Description
Born and raised in Barcelona, Brain’s profile in Spain is already that of a super star DJ. His productions have fired up the country’s dance floors for years. His first remix, Frank Trax’s ‘Alchemy’, saw him signed to Tempo Music where he continued to unleash track after track, not just in his native land but across Europe and as far afield as South America.
His growing reputation was cemented when Amnesia in Ibiza named him as one of three new resident DJs in 2003. He joined Mar-T and Les Schmitz as the hot new generation chosen to represent the sound of one of the world’s most famous clubs, in Ibiza and on world tours that encompassed North America, Europe, Asia and Australia.
It wasn’t long before two major acts on the global circuit were watching Brian with intent. Armin van Buuren and Robbie Rivera both snapped him up to play at their respective nights, Armada Nights and Juicy Ibiza. The young producer/DJ was exposed to some of the most passionate clubbers in existence as they flocked to the White Isle to revel in its infamously hedonistic atmosphere. Rocking the crowd with every performance, Brian impressed from the outset with his DJing skills and his own productions, which go with saying were beyond hot!
Soon he was working closely with Armin’s Armada label, signing ‘4U’ as a single release, touring internationally with them and collaborating on new works and compilations. By 2005 he had more than made his mark and was asked to go into the studio with his all-time hero, the legendary Marco V, to create the new compilation series ‘Amnesia DJ Sessions’. The album won rave reviews from press and music fans, smashing into charts around the world. Cue another international tour, this time playing with Marco himself. Is it any wonder that Deejay Magazine Spain awarded him Best International DJ 2005?!
Capitalising on his growing success, Brian went on to record Amnesia DJ Sessions Volume 2 in 2006, once again experiencing huge acclaim and commercial success. September of the same year saw his track ‘Over My Skin’ hit, with an insane 10 week playlist on Radio 1’s world-renowned Judge Jules show. Remixes flooded in from Robbie Rivera, David Vendetta, ORGAN, Elastica, Observer, Tony Arzadon, Roster & Peralta and Inphinity. Signed to JUICY MUSIC, it was licensed across the board including Universal Music’s HIT division, underlining Brian’s status as one of the hot new producers to keep an eye on.
As 2008 gets well underway with Ibiza beckoning, and with Brian holding onto a packed international diary, there is another huge page to turn as Brian unleashes his next weapon " ‘Paradise’. This next single is set to do some serious damage having been signed to 12 territories already.
Brian Cross is no flash in the pan, he means business, and by the turn of the New Year, we know we won’t be eating our words. World - hold on tight!
