For those who don’t know, give us a little insight into what you’re best known for?

People may know me for a couple of my tunes that were released on Spinnin’, including ‘Throw Yo Body’ and ‘Bitch Boyz’. More recently I have been known for the unique sound I’m bringing to bass house, I’m definitely working on bringing Fidget House back!

How long have you been DJ’ing and how did you get into that?

8 years, I kind of just did it because it was the cool thing to do and I’m not the most fun person to talk to at parties, so this was my way of avoiding socialising. It wasn’t until I saw Trentino’s Red Bull set that I actually started practising and getting good.

 

What’s your favourite thing about the music industry?

It’s all so inclusive. Doesn’t matter anymore what you look like or anything; if you make bangers you’ll have your spot.

 

Finally, where can we go to check out more of your music?

ALL STREAMING PLATFORMS! I’m most active on Soundcloud and Spotify if you need to get a hold of me.
