It has taken me a long time to find a sound that I am truly happy with. From my first releases on Smokin' Sessions & Mindset Records to more experimental pieces on Styrax & Exit, I have gradually developed it into something which I think really reflects me as an artist.

One of the key factors in the development of my sound was in 2012. After hearing a few of my early pieces on YouTube, Renaat Vandepapeliere contacted me. Ren explained that he was going to relaunch Apollo Records, the legendary sister label to R&S Records and he wanted some exclusive material from me. I sent Ren what I thought was an albums worth of material and he carefully chose 4 tracks for an EP that ended up being the first release to relaunch the label. Since then, I have found a home with Apollo and Ren has really helped over the past few years by giving me the space and freedom to develop my sound over several EPs. I really admire his attitude towards the music industry and have massive amounts of respect for him and Sabine for everything they have done for electronic music.

This mix basically represents my journey so far with a lot of exclusive material in there from myself and a few close friends (Bering Strait, Seers & Djrum). Some of my new tracks take elements from previous work, and others are completely new ideas that I have only recently finished. It's been great fun putting the mix together and it kind of feels like a mini album in some ways. I would like to thank Yasmin Lever for the amazing artwork & thanks to BR for the opportunity.
