My two main strengths as a DJ are.
(A) To celebrate the diversity of the floor and sublimate it with music.
(B) To repeatedly break and revitalise gay club traditions and offer a club culture that connects to the future.
Based on over 20 years of experience in gay club culture. The total number of parties played exceeds 500. More and more bookings are coming from major national and international cities.
I work mainly on the main stages of large and small clubs and festivals, but also in a wide range of darkrooms, lounges and bars.
I am available for a variety of times including front acts, peak times, close and long sets.
While having a strong message about their own artistic identity, policies and themes, their floor-building skills are backed up by a wide range of skills and judgement, and are widely trusted by club novices, senior members and producers alike. He retains his own artistic, policy and thematic messages while delivering maximum benefit to customers and other stakeholders.
Through years of on-the-ground activities, he can also provide services such as tradition carrying activities, concept, site building, recruitment, logo creation and submission, design services for print and digital flyers, planning and implementation of advertising strategies, brand image consultation and direction, and project management. We can do this. We also want to promote our appeal as a reliable and trustworthy presence. This helps to secure offers that lead to many bookings.
In addition, we are planning six parties by 2025, one of which has been running for almost a decade and is a popular party. （In the same year, we launched two new gigs, concept parties in two new niches, which have been well received. In the future, he plans to use his experience with medium-sized parties to produce challenging global parties in larger clubs, supporting the gay club culture scene from behind the scenes as a DJ, producer and director.
