About

Welcome to Montecruz Music.
I’m Rafael Montecruz — a singer, songwriter, and music creator based in California. Music isn’t just what I do, it’s who I am.

My songs blend emotion, storytelling, and genre-crossing energy to create sounds that are deeply personal and widely relatable. Whether it’s pop, Latin, or EDM influences, I strive to make music that connects and stays with you long after the last note.

One of my tracks, “Day (Remix),” has garnered over 350,000 streams on Spotify alone, a reflection of the growing community resonating with the heart and honesty behind my work. My latest single, “Someday (Reimagined),” continues that journey with a cinematic, romantic vibe that fuses pop and funk melodies that you can jive with.

Beyond creating music, I also review it. As a passionate listener, I offer honest and thoughtful takes on new releases from other indie and mainstream artists. If you’re an artist looking to get reviewed or a fan searching for fresh sounds, you’re in the right place.

This site is where I share both my own music and my reflections on the music world around me. Thank you for listening, reading, and being a part of the Montecruz journey.
