A suas vivências na periferia da grande Lisboa influenciaram as suas produções que se caracterizam por uma mistura de batidas fortes fundidas com os ritmos tribais africanos e techno oriundo de Detroit. 

Actualmente a sua principal missão é continuar a usar a sua música como catalisador de emoções positivas não só a nível sonoro mas como também pela dança. Outro objectivo importante no seu trabalho é a difusão da diversidade cultural no mundo musical.
