I got into music at an early age, playing the upright bass at the age of 9. Continuing the pursuit of music and expanding into guitar as well as percussion in the early teenage years.

Given a recording of a DJ set by John Digweed and Sascha in 2005 was the first time I looked in to mixing as a way of not only enjoying the music itself but creating a somewhat extended journey for my own personal enjoyment as well as for the listener.

The earlier posted mixes were done using zero hardware and an early version of traktor. As of 2011 my sets are recorded using traktor software and an S4. All sets use zero cue points, zero autosync, and for the most part tracks are selected on the fly. All samples and loops used are also recorded on the fly with little or no prep.

Thanks to anyone who listens and I hope you enjoy!
