How would you describe your influences and how have they changed over the years?
Well, I started listening to House music at a tender age, when I was around 13 years old and I got influenced and Introduced to Djing by my elder brother, BNRD, who was a house music DJ back then when he taught me how to DJ with Virtual DJ but now he's a Hip-Hop Producer and a rapper. My influences changed a bit for I used to concentrate mainly in the Big room Genre when I started but now I'm more of a Progressive house , Deep House and Afro House lover . And also, I no longer use Virtual Dj but use more of CDJs and Traktor PRO
Yes, my taste changed over the years for I rarely play big room tracks on my podcasts and live sets but rather mix up between Progressive House, Deep House and Afro House
What´s new right now?
Right now, I'm working on couple of new releases , developing my upcoming events planning/organising company , working with a couple of live gigs in the country and outside the country, bringing back my podcast installments(Party Lov3 Podcast) and also to start up a record label to bring up upcoming talent that haven't been given a chance in the dance scene in our country but not only Dance music but other genres as well.
