How did you start?
It was back in 2007. I subscribed to some channels that were uploading tunes with nice pictures and i was like yeah i can do that and it can help the producers. Back in the day i had no idea, i was just randomly uploading music i liked and that were not uploaded on the Internet yet!
Where are you currently based?
Born and raised in Ostrava, Czech Republic. I am still living here.
Where are you playing internationally this year?
Ive got two confirmed gigs in UK at the moment. But I’m also in touch with guys from other countries and we’re talking about possible gigs in there. Hopefully I will have more info soon!
Please describe your production process:
Basically I just download all the demos people sent me, listen to them and then i choose the best tracks and get back to the people and talk about the conditions and stuff. But now I don’t do video for every track i upload. Now i upload unreleased stuff with static pictures for example. Videos i do only for labels or for tracks that really sounds great to me and i have a vision of video that could work together with the music.
What are you working on right now?
Today I finished video for a Sydney based label Post Pluto, which is for a track by riggles and its remixed by Sonderr. Another video I am working on is for track by DJ Overdose which is came out few days ago on Craigie Knowes.
What is your equipment setup?
I just work with laptop and video software.
What do you like to do outside of music and does it affect your music?
I really like hanging out with my homies or doing stuff with my girl. Recently Ive got really into trampoline jumping, that’s really cool thing! I think i can say that theres no outside of music in my life. Kinda everything i do in my life now is connected with music in some way.
How would you describe your music genre?
first of all, i have no genre restrictions! i am open to anything. i also like tech house :~)
What are your plans for the future?
Get better at djing. And hopefully release my tracks somewhere, maybe on my own label.
How did you get into music?
I was always watching the streams from love parade and really liked it. My dad also had some trance/techno/dance compilations so i was busting them at the age of 7 hehe. But also one of my friends helped me to get into the electronic music from UK. He was sending me Czech hip hop mix tapes/albums and one day he sent me a mix tape from grime MC called Smack and that started my love affair with grime/ukg/bassline/uk funky/dubstep and basically everything from the scene out there. After that i started my own journey through music and still evolving my taste”
What are you listening to at the moment?
To lot of nice stuff! For example Octave (Ro), Hostox, Archie Hamilton, Stardub, Rowlanz, DJ Steaw, Realitycheck, So Inagawa, Dean Blunt, Hodge, Kowton and many more!
Who are your top 3 influences and icons?
This is bit hard question! But i can surely say: Ben UFO, Gilles Peterson and Ricardo Villalobos!
When are you playing next?
Playing Letiště Festival 2017 on saturday!
