He is a musician who enjoys all aspects of writing, production, engineering and arrangement of his own records.
His portfolio of approximately 250 releases/remixes features work for Tenampa Recordings, Re:FreshYourMind, Younan Music, Ready Mix Records and of course his own labels What Happens and Savoir Faire Musique. In the early days of his studio era, he also released as half part of Professional Losers, dubbed “the next big Danish housers” by iDJ Magazine after personally being asked to remix by dance music’s biggest superstar at the time Norman Cook (the track entered at #1 on the UK Buzz Chart).
