Born in the 80s in Geneva, Switzerland this multinational (Swiss, British and Australian) DJ/Producer has been at it for quiet a long time, ever since the late 90s where he crafted rough ideas in his parents basement in Melbourne off a borrowed mixer, a second hand MC-303 and a Juno 106. Heavily influenced from the old machine sounds that defined eras in music from cities such as Detroit, Chicago, New York and London.
His musical interests always blurred the lines between House and Techno and into Acid and Breakbeat, the same can be said for the music he collected as the ‘Producer’ progressed into the world of the ‘DJ’. This would lead into the eventual creation of his own record label Hummingbird which would allow him a platform to showcase his own creations and introduce new names together with known ones. As a DJ he has supported artists such as Eric Powell, Brothers’ Vibe, Pier Bucci, Simon Coyle, Il Bosco, John Heckle, Hot Since 82, Stimming, Noir, Livio & Roby, DJ Ladida, Shonky, Placid, Camea, Matthew Styles, Barem, Scott Bradford, Jayse Knipe, Kindimmer and Tobi Neumann.
Hard work matched with dogged determination are what define his music. As a self taught creator the years have proven that consistency will eventually pay dividends with the proof of regular supporters for his music in the likes of Laurent Garnier, LTJ Bukem, Peace Division, DJ Rolando, X-Press 2, Silicone Soul, Vince Watson, Danny Tenaglia, Roy Davis Jr., DJ Sprinkles, DJ Bone, Ian Pooley, Fred P, nd_Baumecker, DVS1, Machine Woman, Colin Dale, Gerd, Marcel Dettmann, Slam, Raresh, Dax J, Marco Faraone, Tintonton Duvante, Passarani, Trevor Rockcliffe, Truncate, Terry Frances, Quarion, Mano Le Tough, Jimpster, Takaaki Itoh, Vincent Neumann, Alexi Delano, Tom Carruthers, Tensal, Hrdvsion, Arnaud Le Texier, De Sluwe Vos as well as radio features for NTS, Beats In Space, KissFM, OpenLab Radio, Subtle Radio, RRFM, Deep Space Radio Detroit and Pulse Radio.
