David is a mixture of romantic melodies on drugs, rocking beats à la parisienne, and some unreasonable sounds to turn you on. Raised on 80s funk and hip hop from his very urban childhood, but also on rock & roll, he caught the rave virus in 1993 under the unfluence of Francesco Farfa, Derrick May, Sven Vath and Laurent Garnier. Always involved in creating, composing, mixing and turntablising, he began his production career with the Boogabaloo ep on Sismic, soon followed by his remix of Brett Johnson for the Brique Rouge imprint. He also produces with Dan Ghenacia under the moniker U&I.

In 2005 he delivered his first floorfiller, Free Kit, released on Freakn Chic, Dan Ghenacias label (Dan, resident dj at DC10 in Ibiza, voted best club of the year by Dj Mag). Sven Vath, owner of Cocoon, and DC10s twister too, asked David for a remix of Oliver Koletski. As David is sending him back a demo cd with the remix, it will them become a Cocoon release. Already licenced by Luke Slater, Tiga, John Digweed, Ralph Lawson.

As a deejay, he has toured as one of the Trip Do Brasil residents, and played in popular clubs in Paris as Rex Club, Queen, Bataclan and Zebre but also at Sfinks Festival (Antwerpen), Memphis (Helsinski), D Club (Lausanne), La Marquise (Lyon), Trolley (Marseille), Nitro (Montpellier), Studio88 (Aix), where he played with Marshall Jefferson, King Britt, Ashley Beedle, Mr Scruff, Stuart Patterson and Dee Nasty.
