What first sparked your passion for DJing and house music?

The energy of the dancefloor. I was fascinated by how music brings people together, how friendships are formed at parties, and the shared love that exists in those moments.

That connection is what inspired me to become part of this culture.

What lessons did you learn on your journey from founding Deep House Bucharest to launching Trubadour Records?

The most valuable lesson is the power of collaboration. Building and maintaining a strong team is essential — alone you can only go so far, but with the right people, you can grow something meaningful.

Who were your biggest musical influences growing up?

One of my biggest influences has always been Mihai Popoviciu. His sound is timeless, and he’s both a great DJ and a remarkable producer.

I’ve always admired the consistency of his work and see him as a true pioneer of the Romanian electronic music scene.

What is your creative process when starting a new track?

Recently, I’ve been enjoying working with samples — cutting, layering, and experimenting with beats.

I often begin with a bassline as the foundation, then gradually add melodies and grooves until the track comes alive.

How do you approach music production when working with labels like All Day I Dream and Satya?

Each label has its own unique sound and identity, so it’s important to adapt while staying true to yourself.

Today, I focus on producing music that I genuinely love and that feels natural in my sets. My sound has matured, and I feel more confident in expressing it.

What advice would you give to upcoming DJs and producers?

Be consistent, stay curious, and keep learning. Growth comes from dedication and openness to evolving your craft.

Any interesting story behind your upcoming releases?

Yes — together with my Deep House Bucharest family, we’re preparing a VA (various artists release).

We plan to retreat to the mountains for a week, working on drafts and turning them into polished tracks.

It’s a mix of music, friendship, and inspiration all in one.
