Cali Lanauze

Cali Lanauze, despite his young age, has been around for quite some time already. Born in San Juan, Puerto Rico, a small island in Caribbean, not a lot of people could associate his dark and eclectic grooves with his Caribbean roots, but Cali started in the music industry at a very young age; he was only 15 years old and since day one, he was releasing music and getting support from the heavyweights for his productions. At his young age, his influences and the support he got in the electronic music culture was enormous.
