Singing all day and listening to artists as Jean-Michelle Jarre and Vangelis f.e. music became more and more part of his life.
Interested in making mixes, remixes he listened every week to Ben Liebrand, a pioneer in DJ-world. After years of just listening music, partying and singing songs in the house just as a hobby , he started making mixes and remixes .
In 2004 it became more and more his thing and people started to know his mixes and remixes he posted all over the internet with different genres as house,trance,club under his alias "DJ Sexa".
But eventhough music from Paul Kalkbrenner was favorit ..the non-commercial stuf was so mind-exploring and in 2010 he started to make his own tracks as he got inspired as he watched Deadmau5 making some music as he was on Ustream-cam.
It brought him tracks as "Meow Meow" ( inspired on that Deadmau5 show with his cat Professor Meowingtons) and Luna 6, a spacy track that leads you beyond any universum.
These tracks were first made under the alias DJ Sexa , but because of it's non-commercial sounds he decided to make electronica sounds under a new brand alias "A.F.J.Project".
Christmas 2010 at 25 December his first album was ready and the main thing he wants is to share it with the whole world.

A.F.J.Project Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Non ablo tu lingua ma tre diverse
Il talento paga ci puoi scommettere
Ma se non ti impegni ci vai a perdere
Sopra alla base bro é Tokyo Drift
Traccio la traccia mia e del mio team
Da quei provinciali alla Champions League
Ci stanno puntando sulla mia win
C-Bud, stavo a Poplar in England
C-Bud, macchinate di weeda
C-Bud, non sti figli di
Mary Jane calma i miei fa che non partano ancora
Lemon Haze dans la sacoche il mio sleró ci sta sopra, okay
Vogliono distrarmi ma non posson farlo bæ
Percorso kilometri per farmi i cazzi miei ho
Ora mi sento blessed, non voglio stare in stress
Collami solo per fare cash
Tokyo got me drifting
Won't catch me slipping
Got a Need for the Speed
I've been stopped for smoking weed (smoking weed)
But officer please don't put your hand on me (no hands on me)
Unless you wanna come and catch a felony (huh)
Tokyo got me drifting (no way)
Won't catch me slipping
Got a Need for the Speed
I've been stopped for smoking weed (smoking weed)
But officer please don't put your hand on me (no hands on me)
Unless you wanna come and catch a felony
Know me i talk the shit that I want
You just talk shit and you stunt
I am a big dog, you're a runt
I got a big click you're a (woop)
And I don't roll with a pagan
I can smell the scent that you faking
Then you won't show up cuz you hating
When the album come then you rating?
And it's like yo
How many fake rappers wanna rap today?
But deep down they know that rap is fake
They got ghost writer on a labels pay
But then they claim to the world that their raps are great
But there ain't no weight so they live in shame
Sold their souls just to play the game
And then they say i'm that hooked to the mary jane
But I ain't gonna quit till you learn my name because
Tokyo got me drifting
Won't catch me slipping
Got a Need for the Speed
I've been stopped for smoking weed (smoking weed)
But officer please don't put your hand on me (no hands on me)
Unless you wanna come and catch a felony (huh)
Tokyo got me drifting (no way)
Won't catch me slipping
Got a Need for the Speed
I've been stopped for smoking weed (smoking weed)
But officer please don't put your hand on me (no hands on me)
Unless you wanna come and catch a felony
The song "Drift" by A.F.J.Project talks about the artist's mission for the day which involves observing everything, while drifting through a turn with Lil Peep playing in the background. He changes lanes indicating that it's time for some change, but his mind and memories take him to a different place. He dreams of things like "e three four," which refers to an S-Class Mercedes. He likens himself to a Human Boeing and feels the need for speed to escape from what's coming back to him. He enjoys the night scene, the orange lights reflecting on the windows, as he moves on to the next destination.
Throughout the verses, the artist reminisces about different places he's been to or would love to go. He names Tri-city, where he finds peace watching the sea and sand, and recalls the times when he slept for a long time but probably not in this era. He hears the sirens and knows that he's in Warsaw, but he's having a good time, Mustangs driving by and the basse vibrating from the singers. Further, he onboard a ship, admiring the sight of the waves as they hit the shore, and the lighthouse signalling that everything is alright. He loves the sea and considers it to be the end of the world.
Overall, the song has an upbeat rhythm, and the lyrics take the listener on a journey through different places, feelings and emotions. The artist seems to search for something meaningful as he moves from place to place, finding solace in different things yet wanting to escape from what's coming back to him. It's a story about searching for what's important and finding a way forward.
