DJing for over ten years, D´Funk started playing House and Garage in bars and clubs on the Costa del Sol, Spain. Back around summer 97 he began experimenting with different styles, such as Progressive House and Trance and soon after he organized nights called Juicy in Benalmadena. In 2000, he took on the name D’FunK and at the same time moved further along the cost around Marbella meeting up with the Raveface crew, an online Techno radio - Tv project that included producing and playing live on the Internet. At this point D´Funk´s sets where compiled of Deep House and Funky Tech House along with an occasional touch of the darker side of 2 Step, playing as resident for Raveface.com, ElectroSound and DanceKulture.

In 2001 he started playing at festivals and clubs in places such as Granada, Almeria and Torre Vieja, he also launched his own internet radio show on Raveface together with club nights called ‘DeepSensation’. By now his track list went from Deep Electronic Lounge to Electro House, Techno and Breaks. In 2005 he decided to take it all to the next level by dedicating a year to study Music Production at the Point Blank College in London. Whilst in the uk he played in small trendy bars in and around North London, and was invited to Dj at the first Rocket Festival in Andalusia, Spain.

In 2006 he moved to Manchester to study for a 3 year BSC Hons degree in Sound Engineering and Design at the School of Sound Recordings, whilst this took up most of his time, he did manage to fit in an invite back to play at The Rocket Festival plus Deejaying at some Electro House parties in Manchester. 2007 was a good year; he started producing Minimal, Tech-House and Breaks and played Ableton Live Sets n FX around the UK and Marbella (Spain). That year was the start of Elektek Recordings, a digital label set up by D’FunK.

This year has so far stared of well, he is playing Live sets monthly at Method (a night with artist signed to Elektek, Stealth 1) he is also putting on regular Elektek Live nights with the labels artists and invited guests from around Manchester. And not to forget, releasing new Ep´s on Elektek Recordings.
