About Me

Always had a special interest for electronic music and started to buy records at young age. Kraftwerk, yello, art of noise where some of my first long players. Fell in love with the dj concept the first time had contact with the phenomena and started spinning at age 14. Discovered dance clubs a little later and i was totally fascinated. Ten years of residencies in clubs, mini-clubs, danceterias and matines, playing for different crowds made me explore different styles of music for dancing. Spent a few years in the vinyl distribution market, some of them as the owner of a record shop. Had my own radio show for 4 years, and collaborated on other radio programs. Now producing and presenting with one friend a new radio show in local radio station. My dj sets reveal my influences: pop, electro, disco, dfa, techno, trip to berlin, warp, flatmate tunes, brother instruments, computer games, daily life! I melt them all inside and when I have the freedom to expand i create a personal and exciting sequence mixing records I like, or an edited preferred version of those records, mixing melody and rhythm, analog and digital, vocal and vocoder. Had one experience in the Red Bull Music Academy in Rome. My dj activity gives me the opportunity to do some travelling, and i´m very happy for having achieved that. Performed north to south of Portugal, Spain, England, Germany, Italy, Turquey, Holand, Iceland meeting really nice people:)
