Speaking about the release of his debut album ‘Signature’, Santiago commented:
“Signature is an album diverging focus from the dance floor but meant to make people dance anyway. There’s no specific genre being aimed for here, I just wanted to showcase the roots and elements from my culture, as well as the ones I’ve visited in my travels and work. Two years I’ve been working on this project; making music in different studios, living rooms and personal spaces around the world with artists I have deep appreciation of”.
Crafted with passion, innovation and a unique artistic vision, ‘Signature’ is a testament to Santiago Garcia's exceptional talent and creativity. From soul-stirring melodies to infectious rhythms, it promises to captivate listeners with its sonic diversity and emotional depth; each track showcasing Garcia's unwavering dedication to his craft and his commitment to pushing the boundaries of electronic music.
Born and bred in the vibrant city of Buenos Aires, Santiago Garcia has been at the forefront of an established wave of artists supplying the deep house and melodic techno traditions since their early inception.

Enjoying inherent artistic freedom afforded by only an elite few, and with the backing of some of the most sought-after labels in the industry, Garcia’s prolific output is tinged with dynamic, indie sensibilities and evokes feelings of self-reflection and purity; bold, expressive and invariably original.
