Who are you?

I am the Lord of Darkness.

What do you sound like?

I sound like a mashup of everything I like. I don’t take that genre stuff too seriously; I roll as I feel and make music that I wanna hear.

Why should we listen to you?

‘Cause I’m different. No, I think I make some pretty serious music: dancefloor heavy tracks that you can bang out to anywhere. I also think that I really do have a unique approach to the music ’cause of my ample taste for different kinds of shit.

What have you released so far? What else have you got coming out in the near future?

I had a bunch of releases already on various labels and on my own imprint Sonic District. You can check it all out on my SoundCloud page – there are a bunch of links to my releases and some free music via Do Androids Dance… I’ve got some releases lined up on Top Billin, Wtf Is Swag and BiggBoss too. I’m also planning to start pushing vinyl through my own label in 2015, make it all more legit. Or maybe I’ll just start giving away music, I don’t know. I mean, who knows?

What song sums you up? Why?

Salem – ‘King Night’. Because I’m the Lord of Darkness.

What or who is your biggest influence and why?

My biggest influence? I really don’t know the answer to this question. I think that everything around me influences what I do. I would say life in general. It sets the vibe to my days and as I make music I purely flow all really raw and let the sound shape itself.

Where can we hear your music?

On SoundCloud.

Where will you be in five years’ time?

In Philly, married with children, fat as fuck.

Tell us an interesting fact about yourself.

I love death metal. Seriously.
