Born in a small town near Quebec City, I started playing rock n roll on drums at a young age in my parent's basement. At 16, out of shear curiosity, I came accross old school hip-hop and was soon playing that sound on the turntables. I then founded my own mobile DJ Company with a mission to bring new sound to youngsters in his community and get money to buy vinyls.It was while mixing Guns n Roses with Afrika Bambaattaa that I discovered Detroit's "style" house music. It was the avenue to be forever hooked on minimal music and hard house! Later on, when I moved to Montreal, Ritchie Hawtin as well as artists from Cologne's greatest labels filled my every evening and opened my eyes to a new world of possibilities musically: I was sparked by the idea of down pitching a hard and damped techno bassline to the point it clearly sounds like deep progressive house music.Nowadays, as co-founder of Often Gruven recordings, I produce and promote progressive electronic dance music inspired by artists like Sven Vath, Sasha, James Holden and his above mentioned favourites of course.
