Please tell our readers who you are and what you do?
I'm a 21 years old Producer and DJ from Viña del Mar, Chile. Like many other artists, i've been into music since I was 5 years old playing the guitar. I dreamed with being in a rock band but I noticed that being able to create whatever you want and all by yourself was way more dynamic and fun for me, so I got into electronic music in 2010 when a friend showed me some tracks. I loved them. I started producing the same year, experimenting with Dubstep and House. I began having releases in labels like Digital Empire Records, Bassive Recordings and today I'm working with White Wall Artist Collective. After some time and winning 'Silvertongue' Remix contest hosted by SKIO Music I decided to change my production style, but actually i'm a fan of good music, everything that sounds right and has real music in it is perfect for me. I think music is made to express our feelings and get ou the best of us!
How would you describe your influences and how have they changed over the years?
When I got into electronic music the first track I heard was Rock N Roll by Skrillex. I was amazed. It was a whole new world that made me feel things i've never experienced before. With Skrillex I got into dubstep like many other people. Then, I began to search for more musicians. I was in love with Skrillex, Nero, Knife Party, Flux Pavilion… I still love them all! The I began to get into EDM.

For the last to years, I've been into Future Bass, Future House, Down-tempo and Mid-tempo music. I think I could say SeeB has been one of the most important artists I've learned from by just listeningto for this last to years. It doesn't mean I don't like house and dubstep! I'm in love with all kinds of electronic music, but I really enjoy the kind of feeling that these new genres give to me. They are actually really trendy, but that doesn't mean we have to hate it!

What´s new right now?
I'm trying to give people the most amount of good music as posible. I don't produce a lot of tracks because I think each one must me unique. Me and White Wall crew are trying to deliver a new perception of excellent music to the people, so we are focused in releasing new songs that show who we are like artists. In my Spotify profile you guys can find out what we are working at: huge releases and perfect music selections.

What has been your biggest challenge right now? Have you been able to overcome that challenge? If so, how?
people where I live don't actually listen too much electronic music, excepting tech house. They like reggaeton and latin genres, but I'm kinda "alone" here tryin to work with people from other countries, so I don't have huge incomes and my fanbase is hard to reach and to make it grow
