You didn’t know you needed it until you hear it. DJs’ DJ, or musician’s musician, if you will.

Resident of Drift Kyiv and Salo, he knows his techno, house, and minimal like ABCs and is not afraid to show it on the dancefloor. Catchy? Yes, maybe in the most primitive sense of this word, but also undeniably nuanced, sharp, and precise. The sets are basically P̷̡̠̠͎̼̤̺̗̮̖̩͚̲͈̌̏̿͂̂͋́̓͆̀̑̿̋̊̚̚ͅVA glue once you are on the fl̷͍̤̀̏̍̆̏̑̄͆̋̊̍̊̀̀̽͒̓̓͋̂̾̿͋͑̐̕͝͝͠oor. Mixing is baroque, technically dense but intentional, and the selection is heavy on vintage sounds; the past is endless inspiration.
