We explore the thoughts of artists and music sharing. In today's digital age, discovering new music has become more accessible than ever due to online platforms like Spotify, SoundCloud, and download services such as Beatport. While traditional methods of exploring music, such as visiting record shops, have diminished in popularity, the process of musical exploration remains significant and enriching, especially when one encounters a standout track. For performing artists, the quest for fresh music is a continuous endeavor, often regarded as equally important as the performance itself. This raises an interesting question: is it appropriate for artists to keep the details of their music sources confidential? This topic invites further discussion from some of the South West DJs and producers on the nature of music discovery in the modern landscape.

I like to keep the blends tight...

Hi, Please introduce yourself to those unfamiliar with your DJ life.

My unique style of DJing doesn’t evolve around a particular or specific genre, but a variety of styles which I like to venture out to and be involved in. Whatever I’m mixing, I like to keep the blends tight and keep my audience entertained, it’s like taking you on a journey. I’ve got a broad knowledge of music, and always strive to improve it, allowing me to create diverse content that my viewers and listeners will enjoy. I always give my best efforts into every set, making sure I deliver quality. House, Techno, Trance, Drum and Bass are the genres I like to put my time into. However, I am always open to new sounds and obtain new ideas for music, advice, recommendations and general input from others I take onboard.
