8. If you do not work on music, what do you do ?
Studying of course, haha. or NOT ;p
I’ve done swimming competition. First provincial then Belgium and then at European level.
I was very good at this sport but I had to stop swimming by a knee injury.
I had need two years to recover, I have to learn walking again.
Now I give swim lessons to little children and teenagers who do swimming competition.

9. If It is not secret please tell us about your plans for the future?
Haha, I will tell it with pleasure. I am very interested in geography and history.
I will probably studying this next year. And after my studies we’ll see…
The problem then is that I will have a lot of work for my college, but I will keep updated of music.
So I’m thinking to start a music blog ‘Tasty Beatblog’ or something like that.
Because I will have to be less with making mixtapes and dj’ing on gigs.
And I think that a music blog is a good way to get,stay popular on soundcloud and updated of new music.
