Q: Before we dig in, what's next for you?

Currently, I have quite a large number of demos I am getting ready to send to labels to get my release schedule ready for next year.  I’m also working with my team and we are about to start a major brand expansion, and I’m in talks with certain artists about plans to join a couple of tours this Fall.

Q: Tell us about a memorable moment from one of your live performances?

This is memorable but in a different way…I was playing a show once at a club.  I was on an elevated platform looking over the crowd.  While in the middle of my set, I felt someone grab both of my ankles.  Let me tell you…that is a very weird feeling that you don’t realize is weird until it happens…but when will this ever happen to a normal person lol.  Anyhow, I turned around and looked down and it was this girl asking to request a song from Bad Bunny. I can’t make this stuff up haha.

Q: How does music impact your life?

It shapes everything I do, from both a professional artist standpoint and a consumer.  I’m constantly listening to music throughout every day.  I use it for inspiration on projects, I use it to relax, I use it to work out, I use it to get away, and everything in between.  Not just electronic music, but all genres.  It is the core of who I am.

Q: What's the most embarrassing song on your playlist?

oooooof lol.  A handful of Backstreet Boys songs.

Q: What's the most ridiculous music video you've ever seen?

“The Reason” by Hoobastank. Here you got this awesome power ballad about finding a reason to live because of this girl and the music video was about stealing some weird diamond…like what?!

Q: What is your favorite ice cream flavor?

Orange or cherry sherbert… most things sherbert.

Q: If you could solve one global problem overnight, what would it be?

Airline flights leaving on time and LA & Washington DC traffic.

Q: If you had a time machine and could visit any historical period, where and when would you go?

Dinosaurs! The cretaceous period to be exact. The location would be wherever the popular dinosaurs are. Who wouldn’t want to see a T-Rex or Raptor…? Of course, would need to have some type of invincible powers so I wouldn’t get eaten. If I’m already time traveling I think I can add these invincibility powers to the mix and wouldn’t be a far stretch.

Q: What movies have inspired you?

There are two. The first is Shawshank Redemption. It has my favorite quote ever that states how I believe people should move through life. “Get busy living or get busy dying.” The second is Gladiator. It’s a movie about perseverance when everything is taken from you when you are at the very top. Any time I watch either of these movies I just want to win at everything I do.

Q: Describe your most bizarre life experience thus far?

I ate goat brain once in Jordan
