Started making music ever since i could remember! Music has always been a part of my life.

How do you describe your music?
A combination of electronica downtempo, synth pop, trip hop, and lo-fi.
Favorite moment from your career?
Now! I have never ever thought that I would embark on this journey of putting my music out there … I’ve always just made music as a form of release for myself.
Who is your biggest musical inspiration?
So many! I have listed Sia, Bjork, Portishead, Flight Facilities, Tokimonsta and Jamie xx as my influences for my current project. If i have to choose one, probably Sia because she’s the best songwriter!

LogicPro ..but i prefer making beats with Ableton Live

I am a full time doctor. Specifically, an anaesthesiologist. I love it! And I am very grateful that I have had the chance to study medicine because not many can have that opportunity.
What is your favorite track of all time?
Alicia Keys – If I Ain’t Got You
What is your best-producing tip?
At the start of my sound design journey, I was so excited and wanted to insert every sound i’ve designed into a single song. They ended up clipping massively and impossible to EQ. My guru in production then reminded me that a song is like a puzzle, in order to fit together, they must have space. Allow a sound to shine through by muting the others, and then alternate that so each sound has its own space!
Why did you start making music?
I wanted to release all these songs I have echo-ing in my head.
What are your goals for the future?
To keep releasing music for the next year, and hopefully have a song featured on TV. I want my song on Grey’s Anatomy!
What advice can you give for young music producers/DJs?
Always ask for help when you need it!
