Artist Interview

I also have fire eating skills.

Please introduce yourself to those unfamiliar with your DJ life.

I've been playing out live now for 2.5 years. I also have fire eating skills. I play out with the hope of lifting people up and wanting everyone to raise their vibrations and make people smile. I have residency in the secret garden in Newquay every Sunday for a funday through the summer. Namaste nights in the Dead Famous bar, Newquay every six weeks for the late nighters. And Sun Downer sessions at the Great Western Hotel, Newquay on Saturdays.

...power house.

Describe your DJ sound.

I describe my sound as euphoric power house. When doing clubs but I do play more chilled Balearic vibes too with a soulful sound! I love sassy vocals!

What is your view on how the live music and nightlife scene has been shaped since the Covid lockdowns?

I feel people lifestyles have changed and late nightlife is less of a thing these days... people prefer festivals and day party's and then you have a balanced life. Music is always going to have its place in the world... definitely medicinal to many people.

Talk us through your podcast mix track selection.

This playlist starts off vocals soulful, funky... and then builds up .. it's a mixture because I have many different styles. I like to tantalise people eardrums with fresh sound! I try to tune into my crowd and venue.
