 The term Freestyle  is really my style.While djing, I mix up anything from any period as long as it got the groove, the feel AND the sound I like.A night may begin with Donna summer or Sonar Collektive grooves and end with Emmanuel Top or acid breaks, with Stevie Wonder,Laurent Garnier,Max Romeo and Anne Clarke in the middle, with a dose of old school like Gloria jones or Olatunji....Put it simple: I play a mix of house, electro, breaks, funk, about anything that is in my state of mind that day.

 My own music reflects from that.I create each day music in completly different genres , with the knowing it will fit inside my head as music I like - or not...

 Seriously- I try to make music that can make you move AND think in the same time.Not an easy task I tell you....
