Hybrid – EDM/psy
How did it all start for you?
I love music since I was born, I was started to knock on tables haha then I moved to drums, playing at instruments and eventually wanted to create my own music, this is when I moved into making music and doing productions
Which three artists would you say made you want to create your own music?
There is so many that have inspired me during my life, if I need to choose the Top 3, I’d say Prodigy, Daft Punk and David Guetta
What is your go-to gear/equipment when creating?
I’m addicted to Cubase, love the workflow of the shortcuts, my favourite synth is Moog Voyager
What are some of your key influences in your music? Whether it be the sound created by others, imagery, films or any kind of art form.
I think what catches my ears always is the composition and production level, it can be either in films or in other types of genres/music. Things that sound timeless.
What is one sub-genre you think doesn’t get the attention it deserves?
Psytrance
Any new or upcoming artists on your radar?
SWACQ – his sound is super fresh and the content great
What single night out has been the most memorable for you? As a performer? As an attendee?
Tiesto – Adagio For Strings, I won’t forget the first time I’ve heard it as a kid in a party
What can we expect from you in the near future? Any upcoming projects or gigs in the pipeline that you would like to tell us about?
I’m heading to Japan this weekend, it’s special for me because I’m going to represent a new style that I’ve been working on for a long time (Hybrid genre)
Famous last words?
Working on a big project with Revealed Recordings, can’t wait for your show!
