Sprado's Bio
Growing up in a suburb of Los Angeles in the late 80's and early 90's opened my ears to many styles of dance music.
I grew listening to KROQ, N.W.A., freestyle, 80's disco...when the whole rave scene popped up I got to listen to Mars FM, Renegade Radio, Powertools, and collected URB magazine. Then I was introduced to a different type of house, this was deep-soulful-jazzy-gospel-real vocal house music via "The Underground Beat" hosted by Terence Toy. I would attend some local afterhours, see Little Louie Vega, Tony Humphries, and Frankie Knuckles at DYMK, and my life was forever changed! My DJ heroes continue to be L.A.'s house music royalty: Terence Toy, Marques Wyatt, Tony Largo, David Alvarado, Miguel Plasencia, and Fabian (no specific order).
I began recording off the radio and collecting mixtapes over the years, so I have quite a selection (see Simfonik.com>Saul Prado for one of my submissions). Nowadays I collect records and mix my own interpretations of Deep-Soulful-Garage-Vocal house music. You will also hear me mixing house with some techno, trance, 80's dance, and a few surprises up my sleeve on SoundCloud and Fnoob >>>Sprado.
