As a kid who grow up whit a Dad who was ones a rock an roll icon, music was not only in his blood but in his everyday life.

Few years later he moves to the US for collage education and started exploring the music scene. He fell in love with vinyls and started learning scratching to upgrade his technique for the upcoming music scene that he was about to emburge on. One summer when he came back for the holidays and made a remix of well known Serbian rapper Coby, turning it into a moombahtone hit that become so popular that the rapper preformed with the remix instead of the original rap song. That one remix made him a name in the Balkans. That is why shortly after he got offers to do music beats and mastering for a few rappers in the Balkans. Going back to USA he signed a 5 year contract with Sam Cappes productions. That contract gave him the opportunity to play at the biggest cubs in the States such as The Mid , club Prysm, Sound-bar in Chicago and club Heart, El Patio and others in Miami, etc. From 2018 to 2023 he started preforming as MIAMIDEPORTED specialising in minimal/deep tech and break beat and hypnotic techno depending on type of the party.
