Trance is the air I breathe.
Since the early 2000s, I’ve been inhaling trance — a lifelong obsession that has taken me around the world in pursuit of unforgettable sounds, experiences and epic journeys.
Inspired by artists such as Above & Beyond, Ferry Corsten, Lange, Bart Claessen and Darren Tate, my sets are all about taking people on a journey. From uplifting melodies and euphoric breakdowns to driving, hands-in-the-air moments, I love building a story through trance and creating that feeling where the music, the crowd and the moment become one.
My passion for the scene has seen me experience some of the world’s biggest trance events, including GlobalGathering, Transmission, Dreamstate and Luminosity — soaking up the atmosphere and inspiration from some of the best dance floors on the planet.
Back home in New Zealand, I’ve played across the country and continue to bring my love for proper trance to dance floors nationwide. Most recently, I had the honour of opening for trance legend Lange, a milestone that perfectly reflects the journey this music has taken me on.
Now, I’m focused on bringing those epic trance journeys back to my home city of Wellington — creating memorable nights, connecting with fellow trance lovers and keeping the spirit of the music I love alive.
The journey never ends. The music never stops.
Trance is the air I breathe.
