His father’s love of music also infected him in his early years. During the primary school years he learnt playing on synthesizer. Then in the age of 15 he got his first computer, but in the beginning he only played onto that, but later he discovered the other possibilities of the computer. In the years about 1996/1997 between the walls of the legendary discotheque Flört, he got to know the music which was embedded his memory forever (Quench-Dreams). He wrote his first musics in the way of Fast Tracker, which wasn’t an acceptable quality at the time.

In 2000 he wrote the song “Acros

Rod B. & Alvaro Garfunk bring you the "Miami Underground Movement."At an early age in life, music and broadcast took much interest in the mind of Alvaro Garcia. By 1995, the urge to play vinyl combined with a used pair of Technics 1200's took Alvaro by storm. After spinning at many parties and gatherings, he made his way on a local pirate radio station. With this experience he later ventured on to a full studio production at Florida International University. He then attained his own radio show called "The Friday Pulse" which took listeners on a 2 hour journey each week, successfully spanning 4 years. This is where the progressive techno style of “Garfunk? came about. From then on he stretched beyond the airwaves into podcasts, internet streams, and playing live at venues in Miami, Orlando, and Rio de Janeiro. Alvaro graduated F.I.U. with a B.B.A. only to rediscover his passion for music. To follow his calling, he attended SAE, the School for Audio Engineering. Graduating from SAE Miami proved to be a

Rod B. & Alvaro Garfunk bring you the premiere of "Miami Underground Movement." First off, let us skip the obvious and tiresome formalities that become associated with a traditional DJ biography….Glenn Morrison lives and breathes electronic music. For the last five years he has been immersed in it. As a child he was heavily into the classical piano receiving every prestigious honor, including ARCT by the age of 14, furthermore playing competitively on a national scale. The electronica bug hit him soon after and between studies began to consume his life. He worked for several years at Release Records which aided his career in many ways. While at Release he also assisted other labels with A&R: Twisted Frequency (UK), Babylon Records (France) and DK Records (Holland). Last year he decided to follow his own direction, tired of clichés that labels so readily fall into he set up Morrison Recordings.
