Hi, my name is David and I am a professional guitarist, songwriter and a beatmaker. I play both classical and electric guitar, piano, drums, and percussions. My favorite genres are pop, soul, RnB, latin, and hip-hop. I am involved with music on a daily basis, practically my whole life evolves around it. Can't wait to make something great together!

I just finished my studies of classical guitar in Brno, Czech Republic, and I am free to dedicate all my time to creating music, and playing concerts. I am mostly known as a guitar player, people recognize me because of my flamenco style of playing, which is unique in Slovakia.

I love to create songs and beats that are mostly pop, latin, soul, and hip-hop. I also play electric guitar, my inspiration is John Mayer, Tom Misch, and Jimmy Hendricks. I enjoy playing solos and funky riffs.

  • Nylon guitarFeb 25, 2021

    Today I delivered an arrangement played with nylon strings guitar. I tuned strings one tone deeper, so when I played E minor, sounded D minor. I recorded some gypsy piece and it was incredible how it sounded. My client said he was crying of happiness while listening to the preview. It was wonderful feeling?

  • New day new challengeFeb 25, 2021
