I grew up in the small town of Valdosta, GA (USA). Growing up in a town with not much to do, I became fascinated by music arrangements and production. By my early twenties, I was one of the top producers of Roll With It Records where my primary focus was hip-hop and R&B tracks. At that time, I started to experiment with different elements of sounds and effects that are not often heard in hip-hop and R&B which ultimately became my introduction into electronic music.

At that time, I started experimenting with different elements of sounds and effects which were not often heard in hip-hop and R&B, resulting in my introduction into electronic music. After researching the various types of electronic, I started to really enjoy and wanted to utilize the aspects of ambient, progressive house, and trance. Some of my musical influences include: DJ Sasha, Vargo, Paul Oakenfold, Thievery Corporation, Outkast, Zone 7, Disturbing With Peace, and Nick Warren.

When asked why did I change from hip hop and R&B to electronic music, I simply stated that with electronic music, there seems to be a lot more creativity. “When you can tell a story with electronic music without they’re being any verses or lyrics, then that is so real music”.
Why this name?
Well can't go wrong with using my own name that I was given at birth.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It has totally changed the music industry. Now you do not have to go to a major label to become famous. With the internet and mp3's, it only takes good music to become famous.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Maybe...just depends
