THE MIGRATION OF TECH HOUSE — FROM SOUTH LONDON BASEMENTS TO ROMANIAN TEMPLES

THE UNTOLD MIGRATION OF TECH HOUSE Tech House is one of the only genres I’ve ever seen where the actual creators never bothered to create a myth.No grand claims.No polished documentary talking heads.No “we invented this” nonsense. Just South London heads, buried in speakers and late-night sessions, caring more about the room than their résumés. The video captures the timeline, but it doesn’t show what it felt like to be around that energy — to watch something...

Why Most Artists Give Up (And How You Don’t Have To)

At first, that’s where all your energy goes. You spend months, maybe years, learning your gear, refining your style, discovering your voice. And then you hit a wall. Because even though you’ve got the skills now, the traction just… isn’t there. You’ve made the thing,...

Doing is Better Than Thinking

While I write a lot here about DJ mental health and coaching ideas, there’s something far more effective than reading and thinking. It’s DOING. I met with my friend DG yesterday. He started DJing at eight years old, even playing at school discos. While fully plugged into his passion, he jokingly says the other boys got the girls. A great example of how DJing can be a peripheral and unusual thing to do—one that takes a...

How I Approach DJing Like a Screenwriter

In DJing, as in storytelling, structure is everything. A great set isn’t just a random collection of tracks—it’s an emotional journey. Like a screenwriter shaping a film, a DJ crafts a narrative, taking the listener on a ride that unfolds in distinct acts. But unlike a writer, who starts with a blank page, a DJ is often stepping into an ongoing story—picking up from the previous DJ’s energy and improvising while still keeping a...

Organic House

What is Organic House?

For me, Organic House isn’t just a genre of music—it’s a gentle and emotional version of House Music with a lower tempo and a lot of feeling. As a DJ and producer, I’m constantly drawn to its warm, earthy sounds that somehow feel modern and timeless. It’s the perfect balance of rhythm, melody, and atmosphere, creating moments that stick with you long after the music fades. What Does Organic House Sound Like? Organic House has this magic...

Why? Because they focus on you, not your audience.Marketers know this well: it’s not enough to talk about your excitement for a product. The real win is showing...
