Overview
I provide smooth, vibe-driven DJ sets centered around underground house music — from deep minimal grooves to worldly, chill melodies. My style consists of artists like Josh Baker, DNXB, Chris Stussy, Rossi., Max Dean, and Luke Dean. Also at times for a change of pace I’ll slow things down with with the atmospheric, emotional sounds of Hraach, Bedouin, Cansen, and Thomaz (Mex).
Whether it’s a laid-back coffee bar set or a deeper club session, my sound is always tailored to elevate the vibe of the room without overpowering it.

About
I’m someone who’s always had a deep love for house music; it’s been a part of my life for about 9 years now. I didn’t start DJing right away, but when I was around 16, I began messing around with it and slowly started learning the ropes. About 4 years ago, I made the decision to really take it seriously, diving deeper into mixing, curating sets, and shaping my own sound.
Over the years, I’ve done pop-up sets just for fun, including a few on the beach — just me, the music, and good vibes with whoever was around. For me, DJing is more than just mixing tracks — it’s about creating moments and moving people with sound.
Outside of music, I’m a family man. My loved ones mean everything to me, and I do my best to balance my passion for music with being present for them. House music has always been a part of my journey, and now I’m ready to share more of it with the world.

Influences and inspiration
My sound is shaped by a mix of modern house innovators and timeless groove specialists. Artists like Luuk Van Dijk, Chris Stussy, Josh Baker, and Rossi. have heavily influenced my style — blending deep, minimal, and techy rhythms with dancefloor energy. I also draw inspiration from the boundary-pushing creativity of Across Boundaries and the high-intensity performance style of Marco Carola and Prospa. Their ability to captivate a crowd while staying true to their sound continues to motivate me as I develop my own unique identity behind the decks.
