Why did you choose hardstyle and techno?
I chose hardstyle because it's melodic and aggressive at the same time. Techno is great because it doesn't have strict rules...
I play everything, from a slow beat to a fast beat with multiple elements. Today, I don't see myself confined to a single style; I want to explore as a producer, and I'm studying for that. But these two styles, along with uplifting trance, are what I've been listening to the most lately.
Which DJ would you like to meet?
There are several, but right now, it would be Frontline and Radical Redemption from the hardstyle scene. Sander Van Doorn and Hardwell from EDM, and Marlo for trance.
When did you decide to pursue this career and why DJing?
I took this course at the age of 16 in 2010. In 2013, I went to college and had to stop electronic music. But everything changed in 2016 when I went to Tomorrowland Brazil, and I realized that's what I wanted to do with my life—it's the best choice I've made!
I became a DJ because I love connecting with people, and what better way to connect than through music? It brings peace, joy, and diversion, and for me, it's incredible.
Explain why electronic music isn't popular in Brazil.
It's not so popular because there's a bias in the music industry. Brazil is divided when it comes to electronic music, and people think it's only suitable for drug consumption, which is not true. It's a space that encompasses all social classes and races. It's not just music; it's art.
In which country would you like to play first? And why?
There are several countries I'd like to explore because I enjoy learning about different cultures.
But if I had to choose one to play in, it would be the Netherlands because of the musical variety and festivals focused on electronic music.
