What fascinates you about the psytrance culture?
For me, Psytrance is pure love. Everything about Psytrance is fascinating whether its Bassline, Music, food, chai stalls, people from different countries.
What are your musical influences?
Not anyone in particular, I believe we can learn from everyone which is why I always seek ways to learn from different artists.
We as artists have a responsibility towards our audience. What is the keynote that you want to pass on to your listeners, what is your message?
Keep psytrance pure. Stay away from drugs. Enjoy the music and atmosphere. When you get deep into music you’ll find that you don’t need any Lsd for a trip. Music will take you to places.

I already have been working on a lot of projects, this time the vocals as well as the music are made by Me for the singles
