As an all-time music lover, he began working in the Barcelonan night life at a young age. Motivated strongly by the musical scene that was binding the aristocratic city at that time.
Music was and still is the motor of his life, which he is so fascinated in, and was also what made him start a career as dj in 1998, working in a circuit of clubs that the magical city of Barcelona beholds. Focused on electronic dance music, he is always trying to find the groove and add a personal touch of sensibility in his sets. Additionally, he never stopped searching for the fusion that brings together the music with the next track that he’s playing, which he manages by his particular and refined taste for the most special trend and the wide variety that the electronic music posses. He soon began traveling to places like the Moog, La Terrrazza, the Nitsa club in the Apolo theater, the CO2, the Isla D’Encanta, the Fonfone, the Macarena, the now mythical and disappeared Cube Club, situated where it used to be, the Japan, Club 13, famous for its young people parties, and others out of Barcelona like L’Atl‡ntida de Sitges, el ¿mbit del principado de Andorra, the 7Ë Art in Gerona and the Lexus-Backroom of Vic.
In 2002, he was part of the Star/Cue, a group dedicated to the development of electronic music in Cataluna. With REC, they went to different cities and music festivals in Cataluna, and their participation in the OPEN AIR festival was outstanding.
Their ELECTRO BOHEME in which djs were mixed up with live shows formed an extraordinarily step in their career.
For shows outside Spain, they went to the Trompellier in Montpellier, France and, recently, Electro Reality in the Philipines.
After 2005, he achieved his first Korg, a box of rhythms that lets him express part of what this artist has to share through the pen name of CROKAN in the musical language.
In 2007, after living and experiencing life and music in his hometown, it was time for him to set out on a new quest to Asia. Becoming the co-founder of Science of Sounds, together they were to bring new ideas to the Asian stages, and by doing so, to open the doors to the international electronic music. Currently acting as the manager for many artists; in the meantime he also combines his work inside Science of Sounds with that of his own individual productions under the name of CROKAN.
Whether as Dj or just as Crokan, his trail was all over Asia. Having obtained residence in many places like the Comrades Club, Cellar Club and Club Noxy , which are all in Guangzhou, the CafÈ Kafka in Yunnan, The Blazing Club in Dongguan, the Warehouse 135 and the Embassy in Manila, Club Tango and White Rabbit in Beijing, Club Q97 in Hong Kong and The Wall in Taipei.

音乐是他生命中生生不息的动力，他为此而着迷，也因此走上了作为dj的道路。1998年，他开始在巴塞罗那的一系列酒吧打碟，主打电音舞曲。他总是在寻找那最佳的切点，以自己对音乐感性的触觉，对电音细腻、独特的品位，将两首曲目最完美的融合。不久之后他便在多家极具人气的俱乐部巡回打碟，那些响当当的名字如Moog, La Terrrazza, 阿波罗剧院内的Nitsa 俱乐部, CO2, Isla D’Encanta, Fonfone, Macarena, 不见踪影但地处原Japon“遗址”的、传说中的Cube Club, Club 13 的年轻人派对,出了巴塞罗那还有一些酷乐部如 L’Atl‡ntida de Sitges, el ¿mbit del principado de Andorra, el 7Ë Art en Gerona 和Vic的 Lexus-Backroom .
