Q:How did you first get into electronic music?

I grew up in a musical household – my dad was always playing classic rock and my mom loved disco. When I was about 15, my older cousin took me to my first warehouse party in Brooklyn. That night changed everything for me. The energy, the community, the way the music moved people – I was hooked instantly.

Q:Your sound has evolved a lot over the years. How would you describe your current style?

I'd say it's a fusion of deep melodic techno with progressive house elements. I love building atmospheric layers that create an emotional journey, but I always keep a solid, driving rhythm as the foundation. Lately, I've been incorporating more organic samples too – field recordings from my travels, found sounds that have interesting textures. I'm always looking for that perfect balance between the dance floor energy and a more introspective listening experience.

Q:What's your production setup like?

I keep it pretty minimal actually, which sometimes surprises people. I have a small home studio with a few key analog pieces – a Moog Sub 37 that I absolutely love, a Dave Smith Prophet, and some vintage drum machines. But honestly, a lot of my work happens in the box. I'm a big believer that limitations foster creativity, so I try not to get too caught up in having every piece of gear. It's more about really knowing your tools inside and out.

Q:You've played all over the world. Any favorite venues or crowds?

That's always such a tough question! Berlin will always have a special place in my heart – the crowd there is so educated about the music and they're there for the full journey, not just big drops or popular tracks. But I also love playing in South America, especially Argentina. The energy there is unmatched; people are so passionate. I played a sunrise set in Buenos Aires last year that was pure magic – one of those moments where everything just clicked perfectly.

Q:What's next for you?

I've got a new EP coming out next month on Innervisions, which I'm really excited about. It's a bit of a departure for me, more dreamy and ambient-influenced than my usual stuff. And I'm working on a live audio-visual show that will debut at the end of the year – something more immersive that tells a story beyond just the music. I want to create experiences that stay with people long after the night ends.
