Please introduce yourself to those unfamiliar with your DJ life.

I'm Plymouth based and have been resident DJ for the Southwest's biggest house and techno brand Casa for the last 6 years. My residency with Casa has seen me play on several boat parties in Ibiza and alongside some of the biggest names in the music industry including Pete Tong, Patrick Topping and most recently Eatseverything. Over the last few years I have started to learn about production and have a couple of tracks set to be released in the near future.

Describe your DJ sound.

I like to experiment in my mixes to keep elements of change throughout. I play a varity of minimal, house, tech house, bass house and techno. Full drive of funky underground bass grooves with catchy vocals, big builds and drops.
