I have been in this music world for almost half my lifetime, flipping from an accountant to pursuing matters-media. A pioneer of so many deejay-related initiatives and projects :- Deejay academies, Veejaying, Live Stream from clubs , podcasting, Deejay battling etc , that have gotten me to higher grounds of relevance and influenced many aspiring.
An influential business mind with a casual but keen observation to opportunities and passion to amending what seems the greatest challenge.
My passion is my drive and curiosity is my fuel. Always willing to learn what's new & unique to generate (modify from)
I have worked under the largest entertainment company in Easter-central Africa (Homeboyz Entertainment) propelling deejaying from simply doing gigs to:
- Building the first DJ academy in Africa
- First Deejay-owned radio station
- First ever TV owned by a deejay
- Did almost all state and corporate events in Eastern Africa.
This helped open up global doors for me to represent and showcase my skill beyond the Kenyan & African boundaries
. I am a deejay "toy" junkie and always in pursuit of new products and softwares with a vast deejay with a musical ear to production level, a distinct style of mixing that appeals to the ear.
I have won two competitions in my career as a deejay that helped elevate me to pro- standards (Levels) I was the 2015 African Deejay of the year.

Worked with most radio & Tv stations both locally and in East Africa on various shows and projects. And also good relevance/ consultancy to many producers on music production. I don't work in big clubs, I make clubs BIG
I am well travelled with a vast experience in music between 2006-2015 of all genres, Ranging from old school to breaking records. I love technology and incorporate graphics, visuals and a lot of lighting features on my set to have a show of its own using programs like Arena, Ableton and NDI tools to capture moments visually and sync with Serato.
My style revolves around blends & Mashing up tunes. I love R & B due to the musical factor & have been mashing up tracks even before SERATO introduced stems, Used to spend time and money digging on sites with stems and tools, even though many were hard to find. the 4-part stems have made blends be easy & I try showcasing that when I can, fuse in with loops , turntables and word-play to create a. distinct style. I feel there's a lot the world of deejays learn from the older era of deejays who grew up looping 12'' records & carrying crates.. from organizing crates to being able to see through the grooves and not just relying on a compact rig and four buttons to trigger your songs.
Sky is the limit. Only music shall live till the end of the world. Deejaying is the frame.
A fan of basketball and cars, a FIRM believe in CHRIST with a great passion to always play and touch the lives of many.
