I’m music producer, composer and musician. I choose to live in Philly because it’s an integration of a lot of different cultures.
How would you compare other places to Philly?
I like a lot of places I’ve been, but Philly has a piece of everywhere in it. Philly has some NYC speed, the taste of L.A, a homey vibe like Atlanta, the chill of Toronto and the food of Texas. When I land, I know where I am. I never feel bad coming back from a long trip.
What inspires you about Philly?
I get inspiration from the people. That’s where I feel it the most. There are people with some great taste here. I like to always try and challenge the person checking out what I do. I make music for me and for people to enjoy. It is a great feeling to see someone dancing to something that came out of my brain. I think about that all the time.
How would you describe Philly to someone who has never been here?
It’s a big city-but not like New York. It’s like a small town , but more open-minded and mixed up. Great art and artists, tons of food. A nightlife that includes everything from high-class clubs to crazy house parties, and so much history it could keep you occupied for days.
What do you think is the city’s greatest asset?
I think Philly is the breeding ground for a lot talent. If you craft something here and take it somewhere else, you have already been through a high level of competition.
