Are there other endeavors you go into aside from djing? Aside from djing I also perform as a singer on special events if invited. I also do MC on various occasions. But it’s once in a while.

How do you balance your time between regular work and djing? I am a full time DJ. My shift is always at night starting from 6PM till 4AM as the case may be. If I have other activities, say, live performance then I take permission from my work place and the standby DJ will take care of things.

Do you believe in seducing the crowd? Yes I believe in seducing the crowd, because  as a DJ, my job is to make the guest around to feel the music, to shake their body, to forget about their worries and enjoy the moment because thats what they came for.

What's an effective song or music? You do not need a great voice or even the ability to carry a tune to make an effective song. What you need is to know how to start and end any song. Mix some new songs with some old favorites then watch the reaction of the crowd. If positive then the song is effective and if negative you have to change as fast as you can.

What's the best thing about being a DJ? Being a DJ exposes me to the crowd. I meet new people everyday and make new friends. It also updates me with the latest songs on the chat and widens my knowledge in the musical world and as a composer.

Summarize your accomplishments as an artist. As an artist I have accomplished few things because I believe i still have lot to do. But at the moment I have recorded 3 different albums here in the Philippines. It’s all gospel hip hop songs and one love song. I was also featured in the movie Legend of Bruce lee in Shanghai, China and performed live in China during the launching of Beijing Olympics. I have mixed at MVP club Guangzhou, China, 3D Harmony Club Singapore, JAMTC Superclub Abuja, Nigeria, and many more.

When you're performing, is there a conscious effort to inspire people? Yeah there is this burning desire inside me to inspire people. When I perform I feel good to see people react positively to my performance. Then I tell myself keep it up man.

What do you think is the best song that best defines your life now? Hero by Mariah Carey.
