Elias started his career in 1990 in Palma de Mallorca, and in 1994, after having played in the best Mallorca clubs, he decided to take his chance in Ibiza where, just arrived, he signed up as resident DJ at “Space” on a very special date for him: the 6th of August, the day of his birthday.
From then on, his career spread out at international level, opening him the doors to Paris where just after the Ibiza season, he became resident DJ at the “Queen”, the most popular club in the city.
Once there, he got influenced by the French Touch, Balearic Beat and the 90’s New York Sound, a particular sound played at Kit-Kat that took place in the VIP room of Le Palace, the most elegant afterparty that he had ever seen where people danced the night away until midday on a deep sound, and that changed his concept of what was an after hours, since until then he believed that in an after you had to put mandatory harder styles like techno… But of course; the Parisians were very refined with music and that was part of the “French Touch”
In his career he has been invited to clubs of international reputation like Space, Ku, Privilege, Pachá, Ushuaïa, Amnesia and DC10 in Ibiza… Queen, Le Mix , Djoon , Le Palace and Les Bains Douches in Paris, and many other clubs in Europe, America, Asia and Middle East. And for big fashion events like “Bread & Butter Barcelona”.
He currently lives in Balearic Islands and he’s resident DJ at “La Démence” at FUSE Club in Brussels since 22 years. Which makes him the resident DJ with more years of seniority in this party.
He has produced for record labels as Bedrock Records, Stereo/Iberican Recordings and Stomp Recordings, this latter he set up with his associate José de Divina.
He also worked for Wagram Music, the French label with which he recorded the compilation “WADKlubmix by Elias/Paris/Ibz” and issued by the prestigious WAD Magazine.
Almost 30 years of experience and personality are reflected in his sets, where he always creates newly fresh and elegant playlists in any of his favourite styles: deep house, afro house, nu disco, house or tech house.
On the production side, he realised different works with the Stomp Productions group, where titles like Tijuana “Groove is in the air” stand out among others: this latter was remixed by Simon and Moonface and recorder in a double vinyl by Bedrock Records. The disc sold over 30.000 copies – an outstanding success for an underground production – and later recorded also in different compilations of Global Underground – like the ones by Danny Howells, Jon Digweed and Hernan Cataneo.
It should also be mentioned “Burning Drums of Fire”, remixed at that time by Marcello Castelli, released by Iberican Recordings (a sub-label of Stereo Productions) and many other compilations as well, like the one from DJ Chus.
His last productions “El Sol” is a resounding deep house theme published by the French “Nu Deep Music” and distributed by the famous Italian label “Gotta Keep Faith”. And “Reencuentro” in co-production with Jose de Divina and released by the Swiss label Gimmik Records.
