As a founding member & producer of Orlando-based Hip Hop group, Solillaquists of Sound, & electro-Soul duo, Chakra Khan, DiViNCi first gained notoriety by using multiple drum machines in ways the world had never seen before. His frenetic finger drumming, sonic dynamism & innovative use of music technology have led to stage & studio collaborations with such artists as Ms. Lauryn Hill, Nas, Victor Wooten, MF DOOM, Doug Wimbish & El-P (Run The Jewels).

In addition to his recent work on Ms. Hill’s latest single & her collaboration w/ Pusha T & Kanye West, he is currently releasing 52 weekly singles with new artist, girlsafterknives.

In almost any industry, the primary roadblock for people is not a lack of access to acquiring skills or technical ability, but the lack of knowledge of how to sustain their craft consistently and enjoy the process along the way. To address this, DiViNCi, founder of Studio Sensei, has combined the technical and nontechnical into a blueprint to create holistic change. Influenced by his lifelong practice of both the creative & martial arts, DiViNCi has developed The Sustainable Practice method; a pragmatic approach to creative wellness & intuitive literacy. With it, he helps his students achieve new levels of success & ability while maintaining or even improving their physical, mental and emotional health.

As a public speaker, DiViNCi enjoys sharing his passion for creativity & process with those looking to develop not only their craft, but their careers as well. His constant drive for innovation has led him to work closely with various companies in the development of their products. Most notably is his work with Akai Professional in helping to develop the MPC Renaissance, Studio & MPC5000. In addition, his recent adoption of Ableton products has garnered the attention of the company and has led to multiple Ableton workshops & panel discussions.
