Beat Creator, Music producer

Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?

A: In 2008, I made music for a gymnastic from Egypt and she went to the Olympic Games with it. The proces was incredible because the arrangement of the song and building the floor routine went hand-in-hand. Every move she made on the floor was in different ways supported by the music and vice versa.

A: Beats and full productions
