I have also realised the most essential importance of idealising my production is to consistently get my tracks on international House music charts having them continuously stream and maintain a place in this market.This is the most important task for Mr. Progressive right now; to build recognition amongst the most successful artists in this genre so that collaborations, hook ups with labels and more and more festival shows become possible. This is my main motivation and ambition right now.
He said "Music is a great way to express myself and my emotions. It allows me to create something unique and personal that reflects my own style and personality. As an artist I love to experiment. Melodic and energetic sounds always find their way in my music. I love mixing this with groovy and wide, growling bass lines to beautiful melodies. Lately I have produced a variety of sounds like groovy house, melodic techno, big room/progressive house . I am constantly looking for inspiration and to bring about changes in my music.In past five years I have created a space for myself in the electronic dance music scene and have given a lot to this genre by making more than 200 tracks.
