Hi! Great to have you with us! How are you?<\/b><\/p>\n

Hey there, thanks for having me. Everything is great, I\u2019ve had a fantastic summer.<\/p>\n

How has your year been so far? What have been the highlights of 2024? How has your summer been?<\/b><\/p>\n

This year has been incredible, filled with new music and exciting developments. I’ve made significant progress with this project and connected with a growing audience. I’m proud to have released tracks on top labels like Impressum and ERRORR. And with the year not over yet, there are still a few surprises in store.<\/p>\n

You have releases on a plethora of labels such as Impressum, ERRORR and Tomorrowland Music. How did you come to make these connections and release on such prestigious platforms?<\/b><\/p>\n

I sent them a few tracks, they liked what they heard, and the rest is history! It\u2019s always an incredible feeling when such influential labels recognize and appreciate your hard work.<\/p>\n

And tell us about your musical journey. What landed you on this side of the musical spectrum? What speaks to you about melodic techno?<\/b><\/p>\n

I’ve always been drawn to darker, more melancholic music\u2014the kind that carries a sense of mystery and isn’t easily understood by everyone. Over the years, I’ve developed a unique style that reflects this, becoming a bit of a storyteller through my music. There’s so much depth and possibility within melodic techno, and it continues to inspire me.<\/p>\n

Who are your main musical inspirations?<\/b><\/p>\n

There are so many great artists, not just in the electronic music scene but also beyond it. Within our genre, though, I’d highlight Lastlings, Maceo Plex, and James Holden.<\/p>\n

What would your dream B2B be?<\/b><\/p>\n

Maceo Plex. I really like how he moves behind the decks. Can\u2019t top that, but I will try!<\/p>\n

Where do you draw inspiration before going in the studio?What fuels you?<\/b><\/p>\n

The idea usually builds up in my head first, and then I start working on it, which typically takes a few weeks. Back in the day, I would jump straight into the DAW and see what I could come up with. Now, with more experience, I prefer to start when I already have a clearer idea in mind. It\u2019s faster and more efficient, but it definitely took time to develop this skill. My main fuel is listening to a wide range of music to find inspiration.<\/p>\n

And what is your studio set up like at the moment?<\/b><\/p>\n

Arturia MatrixBrute, Prophet Rev2, Jupiter XM, Subsequnet 37, Virus TI, Novation Peak.<\/p>\n

Apollo 8x and OS Acoustics DBS8.<\/p>\n

What do you like to do to relax outside of production and DJing?<\/b><\/p>\n

Recently, I\u2019ve started taking weekends off to stay in nice hotels with my family. It\u2019s been a great way to change the scenery and discover amazing places that were always nearby but that I never took the time to explore. I also love enjoying good restaurants, and luckily, Israel has so many to offer! Taking time out to refresh and recharge is crucial for staying inspired and energized in my work.<\/p>\n

What music do you listen to outside of electronic?<\/b><\/p>\n

Jazz, local music, indie-pop\u2014I love exploring different genres.<\/p>\n

What are your three essential tracks right now?<\/b><\/p>\n

Against All \u00d8dds – Falling Down (Original Mix)<\/p>\n

Against All \u00d8dds – Higher Ground (Extended Mix)<\/p>\n

Against All \u00d8dds – Empire (Extended Mix)<\/p>\n

What was the last record that blew you away?<\/b><\/p>\n

Axel Haube, Paul Anthonee – Tetra<\/p>\n

What has been your favourite gig to play?<\/b><\/p>\n

Cielo NYC was one of my first gigs ever and remains one of the most memorable. It was a fantastic club with an incredible sound system!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
