It all started with a holidays in northern Spain on the summer of 2000. Until there the favourite genres of Pete Pizarro styles were rock and hip hop, genres that still enjoys. But after attending several bars and nightclubs and see in action the best djs like Carl Cox, Dj Vibe, Joey Negro, among others, Pete Pizarro felt that he could step to the side of the booth and deliver the same feeling that was originated by the 4/4 beats of house music. Quickly he developed a passion for the style and as himself says: "I consider myself a House music scholar."

After some years practicing djing as hobby, spinning mainly deep/soulful house music and starting producing his first beats, all these factors resulted almost in a obligation to become a professional dj because he realized that the addiction to this area was too strong to simply abdicate from it.

In 2004 he produced his firt song "Attention" that completely overcame his expectations, registering 3000 downloads in only one month from nov2004 to dec2004, the admiration was even bigger as he only had post the song online merely for fun.

In 2005 only aged 18 he debuts, professionally, at the bar "Barcas" in "Cais de Gaia", surprising those who believed that he was only a beginner with no talent.

Since then Pete Pizarro attended Danceplanet's dj school, because he thinks that we are always learning, and has been playing at several venues including: Triplex (Porto), Glamour (Viana do Castelo), Open (Sert) Quando Quando (Porto), Caff Lusitano (Porto) Satisfashion (Lea da Palmeira), Homem do Leme (Porto), XIS (Porto), Nova Era Caffe (Gaia), Bogani (Gaia), Feira da Msica (Porto) etc. etc. Also he already had the opportunity to play alongside some of the best djs at international level and national level: Dennis Ferrer, United Friends, Vito d 'Santi, among others.

The next few years for Pete Pizarro, seem extremely promising, joining the hard work to his talent, sure his destiny will be alongside success.

Several surprises are still reserved by this young dj/producer, both in djing, as in production.
