Please tell our readers who you are and what you do?
I'm a french music producer of 20 years old.
I make Electronic Dance Music for almost 4 years now. I started music at the age of 15 with djing and then, later on, I decided that I wanted to produce my own records as my idols, Skrillex, Hardwell & Daft Punk.
How would you describe your influences and how have they changed over the years?
As a French, I'm really inspired by David Guetta & Daft Punk, or even DJ Snake, Tchami & Mercer, Busy P and all the underground french scene.
At the beginning, I was only producing EDM, instrumental tracks. My goal was to put vocals on these tracks to take them to the next level. Then with the years, I started to enjoy Hip-Hop music & Rap. All the styles of music I was listening inspire me. Moreover, I have some Rock influences too because when I was younger, I used to listen to Rock'n Roll. Now my goal is to produce every style of music, that I enjoy listening, in my own way and this includes writing lyrics.
What´s new right now?
I released only 4 original tracks(Dance, Feeling Free, Pool Party & Lost). 2 remixes of my songs have been made, one for Dance and another for Lost. My goal at the moment is to keep making music and to learn new things and upgrade my technics & skills, whether for mixing, mastering, producing process or even writing lyrics. I'm also building my universe slowly around my music and my personality.
I'm working on a new song featuring a singer. It will be my first vocal song, it's a house record that matches summer expectations.
The funny thing is that I asked on Twitter what lyrics my fans would like to hear in a summer song, and I took all the words sent to build the lyrics around.
