Your sound walks a fine line between introspection and club energy — do you imagine your tracks being listened to more at home or in a packed venue?
I see my music as striking a balance between home listening and the energy of a packed club. The progressive and melodic elements make it suitable for both settings. What I particularly enjoy is creating live versions of my original tracks tailored specifically for clubs or festivals. These versions bring something unique to the performance — they’re made just for that moment, just for the live experience.
“So Far To The End” feels cinematic at times. If this EP were a film, what kind of movie would it be?
If this EP were a film, I think it would be an adventure movie, blending themes of love and hope. That’s really what I try to convey through my music — a sense of emotional journey, with moments of intensity and light.
When you’re not making music, what keeps you inspired creatively? Books, art, nature — what fuels the fire?
I’d say life itself is what keeps me inspired — meeting new people, traveling, discovering new places and experiences. It’s that constant movement and sense of curiosity that fuels my creativity.
How do you decompress after finishing an emotionally heavy track or project?
I like to step outside, meet up with friends, and clear my mind. It helps me take some distance and come back to the track with a more objective perspective. After that break, I’ll listen again with fresh ears and dive into the details of the production.
If someone’s never heard your music before, which track from the new EP should they start with — and why that one?
I’d recommend starting with ‘Hold on Me.’ To me, it really captures the essence of the EP as a whole. One of the special aspects of this project is that I sang on three of the tracks, which brings a more personal and authentic touch — and ‘Hold on Me’ reflects that especially well.
You’ve got a clear sense of identity in your productions. How do you stay grounded in your sound while still pushing yourself creatively?
It took me a long time to really ‘find’ my sound, and I think that’s one of the hardest things for any artist. What I’ve learned over time is that the key to staying true to my sound is simply staying authentic in the creative process. I try not to overthink what people might want to hear or what type of track I should make for a specific label. When I let go of that pressure and focus on creating something personal, my sound comes through naturally.
Music aside — what’s something about you that your listeners would never guess?
That I never actually learned music in any formal way. No lessons, no music school — everything I do is self-taught.
Let’s say you could have one of your tracks remixed by any artist, dead or alive — who are you handing the stems to?
That’s such a tough question because there are so many artists I’d love to hand the stems to. But if I had to choose one, I’d go with Rüfüs Du Sol. To me, they’re incredibly complete as artists — their sound, emotion, and production always resonate deeply.
