How would you describe your influences and how have they changed over the years?
My influences always came from great dj's, but it started with radio shows that listened to the end of the 90's and the beginning of the 21st century, since then my taste for electronic music has been increasing!

What was the biggest mistake you made when you started making music and what would be the number one tip you could give to a newcomer musician?
As a producer I do not remember what mistake I might have made, it is likely to have been wrong, we are always learning and trying to evolve, as dj maybe my ego affected in some decisions, I do not know sincerely, the only thing I know is that for everything it is I need a bit of luck, be destined even if we have value, and as I said before, the important thing is not to give up!

What has been your biggest challenge right now? Have you been able to overcome that challenge? If so, how?
My biggest challenge it´s to convince put me on party! The overcoming of this challenge does not only depend on me, it depends on who hires and the will of the people, I usually say that there is a lot of talent, but not everyone can be Cristiano Ronaldo or David Guetta, but the challenge is not to give up, if so one day we can always say in the faces of the persons that we do not stop trying to reach our dreams, even if they have been for brief moments as was my case!
