Artist Interview

...I’m not afraid to play a bit of ‘cheese’ if the crowd is leaning towards it.

Please introduce yourself to those unfamiliar with your DJ sound.

I’ve been playing out since the ripe old age of 9 years old and at a Myriad of event types. For the past 7 years or so I’ve been a resident with Dancership playing soulful, funky and very much vocal house. I like to have fun with my music and I’m not afraid to play a bit of ‘cheese’ if the crowd is leaning towards it.

...all about smiles, happy people and pure enjoyment...

What are your highlights of the past year and what is planned for the future?

I’ve been a little quiet this year due to day job commitments but ADE in Amsterdam is always a highlight for me, it’s great to go there and meet with like minded individuals from newbies over to get themselves out there to huge names in the business. Hangover sauna’s with Saison was an unexpected delight ha!


I played for HedKandi again in April which as always went off, Hedkandi was always a bit influence for me, all about smiles, happy people and pure enjoyment and to be a part of that is amazing. Moving forward it’s ADE as always and supporting the outstanding Dancership with Kings and Queens and the Lido events when possible.

Tell us something positive to inspire future artists.

Do it because you love it, play your own style, do your own thing. It’s taken me 34 years to get where I am and I’ve enjoyed every minute of it. Just learn as you go.

Talk us through your podcast mix track selection.

Playing mainly daytime gigs this year it’s been more chilled so I decided to get in a few tracks that I would love to get out to an ‘after dark’ crowd. Lots of vocals as always.
