Michael Brun spent his childhood on the sun-drenched Caribbean island of Haiti. Born to a Haitian father and Guyanese mother who valued the love of music, his musical background stretched from the percussion-heavy Rara and Afro-groove music of his native Haiti, to disco and synth pop. He has played guitar and piano from a young age, and took up DJing and EDM production as a hobby at 16 while on the path for a career in medicine. After four years of hard work and experimentation, 20 year old Michael has been fortunate enough to receive continuous support from some of the most well-respected names in the industry, including Axwell, Kaskade, Dirty South, Sebastian Ingrosso, Tiesto, Avicii, Hardwell, Ferry Corsten, Alesso, Otto Knows, and Afrojack. His releases on Phazing Records garnered critical acclaim in 2012, with 'Rise', 'Burn Forever' and 'Synergy' all charting in the Beatport Progressive top 15, while 'Rift', his collaboration with label head and mentor Dirty South, sat at the top 3 Beatport overall charts for almost 2 weeks. He has also shared the stage with such notable names as Avicii, Dirty South, Tommy Trash, Thomas Gold, An21 and Max Vangeli and Nadia Ali. With the success of his music endeavors while a pre-med student at Davidson College, Michael, with the support of advisors and faculty at the college, decided to take a one year leave of absence at the end of his sophomore year in 2012 to pursue his music career. Now officially signed to It's Better Management and William Morris Endeavour, a forthcoming EP on Phazing due for release shortly before WMC, and exciting dates as both a solo artist and a member of the Phazing Records family, Michael is set for a breakout year in 2013.
