For our readers who aren’t familiar with you, can you summarise yourself and what you play in a few sentences?

According to Chat GPT, I’m a sonic architect, weaving together the past, the future, and the indefinable present into a seamless auditory experience.

In normal human terms – I’m a DJ and producer from London leaning towards the harder, darker, more industrial side of techno. Also, a sonic architect.

Let’s get straight to the good stuff. If our readers wanted to listen to 5 tracks that describe your vibes, what are the 5 tracks you would offer up?

I think the below give a pretty good representation. From the trippy and melodic stuff to the more schranzy and industrial:

Frazi.er – Recovering Vape Addict (Original Mix) [Blackworks]

Greg Nothill – Be Right Back (Original Mix) [G-Not Recordings]

UNAMED – Emmene Moi Raver Didier (Jan Vercauteren Remix) [Demain Kollekitv]

In Verruf – Frei (Original Mix) [R-Label]

Wanton & Karah – Berzerker (Original Mix) [Falsive Records]

Bonus:
Kruger – Edge Of The Abyss [Coincidence Records]

What is your favourite thing about DJing in 2023?

I’ve had the opportunity to showcase a significant number of my original tracks in my performances. My production skills have undoubtedly accelerated over the years. In the past, I hesitated to play my unreleased material in public as I wasn’t confident in the quality. However, that mindset has shifted recently.

It’s always a great feeling when a track you’ve worked so hard on gets such a big reaction from the crowd.

What’s your least favourite thing about DJing in 2023?

So….. Many……. Influencers……. Making Tik Toks on the danceloor

Okay. I need you to invent something for me that relates to the music scene. It can be a gadget, a tool, a product, a new law…. the world is your oyster. (Tip: Think about what dance music needs, or what you think is missing, and invent that)

I think its safe to say that all ravers would want an app that can ID unreleased tracks. Basically Shazaam on steroids. 

Coolest place you’ve ever played?

Tomorrowland – gonna be hard to beat that one! Absolute madness   

Longest set you’ve ever done?

At a festival / club? 2 hours

At a private party? 6 hours

On acid? 26 seconds

At the end of this interview, we’re going to drop a mix from you. Why should readers listen? And what kind of person will like it? 

This set is the first one from myself for my recently launched podcast “Digital Fragments” and includes tracks from producer friends of mine as well as my own. It’s a got a bit of sthg in it for everyone.

Look into the future. Give us a prediction for 2024? What kind of stuff is going to happen that we should know about?

There’s a whole lot of unreleased music im sitting on at the moment which I’m looking to release sometime next year. I’m also going to be collaborating on a few projects with some artists which i’m personally really looking forward to.

I’ll also be looking to launch my own label and looking to host a night in London with a friend of mine

And finally, I’ll be continuing with my radio show “Digital Fragments”

Finally, where can we find you?
