Just being surrounded by musicians at ICMP was such a cool experience, we all had the same goals and dreams. I would go home after every day super inspired and excited about the future."

His latest industry accolade includes Italian band Psicologi's track,'Guerra E Pace' , now officially going gold and platinum in Italy.
