Current styles played?
Tech-House and surrounding genres. Anything with a funky bassline, strange groove, and organic sounding percussion.
Styles played in the past?
First started buying detroit house and techno.. as a beginner dj I got frustrated with trying to mix these often complex sounds and I started buying trance which lasted less than a year. The funny thing was it was always my old records that I felt like playing when I was at home so here I am playing what I`ve always loved and still playing some of the first recs I ever bought. Oh, and I also owned like 10 breakbeat happyhardcore records that I played at a couple parties, but I have sold those since.

Do you enjoy the songs you play?
That is why i play them. To me the songs that a dj plays illustrates some of their personality. I guess because I assume that they are playing songs that they really like.

Yes. I just put them in the back of the crate and in two weeks or less they are fresh again.
