Tell us about how you initially got started as an electronic music producer\/DJ; were there any specific producers or DJs that influenced you artistically?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well, somewhere around 2006 I was spending a lot of time on computer listening to various electronic music and watching online DJ parties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most of the time I was listening to dark techno, minimal and aggressive beats and I was wondering how do they create these alien kinda sounds. When autumn came, I came along with the passion of techno music and started my first track.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2008, dark minimal techno become very popular in my area so back then I was visiting very often the clubs in my town.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There was an underground club called “Kremlin” which got my into DJ-ing after I realized that people were dancing on my tracks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Without giving away any trade secrets, can you tell us what software\/hardware you use to produce your music?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the moment, a laptop, studio headphones, Fruity Loops and a tons of VSTs because I travel worldwide very often.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You’ve mentioned that you have performed at techno underground events. What do you enjoy most about DJing for a live audience and do you have a favorite track or mix to play?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The energy, the same wavelength of love and most of all, the people and the power of techno music. I have many favorite tracks to play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tell us about your label Marl Music; why you decided to launch it, and what your goals are for it.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I decided to launch it in order to find and release new talents and to grow the techno music industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What are some things\/people\/places that inspire your creativity when developing new music?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sci fi movies, reading futuristic articles, happy people, sad people, most of the inspiration comes from my heart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With 2020 winding down, what are some of your goals musically in 2021, and what do you feel must happen for you to achieve them?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

My goals in 2021 is to make more music, and in order to achieve more goals, like playing on big festivals besides underground events, my only enemy is the pandemic. #TechnoPower<\/p>\n\n\n\n
