Founder and resident of queer Spotlight party in Los Angeles. Club Toilet Crew in Detroit. Based in Berlin.
You know it when you hear him play: that infectious groove is instantly recognizable, at home in both dark warehouses and in the open sunshine.
While he is a regular at Panorama Bar (and Snax), Cocktail d’Amore, Glastonbury, and Coachella, his mainstay is a party of his own creation - Spotlight - which celebrates and reclaims the queer roots of house, techno, disco, and other forms of dance music.
