You are a Brazilian living in the UK. When did you move there and why?
Yes I am Brazilian living in London and i moved there begin of 2003 because i had to finish my university and i went there to study and to get to know the English culture better.
Psy-trance nowadays is a vast musical world. Where do you place yourself in terms of DJ style?
I’m a psy trance lover I like all the kinds of psy trance, not much progressive. i prefer to play a full on day time psy-trance, not very fast, more groove and funky.
What makes a good psytrance dance floor?
A good psy-trance dance floor for me is made with a strong beats not much breaks and a straight bass line. Plus, a great soul!
Brazil marked an era of our scene, with huge parties and many artists performing there for vast audiences. It seems those days have passed. Though, there’s still a lot of great talent coming from there…
Yes, from 2002 till later 2009 Brazil got very famous for his huge parties and massive crowds but these days isn’t like that anymore. The house and electro took over all the clubs and outdoors parties and the crowd isn’t the same and also there isn’t no more few big parties every weekend.
What are the producers to watch from your country?
Brazil always been a country with many new coming artists in all kind of electronic music since i have moved to London my style got a bit more serious than when i used to live in Brazil. For me the new psy-trance producers from Brazil to be watched are Stereo Plug, kronic and Mental Broadcast .
Final question, what can we expect from you for the following months?
Right now I’m living in Brazil since October 2009, moving back to London in April. Looking forward for a special gig at Transahara Festival which happening during the Easter time in Morocco, and I have an EP coming up in 2011 in some label probably Spun records the old and promised label is coming up with full power this year.
