Miles Medina was born in the Bay Area and started competing in turntable battles at the age of 14. Over the years, Miles has continued to refine his craft, honing his skills with intention and dedication. His eclectic personality is translated into colorful sets with music that spans across genres and time. When Miles is on the decks, he immerses himself in the music and the room. Building the pulse of the party, he experiments with lyrics and sounds- pushing the envelope of DJing by combining technical skill and creativity. His video "Put Some Miles On It" went viral and earned him a finalist spot in A-trak's 1st Annual 2017 Goldie Awards, a global DJ battle with finalists from all over the world. At the Goldie Awards, Miles set himself apart from the competition with his depth of knowledge on technique, creativity, and style. Out of over 300 submissions and eight multicultural competitors, his track selection and skillset amazed the judges and won him the title of 1st Annual 2017 Goldie Award Winning DJ. Miles Medina’s innate musicality has allowed him the opportunity to perform alongside music heavyweights that include Jazzy Jeff, Just Blaze, Diplo, A-Trak, Lunice, and Esta. As of recent, Miles has been spending time producing music as well as expanding his creativity in DJing. His innovative work can be heard in his remixes and edits that have been supported by Diplo and GTA. And while his progress can be viewed in his innovative turntable videos, all eyes are watching Miles Medina’s journey to greatness.
