  • Can you describe your approach to art and being an artist?

My approach as an artist is to walk along with the soul. For me a person who creates art is a person who’s connected to his soul, his colours, his sounds, his shapes and his thoughts. I believe that it gives me a place to show myself to the world.

I consider that art is freedom, allowing me to express myself in a different language. I truly believe that it is essential for everyone. For me being an artist is a gift. I invest so much time in it because it is one of my passions. It makes me feel good and happy and that is the greatest part of it for me.

  • When did you start writing/producing music?

My journey in the music industry started when I was 7 years old, my mom bought cool software on a CD called EJAY. For the first time in my life I created and produced Dance music. I remember recording beats with my family’s radio tape and playing them some of my creations. Those felt like my very first gigs.

2 years later I started taking Saxophone lessons. For 5 years I was playing saxophone in the local orchestra in my city. During that period, I started producing with FL Studio, I used to go back to the studio after my orchestra’s rehearsals to produce music, using some of the same notes I played a few hours earlier.

Back then I was mostly making remixes and my versions of famous songs, posting them on music forums and social media platforms. Some of them were picked up by well-known radio stations and also played in notorious clubs in Tel Aviv. Moreover, some of these tunes got thousands of views on YouTube.

  • When did you start DJing – and what or who were your early passions and influences? What is about music and/or sound that drew you to it?

I first started DJ-ing 3 years ago, my first time was at a friend´s party in Tel Aviv. I played for 2 hours for a Midburn Community, the Israeli Burning Man festival. The music style was Tech House and Deep Tech music.

My dream of becoming a DJ/Producer started many years ago. When I was younger, I dreamt of becoming a Trance DJ. However, due to my experiences in life, and new influences, I feel like the House scene is the best for me.

What was your first set-up as a DJ like?

My first gig was extremely exciting. Back then I was an unknown DJ. My set-up was extremely simple, a PC laptop and Traktor MK4 controller.

  • What is the process of preparing for a live show like?

I usually need a day or 2 to get ready for a live show, just to listen to music and pick up some tracks. I really like playing brand new tracks from unknow artists. I got my special sources for this and I like to refresh dancefloors with new sounds that excite me.

  • What is it about DJing, compared to, say, producing your own music, that makes it interesting for you?

I feel that DJ-ing allows me to interact with the public. Seeing how they enjoy my music, their smiles and dance moves. I love studio work but D-Jing inspires me in a different way.

  • What can you tell us about the Israel scene?

That’s a good question, Israelis love to party hard and we know how to have a good time, I can surly say we live in the moment when we party.

The music genres that mostly rule in Israel are Psy-trance, Deep House and Techno, we have huge communities and scenes here for these types of music. Parties every night and huge festivals, before Covid-19 started obviously.

Tech House hasn’t reached here yet, though it’s 2020. I hope to be the one who brings the news as soon as life gets to normal again.

  • I may have heard you have new releases coming, is that true?

Yes, it is true I have some scheduled releases for the next 2 months on labels such as Groove 33, Lapsus, Ole Records, Innocent and more.

In addition, I have some unscheduled releases for later this year and next year. I recently signed on some great labels such as Cocoa, Gruff, Unnamed & Unknown and more. Gotta say I’m super excited about these releases and being signed on these great labels. I believe it is a great opportunity to develop my career and my network inside the music industry.
