How has your change been since you started your music career?
My change has been constant without losing roots or at least that's what I think, I have definitely experimented with different things and interests over time which has given me a sound that I consider very personal, of course learning has marked my music, any producer will tell you that their first tracks are pretty bad haha the same I think of mine, I think my change has been very significant both in musical and personal, experiences, experiences are forging your ways of seeing the world and express yourself.

Tell me about your 7 moon project, what is it?
7 Moons is a project I'm very fond of, it's very expressive, usually I write 7 Moons music when I'm going through sentimental problems but it always helps me to get out the bad times and turn it into something good and digestible, I started with this project a long time ago with the name of fractal Moon (yes, I like the moon) and then change the name, although I write little of 7 Moons I do not think I'll ever finish, currently has just released an album with my friends and Post-Modern Music label called "Celestial Transformation" is an album that was made over several years and I decided to take it to share.
