Thank you, Parintele Iosif

I love film making. I love making people laugh, cry, or dance. When I approach a video, in all honesty, the only thing I want is to create an emotional connection with the audience. To move someone at the other end of line, is the challenge that motivates every shot, every frame, every cut. Everything comes back to the emotion. I want to move people, and make them feel the feelings that I feel, when I look at the world around me, be that a remarkable DJ set, a raving crowd, a beautiful sunset, a gorgeous human being, or a flicker of a moment of a tiny split second.

Visionquest Thirteen

I produced this video for the launch of Visionquest Thirteen, the 2013 world tour of the Visionquest collective: Seth Troxler, Lee Curtiss, Shaun Reeves, and Ryan Crosson.

The project began life last summer in Ibiza, when Seth Troxler asked me to lens the Visionquest party at DC10. The event was so surreal, that it inspired me to create a twisted short film.

Artist known as SIS now managed by Terry Church

One of underground house’s most exciting producers – the Berlin-based DJ and live act known as SIS – is now being managed by Terry Church.

SIS previously has been named Producer of the Year (2008) by Germany’s Groove Magazine, who also awarded him Track of the Year that year for his club hit ‘Nesrib’.

SIS was the first artist besides Ricardo Villabos to release a track on the Chilean’s hot vinyl label Sei Es Drum, with the magnificent cut ‘Trompeta’. Raveline Mag have also previously named SIS their ‘Newcomer of the Year’.

Terry Church has been working closely with SIS on the launch of his new album ‘Confidance’ (due for release April 17 2013), and is currently masterminding the launch of SIS’ new party concept CIRCLE in Ibiza this summer.

New DJ social media tips / marketing tools blog

I recently joined a new Shoreditch-based electronic music start up company called JustGoMusic.com, as Creative & Editorial Director.
