ENGLISH BIOS
ORIGINALLY FROM MENORCA, BORJA GOMILA FEEL IN LOVE WITH MUSIC AT AN EARLY AGE OF 13, HIS FATHER SHOWED HIM HIS FIRST PAIR OF TURNTABLES. BORJA FIRST SHOW WAS NEW YEAR EVE 1999 AND FROM THEN ON HE HAS BEEN INVOLVED IN THE MUSIC SCENE FOR NEARLY TWO DECADES.
STARTING FROM EDM AND HOUSE HIS REPORTOIRE ALSO INCLUDES ACID AND JAZZ BUT ALWAYS WITH A THE GROOVE THAT CHARACTERISES HIS STYLE. IT DIDN'T TAKE LONG FOR HIM TO DISCOVER THE PHILOSOPHY OF TECHNO THAT HE FELT INSIDE HIM AND THE UNMISTAKABLE SOUNDS OF THE RAVE MOVEMENT.
HE SLOWLY MET WITH OTHER DJ´S UNTIL HE FOUNDED THE UNDERGROUND MOVEMENT ON THE ISLAND, SO IMPORTANT FOR SOME AND TOTALLY NEW FOR OTHERS. DJING AT 16 YEARSOLD, IN RAVES ,CLUBS AND ABOVE ALL MAGICALLY VENUES ALWAYS WITH THE SPIRIT OF THE RAVERS OF THE TIME.
IN 2012 BORJA DECIDED TO LEAVE THE RAVE SCENE AND THE ANONYMITY AND UNDER HIS REAL IDENTITY HE LAUNCHED INTO THE BARCELONA SCENE, STARTING AT THE AFTER CLUB SELMOS AND THEN GAINING A RESIDENCY AT THE FAMOUS MACARENA CLUB. IT DIDNT TAKE LONG TO WORK IN OTHER CLUBS IN BARCELONA LIKE MOOG, BECOOL, THE WAREHOUSE (SALA INSTINTO), LA BOÏTE, BEGOOD, MACARENA BEACH, LE BAKO, OVER, CAFÉ DE MADEIRA, THE WAREHOUSE, PROYEVTO VÁLVULA, DISTRITO DIAGONAL (RAUM), SLOW CLUB, SECOND FLOOR, KGB AND NO NAME PLAYING HIS DISTINCTIVE STYLE OF TECHNO, AND IN EUROPE HE HAS PLAYED IN CLUBS LIKE MINISTRY OF SOUND (LDN).

DURING 2014 JUST SHAPE THEIR FIRST E.P. "OUR ROOTS" WITH ROGERVISION AND PUBLISHED IN GROOVYTECH REC, WITH GREAT ACCEPTANCE, WITH SUPORT FROM ARTISTS SUCH AS STEVE LAWLER OR RICHIE HAWTIN.
DURING THE SONAR 2015 IT IS PART OF THE SHOWCASE OF OLIVER HUNTEMANN WITH DUBSPEEKA AND ANDREW WINTER, BASIQ SHOWCASE WITH JORAN VAN POL O MICHAEL L. PENMAN, KONNEKT SHOWCASE WITH MATHEW CODEK AND MANY MORE.
HE HAS SHARED BOOTH WITH ARTISTS LIKE ALEX NIGGEMAN, JAMES TEEJ OR ANDREW GRANT AND NATIONAL AND JAVI LAGO, UNDO, ROBERT X OR TONY VERDI AMONG A VERY LONG ETC. WITH THAT BACKGROUND, IT WOULD NOT COST ANYTHING INVOLVED IN OUR OPEN AND URBANITE PHILOSOPHY AND KNOW HOW TO MOVE LIKE A CHAMELEON AND CLICK A VARIETY OF ELECTRONIC SOUNDS DEPENDING ON THE TIME AND SPACE.
FOR NEARLY TWO DECADES BEHIND THE TURNTABLES BORJA GOMILA HAS PLAYED FROM ACID HOUSE OR DEEP TO JAZZ OR TECHNO, REFLECTING IN HIS SESSIONS A BLEND OF STYLES, BUT ALWAYS WITH THAT FORCEFUL TOUCH FULL OF GROOVE.
