About Behind the Decks: In The Zone
When I’m behind the decks, it isn’t just about playing tracks; it’s about reading the room. I spend hours crate-digging for those specific minimal and techno grooves, so I can mix them live on 3 decks. If you book me, expect me to tweak the EQs and effects constantly to keep that energy shift feeling organic and locked in, from the first deep tech warm-up to the final closing track.
When I’m in the zone, the music dictates everything. My sets aren't just pressed play buttons; they are live, 3-deck mix journeys where I manipulate frequencies to match the room’s energy. Whether it’s a deep tech warm-up or a late-night acid techno session, my goal is the same: keeping the dancefloor moving without breaks.
I bring a refined, high-quality digital library built over ten years of crate-digging. If you’re looking to host an event that needs raw club energy, I handle the technical flow from start to finish.
A few things to know if we’re working together:
- Gear: I perform on standard club setups (2x Pioneer CDJ 2000 NXS2 or 3000 and 1x DJM 900 NXS2 Mixer).
- Sound: I don't just mix tracks; I use the mixer’s EQs and effects to craft the sound for your specific venue size.
- Scope: I cover everything from 90-minute signature sets to 4-hour extended night takeovers.
I’m based in Delhi but travel across India for gigs. If you want to bring that underground vibe to your space, get in touch and let’s make it happen. Aajao sare, let's get lost in the sound.
