I am currently focused on setting up my new music consultancy business providing in-store soundtracks, music branding and synching for tv and advertising. I am currently programming a world music soundtrack for a large (80 stores) adventure clothing company here in Spain.

Host of a weekly radio show which could best be described as where music of black origin and global grooves meet the techno future. The show is broadcast in Barcelona, Tenerife and Berlin and is available in on-line stations in France and Italy. The podcast of the show currently receives 6000 downloads a month.

I also moonlight as a music journalist, writing album reviews for 3 English language magazines in Barcelona and Valencia with a combined monthly print run of 75,000 as well as the Fly Global Music and Mundo Vibe websites.

I am also a long time club dj mixing music of black origin and global grooves with the latest cutting edge electronic fusions.
