Desde la infancia, Javier Pitera sabía que estaba destinado a una vocación musical. Más tarde estudió piano, composición, arreglos y armonía en el Instituto de Música y Tecnología de Madrid, centrándose en el órgano de Hammond como su instrumento de elección. En 1995, su carrera profesional comenzó con la composición de música para radio, televisión y publicidad. Su primer álbum, "Un verano sin fin", lanzado en 2007, recibió buenas críticas. 


En 2009, se lanzó su álbum "Two months inside the fashion world". Potente, íntimo, sexy y elegante, este álbum combina todas sus influencias musicales: funk, soul, jazz, bossa y pop, y el resultado es una experiencia a la vez sensual y conmovedora. 

En 2012 lanza el álbum "Intense", una nueva colección de canciones cuyos estilos difieren pero en la que el órgano de Hammond y las suaves raíces del jazz proporcionan un hilo de conexión. 

Ahora en 2019 presenta su nuevo álbum "Just being by your side", con el que ha querido
retrotraernos a los sonidos de los orígenes del smooth jazz, un estilo que 
empieza a tener historia y al que ha querido mirar desde la perspectiva del tiempo. Este es un disco lleno de canciones sensuales y elegantes con sonidos sencillos y directos capaces de crear ambientes sofisticados y muy emocionales.Este álbum supone una evolución respecto a sus anteriores trabajos, buscando en la esencia del estilo nuevos futuros caminos.

Since childhood, Javier Pitera knew that he was destined for a musical vocation. He later studied piano, composition, arrangements and harmony at the Institute of Music and Technology in Madrid, focusing on Hammond's organ as his instrument of choice. 

In 1995, his professional career began with the composition of music for radio, television and advertising. His first album, "Un Verano sin Fin", released in 2007, received good reviews. 


In 2009, his album "Two months inside the fashion world" was released. Powerful, intimate, sexy and elegant, this album combines all its musical influences: funk, soul, jazz, bossa and pop, and the result is an experience both sensual and touching.

 In 2012 he released the album "Intense", a new collection of songs whose styles differ but in which the Hammond organ and the soft roots of jazz provide a connecting thread. 

Now in 2019 he presents his new album "Just being by your side", with which he wanted to go back to the sounds of the origins of smooth jazz, a style that begins to have history and that he wanted to look at from the perspective of time. This is an album full of sensual and elegant songs with simple and direct sounds capable of creating sophisticated and very emotional environments. This album is an evolution compared to his previous works, looking for new paths in the essence of style.
