Biography

He was raised by his grandparents that would later help him achieve his greatest dream, to be the best producer in the industry. He began as a musician in the 1st Baptist Church in Loiza, Puerto Rico as a percussionist. It is then that his mother makes him learn the piano since the church’s choir was missing a pianist. He already dominated the bongo, drums, and the congas. Although he was reluctant to learn the piano, it was thanks to this great instrument that he stood out among all other producers.

Immediately he signs a contract with the record company VI Music to record the voices of all of their artists. His made his first musical track for Daddy Yankee y Nicky Jam for the album “Las Gargolas”. Upon listening to it the singers did not believe it had been made by Eliel and thought it was a track taken out of a movie soundtrack. It is this special musical touch in his tracks in which he includes different rhythms and musical instruments that make his tracks something hard to believe. He has created more musical tracks that are the representation of the Reggeaton scene in Puerto Rico; these are “Donde estan las Gatas” in the voice of Daddy Yankee, “Salen Inquietas” by Magnate y Valentino, and “Dile” and “Vuelve” in the voice of Don Omar. In the year 2002 he worked on the albums “La Reconquista” of the former duo Hector y Tito, a compilation of various artists “Mas Flow 1”, and on “Don Omar: The Last Don (album).” With his success in the Reggeaton world, his colleagues tried to give him an artistic name, but the name Eliel was already established. It is because of his shy nature that he becomes known as “the one that speaks with his hands” and has been consecrated as the genius behind the music that is taking over. Eliel has produced hit songs and converted them into hits.for reggeaton stars such as Daddy Yankee, Don Omar, Hector “El Father”, Magnate y Valentino, amongst others. Eliel recently worked with Don Omar’s new recording production, “King of Kings (album)”, and in the production “Reggeaton Confessions” where exponents of different musical genres are uniting with Reggeaton.

“There was a lot of ignoring going on when I knocked on people’s doors so they could listen to my work. But with a lot of patience and hard work I have accomplished all of my dreams.”
