plus ++ and Digital Delight, as well as Sonar Festival with artists like Fur Coat, James Teej, Art Department, Morgan Geist, Damian Lazarus, The Mole, Richy Ahmed, Russ Yallop, Alexis Raphael, and more.
His discography is more than impressive with releases on labels No.19 Music, Hot Waves, Diynamic, Cajual Records, OFF Recordings, Outcross plus working internally with Akbal Music for years now. Miguel has multiple collaborations with friends like Balcazar & Sordo, Louie Fresco, Bastard Love, Wildkats, and Climbers. Many of his tracks have charted for months and supported by the likes of Lee Burridge, Solomun, Lee Foss, Soul Clap, Miguel Campbell, Art Department, Droog, Jozif, Kiki, and many more.
With recent appearances on Boiler Room, John Digweed’s Transitions Radio Show, and Proton Radio, 2015 is shaping up to be a year to watch out for this young talent. His new project with Louie Fresco, Plus Plus ++, launched at BPM Festival and has continued with events around the globe providing an additional outlet for the music that comes so naturally to Miguel.
