Biography:

Davidson Ospina was born and raised in Queens, New York. Taking influence from a wide variety of music, he created his own style and began playing keyboards, DJing and writing songs in the early 90’s.

He quickly acquired a position at indie label Digital Dungeon, where he became Director of Promotions, A & R and of course, in-house Producer for the label. Cue a string of acclaimed releases including in 1996 his first hit El Cantor “Toma” on Digital Dungeon Records. This record became a Latin-House club anthem across the world for months and peaked #9 on the Billboard Dance charts for several weeks.

This success opened the world up to Davidson, and demand for remix and production projects with major and indie labels blossomed. Atlantic Records took a keen interest, and hired him for his first major label remix, The Gipsy Kings “La Rumba de Nicolas”. NYC mixshow DJs and clubjocks were hip to his fresh, innovative and versatile latin-house style, and more requests came flooding in. A remixed of Albita “Valga El Brillo..” on Epic Records and The Outhere Brothers “La La La Hey Hey” on Aureus Records were just a few. Later that year, the production of The Chronicles EP “Strings” on Henry Street Records a more underground house style, brought on more success.

This record was a big hit domestically and even bigger overseas in the underground music scene & licensed to AM:PM/UK. Now having a name for himself, as a diverse remixer/producer & keyboard player, much of his time has been spent on a wide range of projects including remixes for Backstreet Boys “All I Have To Give” on Jive/Zomba Records, Britney Spears “Baby, One More Time” on Jive/Zomba, Enrique Iglesias “Bailamos” on Interscope Records, plus many more.

And on top of his unbelievable production ability, the keyboard skills have landed him the opportunity to play for Grammy Winner David Morales remix productions. Davidson continues to work on his full-time passion, producing and writing original work as well as remixing, plus the recent launch of his own record label SPINA which is bound to garner much attention, featuring many of his own productions.
