RASMA Medina Santillanes

RASMA Medina Santillanes was born in Guasave, Sinaloa, Mexico on April 23rd, 1983. From a very early age, she showed great talents for music and a great fascination for videogames and anime, which led her to study music autodidactically. At age 13, she took piano lessons at UAS Music School. Several months later, influenced notoriusly by Michael Jackson, she composed her first song, and since then she keeps on composing.

On may 2000, She joins the Sinaloa Opera Choir, and as she appears in several stagings (operas, concerts, musical comedies, etc.), she learns to sing and act. The influence of the opera leads her to make incursions to classic music composition and to rework some videogame themes, which improves notoriously her music-composition skills.

After making some vocal experiments, she discovers her singing voice. So, she and her sister Almendra gather for the first time as a duo, and on December 2002 during a Cristmas Festival, they surprise the crowd singing a cover of the japanese song 3 Primary Colors, a theme for the anime Digimon Tamers.

Later, in the spring of 2004, Rasma debuts as a singer-songwriter in a music festival of UAS Computer Science School (she was studying for such degree, back then), where she swiftly became famous for her release What I Feel.

Once consolidated as a singer and songwriter, she didn't hesitate make more appearances in many other local events, where she got a great fame.

But her fascination for anime and videogames was so great that in the summer of 2005 she made her first performance at an anime convention. And so, at Sugoi Festa 2, she sings Catch you-Catch me from Card Captor Sakura, getting a great fame among the otaku crowd.

Later on November 2006, RASMA receives the great ovation by her great performance singing just like Freddie Mercury during a Tribute to Queen, along with the band Aleph Liverpool, the Sinaloa Opera Choir, and the Sinaloa de Las Artes Symphonic Orchestra. It was such a resounding success that this show was staged again in November of the next year.

On september 2007, RASMA displays her unique scenic talents during the staging of a zarzuela titled La Verbena de la Paloma, where she is greatly applauded for playing the role of Aunt Antonia.

On January 2008, she leaves the opera choir and makes incursions to electronic music production along with Almendra, and so, on November of thar same year, both of them were consolidated as an electronic music duo which they named Starstorm.

Since then, Rasma's career has made progress at same than Almendra's. Together they've had great achievements as Starstorm and as GENESIS.
