Artist Interview

I like to keep the blends tight...

Hi, Please introduce yourself to those unfamiliar with your DJ life.

My unique style of DJing doesn’t evolve around a particular or specific genre, but a variety of styles which I like to venture out to and be involved in. Whatever I’m mixing, I like to keep the blends tight and keep my audience entertained, it’s like taking you on a journey. I’ve got a broad knowledge of music, and always strive to improve it, allowing me to create diverse content that my viewers and listeners will enjoy. I always give my best efforts into every set, making sure I deliver quality. House, Techno, Trance, Drum and Bass are the genres I like to put my time into. However, I am always open to new sounds and obtain new ideas for music, advice, recommendations and general input from others I take onboard.
