How did you venture into the world of DJing?

I’ve always been surrounded with music from a very young age. Growing up, I learned many different musical instruments and attended a lot of concerts. The idea of becoming a DJ came to me a few years ago after seeing a live performance by one of my favourite DJs. I instantly fell in love with the art of mixing. From then, I picked up two CDs, practiced for countless amounts of hours, constantly pushing myself to learn different styles and genres. Few years later and here I am.

In which club and country have you met the most expressive and up for it crowd?

The crowd in Hong Kong has always been amazing to me. Boujis is beautiful. Bungalow is crazy. I recently played at Atlantis in Singapore and 2000 people stood in front of me with their hands in the air for the whole of my set.

I cannot wait to see what the lovely people of Nepal have in store for me!

Bring your dancing shoes people!

Who are the artists producers and singers that you would like to collaborate with?

To be able to work with Above and Beyond would be amazing. They are true to their roots and are musically talented with different instruments. Other artists include Emma Hewitt because she has the most beautiful voice. Paul Van Dyk for being the legend he is and Discotech for their amazing production skills.

Tells us about your music, what genre do you play?

Trance is my first love. It’s the genre that first got me into all this. With listening and playing Trance, I then got into House music. Ranging from House, Deep, Vocal House, going up into the more commercial sound with Progressive House. I then wanted to challenge myself with a completely different style and got into Hip Hop, R&B, Trap, focusing on becoming a true Open Format DJ.

A track you are proud to call your innovation...

Im such a perfectionist that I haven’t yet released any of my personal productions (WATCH THIS SPACE!) I do have a few edits that I have made and I usually open and or close my sets with those. You will have to come to one of my shows to see for yourself!

Tells us about few tracks you will be playing at your event in Nepal?

I’m bringing you styles and genre’s to take you on a musical journey to get you dancing through the night. Expect big sounds, heavy beats, and melodic baselines with lots of energy!

What do you do in your free time?

I enjoy going for walks, listening to music of course, going to the gym, travel. I love going to the beach. Family is really important to me too, so I love spending time with them whenever I can.
