Leandro
Dutra AKA Lea-D, was born in 1981, in Baradero, (Buenos
Aires). His passion for music began at an early age, influenced
by Pop and the rhythms of Early 80's, and later, by the sonic
rock and pop style of great artists such as Soda Stereo, Babasónicos,
Gustavo Ceráti, U2 and Depeche Mode.
At the age of 13, he discovers new sounds coming from Europe and
United States. Bands and producers like Chemical Brothers, Underworld,
Kraftwerk, Sasha, John Digweed and Orbital life-marked his destiny
as a musician.
In 1999 he decides to move to the other side of music and began
composing it, aided by different computer softwares, without any
previous music-theory guide, starting a self-taught game.
Later on 2002 he starts playing keyboards and synths in a rock/pop
band called Fanny Ardant. They played at many different bars,
festivals and events in Argentina. As the time went by, he has
been invited to integrate different rock and pop groups. As well,
he decides to musicalize events and concerts of his band creating
different atmospheres with his music before the other members
of the band go up to stage.
In 2003 with Diego Romero, Fanny Ardant's main guitar player,
creates a recording studio and produces artists including from
punk to folklore.
A year after, with the mind cleared and the eyes (ears) opened,
he enters in the Musical Producer career at the EMBA (Escuela
de Música de Buenos Aires)
With lots of production works in his possession that belongs to
ambient and house as well as progressive, trance and more, but
it's on 2004 that he decides to lunch his career as a professional
DJ, playing in the beginning at private parties and, after a few
months, as the Resident DJ of "La Sala",
a local bar, where he gets a great experience about how to manage
a crowd in a dancefloor.
The year 2007 finds him playing in different bars, clubs and events
of Buenos Aires and Argentina. His sets can listen in most of
the importan radios like Frisky radio and Proton radio also in
the best Argentinean radios like Ksk radio
His productions was supported by many djs around the globe and
charted in the most important rankings too. His tracks was play
