For Stankisswell, the emotional response and experience behind music are central to his creative process. Whether performing behind the decks or working in the studio, his intention is to create a lasting impression, encouraging listeners to connect with his sound and become immersed in the experience.

As his discography continues to grow, each production introduces a different element to his sound while maintaining the distinctive qualities that define the Stankisswell identity.
His musical foundations also come from the sounds that surrounded him growing up, particularly the music in his mother's collection, which helped shape his early appreciation for different cultures and genres. Artists such as Billy Idol and Michael Jackson played an important role in his musical influences, alongside an early fascination with Rock music and his own experience playing the drums. These formative experiences gave him a broad understanding of music from an early age. Later, artists like Martin Garrix and Skrillex introduced him to the possibilities of Electronic Music, opening the door to a wider range of influences that continue to inform his creative direction as he develops his own place within the genre.
