HISTORY
The Start
I began my music journey playing piano, inspiring early songwriting and leading to a teenage move to the UK, where I fronted a rock band and performed live every weekend. Immersed in music production from a young age, I learned invaluable skills surrounded by my father’s gold and platinum albums for icons like Rob De Nijs, the Guys and Dolls, Demis Roussos and David Hasselhoff.
evolution
As technology advanced, my focus shifted from performing to production, fuelled by tools like the Atari ST, Emagic Logic, and Akai samplers. My style evolved to include R&B, Hip-Hop, Pop, and early house music, opening doors to work with legends like Neneh Cherry and Soul II Soul. Hearing my track on Radio One at 21 remains a defining milestone.
Progressive
From artist collaborations to major label projects, TV ads, film music and a lot of remixes for chart topping artists, I embraced every challenge, later channeling my passion into artist development and launching a production company and label while rediscovering my love for dance.
finally
My journey reflects a dedication to growth, diversity and creating music that resonates, adapting with the industry from analog to streaming. Whatever the genre, my mission is to deliver excellence, driven by a relentless passion for the craft.
