Do you want to continue doing this as a
profession? Or is this a plain hobby?
Actually DJing is only a hobby for me but if I have
the chance I do it professionally… why not.
How do you combat loud music? What
does your Ear-Doctor advise you?
This is indeed a critical issue, but
fortunately, I've got no problems . I
know some colleagues who have
problems , even if they do not admit
it … haha. :D If one is exposed every
weekend to loud music, that's a
burden for the ears . That's why I can
deal well with this issue and I bought
a specially fitted hearing protection
for musicians . This works quite well.
It reduces the volume but the sound
does not change. But sometimes it is
enough even to turn the monitor box
quieter or to increase the volume
during the transition .

Any famous DJ you admire?
Hmm I think my favorite DJ is from Germany and his
name is Eskei83. His skills are awesome.
What music do you enjoy playing?
My main-genre is black music. This is the type of
music I play most of the time thus I 'm booked
most of the time. But if it is possible, I play
sometimes other genres . For example, charts or
electronic music . I like this, because it's a nice
variety of HipHop music . It is also challenging
when you have to switch between genres
What are the exciting moments you enjoy
as a DJ?
I think every moment i am on stage and playing
my set is exciting for me. I enjoy it when I play my
music and the people celebrating it . That's the
best feedback you can get.
Are there moments that can be
annoying when you are working
in a club?
Actually, there haven't been any bad
incidents yet . Of course, it
sometimes happens that someone
drunk wants to hear a song and
relentlessly trying to impose on you
to play even if it does not fit. But this
is also one of the skills of the DJ to
handle the situation. Technical
problems are annoying too, but
fortunately this happen very rarely .
