Artist description I started out with composing classical pieces. Then discovered Trance and got into the electronic music scene. Since then, I've been mixin' up my own original trance, drum n bass, and later into breakbeats. I continue making classical music, I can never start to dislike the trueness of the classical genre.

Affinity has unexpected turns here and there. One would think this piece was from a cathedral church, and yet Dj Maven has turned it into something enjoyable for the new millenium's audience to listen to. As one listens to music, you can almost feel the waves of his piece engulf you. The perfect way to describe this piece with are with waves. In the climax, one can most definitely feel the waves as beats clash to create this impressive piece. Dj maven meshes a classical felt music with the new beats of today to create this masterpiece.
