#Purpose
I haven't been in the best place lately and have been going through a rough patch. I've felt defeated, unmotivated, and spent most of my time in bed. Losing my job, going through a tough breakup, and dealing with everything else has made it feel like nothing is going my way.
While lying in bed, listening to music and trying to summon the energy and courage to get up, I came across a beautiful vocal track by Bixx and Christina Novelli.
I couldn't have related more to the lyrics and the emotion behind Purpose. It struck a chord in me and got me straight into the studio, inspired to see if I could contribute to the original track. My goal was to honor its essence and emotion while adding my own touch and the feelings I've been working through.
For the first time in a while, I feel a spark of excitement to create and stay out of bed. Here's a clip of what I’ve been working on—I hope you enjoy it.
A huge thanks to Bob Bickert for his positive feedback, motivating words, and encouragement to finish this remix.

Great to see Paul Van Dyk still supporting my track Live Again! This time in London UK for 30 years of For an Angel.
Thanks to Gareth Evans for sending me this moment!

I often question myself why I keep going? What drives me? What motivates me? How can I succeed in an industry where the odds & cards are stacked against me.
The answer I always end up on is because I am ME. I know how much I love music, I know how hard I work, & I know im willing to do whatever it takes to succeed & that my lucky break is around the corner.
Being able to share my music with you all is an amazing feeling & im really fortunate that my music and expressions have been able to travel from ME to YOU.
This year hasn't been the easiest on me, having given much of my energy to those who didn't deserve it, walked all over me, & mistaken my kindness for weakness. I'm proud to say that im slowly getting back on track and 2025 will be an even bigger and better year, moving me one step closer to achieving my goal of touring.
This track is an expression of the ups & downs I've been feeling as of late & im looking forward to letting it out & sharing it with you all soon.
This is "Sunrise After Heartbreak Falls"

As I reach the end of working on this project, the studio has a bit more light present than the usual dark, underground, clubby vibe.
I always enjoy working on my tracks, but there is no feeling like having the end in sight.
Putting the final touches on this one today. What a ride it has been & I can't wait to share this one with you all !
Huge thanks to RAM for believing in me & motivating me to be the best I can be.
This has always been one of my favorite #Trance tracks of all time. It has been long overdue that I put my touch on it.

Getting to express myself through my music is one of the most liberating feelings & one that comes the most natural to me.
Looking forward to sharing this one with you all.
MY FIRST ASOT PLAY !!!
One of my goals I have been working towards achieving since I started producing music was to hear one of my tracks being played on A State Of Trance. Yesterday this dream became a reality when Armin van Buuren supported my upcoming track on Future Sound of Egypt "Four Seasons Within". I could not be happier knowing that all my hard work over the years is starting to pay off and I'm checking off my targeted goals. My dreams are now coming to fruition & all the hard work in the studio learning to perfect my craft & develop my sound are now paying off.
Huge thanks to everyone who has been encouraging, supporting, dancing & playing my music loud around the globe. The ability and power that music has to connect all around the globe is incredible & I will forever be grateful for the opportunity to share my music with you all.
