Jose, who also goes by the moniker of Phunk Floyd, was born in 19??. He started early being involved with music at the age of 12 when he was introduced to the classical genre. Later, at the age of 14, he started his first electronic rock band playing covers of Depeche Mode, Duran Duran, New Order, and others. After 3 years he decided to join forces with Domingo Caballero a.k.a Dezzy, who is one of the most influencial faces of Ecuador's electronic scene. They started their own project called 'Darkness', releasing their first 12" 'Frustration/Just A Joke' in 1990. The single was relatively successful around the country and on the radio stations. Jose took a break to study in the States for five years soon after this. After his return, he formed the first live electronica act in Ecuador called 'Ultra 7' with his partner Dezzy. They played music that ranged from Ambient to Drum & Bass to Breaks. This opened the door for and inspired many others to create live act in the country and made the scene begin to flourish. Jose left 'Ultra 7' when he saw the possibilities of his DJ career taking off. He began DJing at Pelikano Beach Club and also producing tracks ranging from minimal tech to house and progressive.
