I’m an eclectic DJ based in Liverpool, UK, originally from Istanbul, Türkiye. My passion lies in blending melodic sounds across genres like deep house, tech house, melodic house, afro house, lo-fi, garage, downtempo, world music, disco, and soul.

Someone once described my sound as “trippy yet groovy” and I think that still sums it up pretty well.

While my live sets are more dancefloor-oriented, I love creating mixes for streaming that are better suited to home listening.

Hope you enjoy the ride. <3
