Which kind of music did you listen to when you were a teenager?
Back in my teenage years, I mostly listened to pop and electronic music. Michael Jackson’s catchy beats and vibrant synths laid the foundation for my musical taste and eventually led me to explore deeper, more nuanced sounds.
And now?
Today, my taste has evolved into a melting pot of styles. I love blending modern electronic sounds, deep house grooves, and Afro-tech rhythms that keep the energy high and the dancefloor moving.
Which platform do you use to listen to music?
I use a variety of platforms: Spotify for daily playlists, SoundCloud for discovering underground gems, and Beatport when I’m on the hunt for the freshest club releases.

Africa is a powerhouse of rhythm and diversity, and its influence is undeniable.

This fusion of traditional and modern electronic sounds is reshaping the global music scene.
Who are your favorite DJs and producers these days?

What are your favorite clubs and festivals?
When it comes to clubs, I love the vibe at Surf Club Dubai (a fantastic beach club), Cova Santa in Ibiza, and Soluna in Toronto. As for festivals, Zamna and EDC always deliver unforgettable experiences, and I have to add Untold to that list. Each venue and festival have their own unique magic that keeps me inspired.
What is the most important record in your box?
The most important track in my life has to be my “Sorry” collaboration with Madonna. It’s a record that not only defines a pivotal moment in my career but also encapsulates the creative risks that have shaped who I am as an artist.
What’s your all-time favorite track?
It’s hard to pick just one, but if I had to choose, it would be Nadia Ali’s “Love Story” (remixed by Sultan & Ned Shepard). That track always brings the perfect blend of emotion and energy, resonating with every set I play.

I’m always excited to hear new music. The best way to send me promos is by dropping a link via Instagram DM.
