🎶 Artistic Vision & Sound

David captivates with smooth, melodic vocals laid over high-energy, synth-infused productions — a hybrid that keeps one foot in the familiar while leaning boldly into the new. His music is danceable, emotional, and adventurous.

In collaboration with Valentino Maltos, a multi-Grammy-winning saxophonist and producer, David is crafting something truly original. Valentino’s credits span jazz, R&B, and Latin music, and his mission is combining analog warmth with modern techniques to create soundscapes that feel alive and soulful. valentinomusic.com+2valentinomusic.com+2

🚀 Forward Momentum

David, along with Valentino as producer, is preparing a Spring 2026 album that isn’t meant to be just another Tejano record — it’s a bold reimagining of what Tejano can be. Each track aims to expand the genre’s boundaries, weaving in synth textures, assertive percussion, expressive horn lines, and deeply felt narratives.

Their ambition: not just to honor the legacy, but to lead Tejano into a new era of sonic innovation, rooted in tradition yet striving ever forward.
