Q. Keenan, as one of SA's popular DJs, your music and sets often define the atmosphere of an event. How would you describe your approach to crafting the perfect playlist?

• Knowing your crowd is everything; you need to be prepared for anything - having a wide variety of music is vital, obviously still sticking to what you enjoy and pleasing the crowd. Coming an hour early before your set time is crucial. Scope the vibes & rock the set!

Q. Your performances are often described as having an electrifying and infectious energy. Could you share some techniques that keep the crowd grooving all night?

• Always be prepared for anything. Having the singalongs and the latest TIK-TOK bangers is essential to your crowd. Take the leap of faith with a specific track. You never know what might happen.

Q. Because ellesse enjoys blending style and music, how would you incorporate the two into your personal style and set?

• Your style is vital to everything you are as a Brand/person; having a top-tier outfit & having a spectacular set go hand-in-hand. You'll be remembered for your music & your style! Double Whammy & ellesse makes it so easy with their collection.

Q. What would you say has influenced you most as a DJ, and how does that affect your sound and style as a DJ?

• Friends, close family, it wouldn't be possible without them - they're my guidance. As well as the fans! Without them, nothing would be possible.

Q. Summer is a playful and upbeat season, often inspiring joy, laughter and fun. How will your 'Sounds of Summer' tie into the season while capturing the essence of the ellesse brand?

• My set has a nice variety of Throwbacks to some new hitters! Like ellesse, it has that timeless feel but can keep up with the latest trends.
