He is the latest talent to secure a place on PRS for Music and Sony/ATV Music Publishing’s annual Dance Music Songwriting Camp, taking place 14-15 October in Amsterdam, in the lead up to Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE).

Returning for its third consecutive year, PRS for Music and Sony/ATV’s Dance Music Songwriting Camp, continues to attract the highest calibre talent from across Europe. Previous attendees include Kelli-Leigh, One Bit, and DJ S.K.T.

Hundreds of competition entries were judged on the ability to create music of extremely high quality that integrates vocal-driven electronic/dance music, alongside the ability to demonstrate excellent collaborative abilities and technical competence in a studio environment.
