1. Can you tell us about your journey as a DJ? How did you get started in this industry? My journey started in music production, the DJing really stemmed from that. As a young teenager I found dance music and started messing around making it. I met my girlfriend (now wife) who played some of my tracks to her brother James G who was in the industry. Through that I got my first few releases and the rest is history.

2.

What do you think sets you

apart from other DJs in the industry?

It’s getting tougher and tougher to stand out in the dance music industry because the barrier to entry is much lower. It’s not something that really sets me apart necessarily, but I think my production is the main differentiating factor. A lot of people find me through the music I make, which in the current climate is super important.
