I am an open format EDM DJ with the power of autism and neurodivergent. Back at February 2020 before lockdown, I have been inspired by my friend and the world famous DJ, James Hype. I have been taught by to watch on YouTube channel called Crossfader. In April 2023, I was so more than happy because I am on the guestlist multiple times at the iconic club in London, Ministry Of Sound and so, I can go the backstage to meet, greet and networking with the other world famous DJs. Now, I can mix a lots of EDM genres such as House (Deep, Tech, Bass, Future), Techno, Trance, UK Garage, Dubstep, Future Bass, and Drum N' Bass. One day, I would love to be an international DJ.
