This set is a long time overdue, inspired by the unforgettable night at the Shire Festival, hosted by The Bloom Collective. I've tried to recreate the same vibe and energy that made that night so special. This mix is part of my ETHERIC VOYAGES series, which I've been eager to continue despite life's many interruptions. I hope you enjoy this journey and feel the same magic that we all experienced that night.

With over 14 years of experience behind the decks, I have taken my dancefloor reading skills across a journey of genres and settings over the years. I've played at outrageous house parties, uni parties, weddings & corporate events, clubs, bars, music festivals, and Burning Man!

My multi-genre selections range from a mix of melodic/deep/progressive/vocal house & techno, to groovy house and disco tunes for some good hip-shaking measure!

I play music that I enjoy, and mix music in a way that resonates with my love for dancing...like no one is watching...

I got into DJing because of Yourshot. I participated in 2023 and won the competition. It was an amazing experience. The organisation provides a great opportunity to connect with people who are passionate about music and do what they do just for the love of music. 

My musical journey kicked off at 16, diving into EDM through India's underground rave scene. Psytrance grabbed me tight and hasn't let go since.

Fast forward seven years, and I walked into the Melbourne's techno scene (Thanks to my partner to getting me into it). The tunes, the people, the whole vibe – it just clicked.

Now, I'm all about spreading the word on Melodic Techno. Whether I'm Blasting it in my headphones, mixing tracks, or boogie on the dance floor, it's all about those good vibes.
