 Where are you currently based?

I recently lived in Nanjing, China. My studio is also here.

How did you first start DJing?

When I was 16 years old, I heard DISCO and Techno music on the radio. I was fascinated by electro at that time, and I also liked this career very much. By chance, I met a DJ from Shanghai in the club when I was 17 years old.

You recently did a Livestream for DJ mag https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s094lskRTgM

I am honored to receive the invitation of DJMAG to participate in this live broadcast. I recorded this program on a beautiful hill in Xi ‘an city. This set mainly focuses on House and Tech House, and also includes many of my works and mashups.

How did you prepare for the DJ Mag stream?

We have done a lot of preparatory work, including music, MV, publicity and so on, all around the positioning of reflecting my Chinese elements to plan everything.

There are many factors that may influence my music, because I have been a DJ since 1997, and the experience and taste accumulated over the years are the source of my creation.
