     Bombay is proud to be releasing Montreal artist Miguel Graτa's
     second album, Monkey Mass, which represents a different direction
     to the "Smokin" Graτa sound. While his first album Shining Stars
     was in many ways inspired by nature, with tribal drums and live
     instruments creating a lush, organic vibe, Monkey Mass takes its
     inspiration from other sources. The city, the human jungle, the
     ceremony of connectivity. Deep house meets electro-ish sounds and
     serious nu-wave beats. This is the sound of future chill, but feel
     free to dance to it.

     Montreal deep house producer Miguel Graτa (pronounced "grass-a")
     has been turning heads for years with his unique production style
     and beautiful songs. His new album on Bombay Records, entitled
     "Monkey Mass," is scheduled to drop in April 2002, and a 12" single
     from the album, "The Wellbeing," is already drawing rave reviews
     from industry insiders lucky enough to get a white label. But
     Miguel Graτa is no overnight successà
     As a choir boy in his native Portugal, Miguel discovered his
     musical talent at an early age and explored it by studying the
     piano and developing his vocal skills. His passion for music has
     turned into a lifelong pursuit. Whether producing, remixing, DJing
     or selling records, Miguel has been involved with the recording
     industry for over a decade.

     After playing in a band in the 80s Miguel began producing his own
     material. In 1991, at the age of 20, he produced his first club
     hit: "There 4 U" by M.G. Feat. Stephenson. It was awarded the
     supreme sign of recognition from the scene at the time by being
     bootlegged in New York City. "There 4 U" charted heavily in the
     U.K., played on regular rotation on Kiss 100 FM, and grabbed the
     attention of legendary Garage DJ/Producer Robert Ouimet, who became
     his production partner.

     Over the next 6 years Graτa and Ouimet shared a studio and ran
     Front Records. They released many internationally-acclaimed house
     tracks together and developed a solid following for their Red Light
     moniker. Highlights of their prolific discography include "Who
     Needs Enemies," "The Dance," "Keep it Open" and "Thankful" Feat.
     David Gordon, all on Hi-Bias Records. "Thankful" went on to win the
     1994 JUNO Award (the Canadian national music award) for best
     original dance recording.

     Miguel recorded under several other aliases before releasing his
     first track under his own name, "Up to the Sky" on Ferox in 1997.
     He also remixed "Voices in my Mind" by Masters at Work (Da Grooves
     Productions) and Jestofunk's classic "Can We Live." Many of his
     tracks have been licensed around the world, including "Rollin'" to
     a Radio Nova compilation, "Realize" to Amalgamations of Sound, and
     "Latin Soul" (Guidance) to a variety of compilations. Recently,
     Miguel finished a remix of Llorca's "Indigo Blues" for the
     respected label F-Com, and his remix of KemeticJust's "See the
     Light" (Bombay) was a deep hit at the 2001 WMC in Miami. As well,
     his spooky-dub remix of Roy Davis Jr.'s "Watch Them Come" made
     heads all over the whole say, "What the?"àand turn up the volume.

     Miguel's first full-length album with Bombay, "Shining Stars"
     (released summer 2000), was a collaboration with various Montreal
     musicians and vocalists and "a reflection of everything I've
     realized, things that I have figured out and come to peace with,"
     says Miguel. A garage/house classic from start to finish, three
     12-inch singles were released from the album on Bombay, including
     the international club hit "Pineapple" and "Speak My Mind," which
     features a Johnny Fiasco remix. A video for "Speak My Mind" was
     produced, shot in 35mm at Montreal's infamous Stereo afterhours,
     and the track found a home on dance floors and charts around the
     world.s

     Miguel is constantly touring as a DJ in North America and Europe -
     he played for Respect is Burning in Lausanne, a Radio Nova showcase
     in Paris, and other club dates. In April 2002 he will embark on his
     first tour of Australia and New Zealand, following which he will
     tour North America and Europe in support of "Monkey Mass."
