ZMi, who has been shaping the music scene with his unique style for nearly a quarter of a century, has been captivated by the power of music since childhood. Born and raised with a strong influence from genres such as Hip-Hop, RnB, Soul, Pop, and Electronic Music, he developed a deep passion for sound early on.

His journey began on the streets of Bern, where he absorbed the pulsating beats of hip-hop culture and drew inspiration from rhythmic melodies. From there, his path led him to the roots of soul music and the diverse sounds of the electronic spectrum. This musical diversity shaped his unique taste and defined his style as a DJ.

From a young age, ZMi felt the urge not only to be a listener but to become a part of the music world himself. With an insatiable desire to create something of his own, he delved into the world of music production. His creative impulses contributed to the creation of unique mixes and remixes that soon caught the attention of the local scene.

Throughout his career as a DJ, ZMi has conquered the stages of various cities and clubs, presenting his unique fusion of different genres and creating an energetic atmosphere that captivates the audience. His sets take the audience on a journey through the sonic landscapes of his influences, ranging from urban beats to electronic highs.

Beyond the stage, ZMi reveals himself as a versatile artist, mastering not only the DJ decks but also demonstrating an intuition for the production and design of music. His musical legacy is reflected not only in his performances but also in his own productions, capturing the essence of his creative journey.

ZMi, proving that true passion and dedication can stand the test of time. With a quarter-century of experience, he continues to be a trailblazer for those inspired by music, embarking on their own artistic journey.
