Feel good vibes only 💫
What would you play? 🌅
Last year I had a wicked opportunity to DJ an intimate boiler room-esque event at Night Tales in London, with the UEFA Champions League trophy sat firmly next to me. It was a vibe! 🏆
The video is even soundtracked by one of my unreleased records - Praying to the Moon 🌙 💫
I sampled the cabin crew… ✈️
This record has been going off in my sets recently, who should have thought the voiceover from the cabin crew, a 303 acid line and a chunky bassline would work so well?
Last weekend was a vibe as I returned home for my first hometown gig 💫
The full set is now available to listen on my SoundCloud. Link in bio 🔗🎧
I think my dad enjoyed himself…😂
This was the first time my parents have come to watch me DJ and, in all honesty, I was over the moon to have them come watch me DJ after all this time.
My dad was the person who got me into music from a young age, we used to listen to his extensive collection of funk, soul and disco records. My mum also loves house and disco so this is definitely where my love of house music has evolved from. We would spend hours listening to it and him teaching us some of dance moves he learnt on the dance floor back in the 80s.
Growing up seeing him play the sax was also what inspired me to learn the same instrument as well as a few others, and most likely the reason I ended up producing electronic music too.
He’s always been the first and last person on the dancefloor, bringing the energy and good vibes, which was no different on Saturday when I played my first hometown gig. I think he enjoyed himself more than I did 😂
He’s always said music is his religion and I couldn’t say it better myself.
“We ask that you turn off your portable electronic devices or turn them to airplane mode” ✈️
I made this one last week ready for my gig at @theproglab in Bristol on Saturday and managed to get it finished at the hotel just in time for the show.
Based on the crowd reaction, I think I’ll have to get this one polished and sent to some labels 😏
Soooo…guess who’s just been booked for their first HEADLINE gig?!? 🤯
Just as things couldn’t get any better after these last few weeks, im over the moon to announce that I will be headlining in Bournemouth on the 14th September, which will also my first time playing in the city.
I will be playing alongside the almighty @manchild_uk, an artist who has supported some of the biggest DJs on the planet and is just a great guy and one I’ve been waiting to meet, @altopersona_ who’s hosting the event and no doubt will come armed with some wicked underground prog records as well as Pete B.
Tickets on sale now over on Skiddle. Counting down the days ⏰
I’m in disbelief right now…
I’m in disbelief right now…
Two weekends ago, I was in Ibiza. I had just got back from a night out and I was chilling watching Ibiza Global Radio on the TV with my mates. I turned around to them and said one day I will hear my music on there.
Fast forward to today and I’ve just seen a video of Yulia Niko drop my unreleased track Praying to the Moon live on @ibizaglobalradio.
For anyone who knows me, they will know that Ibiza is my favourite place on earth and I’ve been dreaming of hearing my music played there every since I started this journey. Never did I expect it would be so soon and not by a global superstar DJ that is @yulianiko.
This is a huge pinch myself moment and it’s moments like this that make all the hard work feel worth it.
What a day!
Next Saturday 13th July, @superprogressive and myself will be taking over @peckham.arches as we host a special, one-off intimate day party.
Here’s a little teaser of the venue, it’s going to be a good one 💫 tickets available on RA 🎟️
6 months ago I made this track, it releases this Friday on @resound_music 💫

I CAN’T QUITE BELIEVE IT 🤯💫
I’VE JUST BEEN BOOKED FOR MY BIGGEST GIG TO DATE, supporting @henrysaiz, @emigalvanmusic and @jeremyolander and playing alongside the outstanding Prog Lab DJs on July 20th in Bristol.
This is by far the biggest milestone in my career so far and I can’t wait to soak up this incredible experience. A huge thank you to @theproglab for inviting me to play at one of their amazing parties and who are pioneering the way here in the U.K. when it comes to progressive house alongside other excellent events.
COME ON!!
Road testing new unreleased music, what do you think? 🤔💭
A little backstory behind my release tomorrow with @config_of_self 💫
The EP is called “Everyday Mysteries” and it is based around how our brain processes memories and moments, in particular ones that make us feel distressed or uncomfortable.
Our collaboration on the EP is called “Beginning the Process” and it explores a much more emotional and deeper side of my music that I have yet to share with the world.
This is a very special release for me as it was made during a tough time so I hope you enjoy it.
Out on all your usual platforms tomorrow ✌🏻
🚨 Event announcement 🚨
