Check out the exclusive interview with the DJ below:
1: Could you tell us more about your experience as a DJ in Dubai and how the music scene there influences your style?
I love music and working out. In Dubai, I've managed to combine both passions. I'm playing at the biggest gyms here, at restaurants, on boats, birthdays. And as soon as Ramadan is over, I'll be playing at beach clubs and bigger parties.
2: What inspired you to choose Afro house, house, and deep house as your preferred genres to play?
Because they are styles that I never tire of listening to, the beats and various elements enchant me. I'm eclectic and a fan of various music styles and DJs.
3: How do you balance your passion for music with your other interests and activities?
Right now, I'm more focused on music, and I have a family business where we customize uniforms for companies. My sister and I created a collection of T-shirts with phrases and for DJs. We'll be launching it soon.
4: Can you share insights into your creative process when preparing and performing a DJ set?
I have a feeling for good music, regardless of the style. When I hear a song for the first time, I think, "This track will be a hit," and I never miss. Soon, I'll be releasing my first music track.
5: What are your goals and aspirations as a DJ, both in Dubai and globally?
I want to play in Ibiza, where the biggest DJs perform.
6: How has your international experience, from Los Angeles to Dubai, shaped your perspective on music and performance?
Each country has its peculiarities, but I've realized that both places are eclectic, just like me. What sets a DJ apart is their perception of the audience, adjusting the BPM and songs as needed.
