| Introduction | Born in NY, raised in Paris, France, I grew up in between 2 cultures, French and American. This duality of origins transpired progressively in my music tastes and to this day I am just as attached to the emerging French house scene of the late 90's as to the Ny deep soulful house from the same era. Seeing NY legend David Morales rip the dancefloor at Pacha Ibiza in 1998 inspired me to get my first decks. After playing in venues such as Concorde Atlantique, a floating club on the river seine, Barramundi and Persing Hall, I moved back to the U.S. with my wife to be Rachel in 2005. Providence opened its arms to us and I am now enjoying a residency with Paris Grooves @ Tazza, spinning at local events such as the RISD Musuem, Sound Session, Nicole Romano Fashion Show and recently new member of the AfroSonic collective at the Providence Black Repertory. Also currently designing at Numark Industries in Cumberland. |
