Born in Paris of Haitian and American parents, I was raised with music around me. Especially as my father was a multi-instrumentalist who performed with African legends such as Salif Keita, Papa Wemba, Bonga and more. I started taking music seriously a bit over a year ago and changed my musical direction to be more honest and representative of my identity. So mixing electronic, bass, with my Afro-Carribean roots. Since then, I’ve been releasing remixes and original tracks on my Soundcloud regularly and hosting my radio show on Keakie.
The year has proved to be exciting, having performed at numerous venues and festivals around the UK as well as Germany. I have also been lucky enough to be invited as a guest on Worldwide FM, Soho Radio and Reprezent Radio and my music to feature on numerous other radio shows/mixes such as Enchufada Na Zona, Thunderstone Labs, DJ Mag, XXIII, Lowup records. I also host a regular night at Grow in Hackney called Pantheon Jam, alongside DJ Snuff, where I play more of the stuff that I love.
