01. Talk to us about your artist life.
It´s like breathing, you do it, you don´t know how, and 80% of the time is just dealing with the other stuff around, so the team works hard to make this 20% optimal! it´s just a mission, i have, in this life, to go through the journey, as an artist.
02. Tell us in which clubs your are presently working.
A lot of them! it´s different every week, except a few residencies in Zurich, Barcelona and soon for Sven Vath´s new club in Frankfurt. i always select small and big places, so i can defend small structures like Klick in Hamburg and give the chance to a lot more people to see me in big clubs, where in consequence, i am paid a proper fee.
03. Describe your sound.
This i can´t. hybrid dance animal, with a techno spine, but in constant mutation... it´s dark and sunny at the same time.
04. Which is your approach with internet ?
A great tool, mostly for e-mails as i write a lot to friends. Faster than the post, even if i keep on writing funny letters. It´s also a great data base, like on my website, a window in the world where i can spread some extra personal touch. and i can find things i never thought i would find!
05. What do you think about the impact of new tecnologies on djs and clubs ?
It´s great just to have the choice. if it makes you happy and brings more fun to you, that´s worth it. but technology never means quality. it has to bring something special to what already exists. In my case, i still work with only 2 turntables, as a 3rd one or effects won´t make me play better. I just love this new generation of cd players and the mixers with effects where i can plug my microphone in, and sing over the records.
06. What is your thought about the evolution of house music ?
The best is i don´t know where it´s going. i am not interested to know, it´s so much more exciting this way!
07. Are you working on music productions now ?
I am only promoting the album. It´s exhausting, but i meet very smart journalists and people in nice places. I have this electric indigo remix to finish though...
08. What are your next programs (dates, collaborations and clubs) ?
Oh, you have to check that on my website... i don´t even know all the dates, but i have great summer festivals in Europe, cool clubs, and a super nice us tour in july. Then i will fly to Ibiza and join Sven Vath at Amnesia.
09. In which club do you want to play where you haven't been yet ?
I would love to play at Robert Johnson in Frankfurt, the club of Ata and Heiko from playhouse, but it never happened for some reason. I also wanted to go to Fabric in London , but i finally go there in may for my album release, with Andrew Weatherall. and why not, going to Siberia and Jakarta , where i recently got an offer...
10. List for us your tree favorite records of all times ?
Klf hill out artificial intelligence volume 1 Depeche mode - Violator
11. Which has been the most gourgeous plase where yuo have played ?
In Brasil , a rave on the port of Rio.
12. Tell us your most favorite emotional moments while you were working
As a dj, sonar last year, when i presented my radio compilation with mental groove on day time... as it´s a very intimate project, we all managed to live a total intense moment on deep deep music, not dancefloor at all, but it was pure happiness, even if i was too nervous to enjoy 100%...
13. How is yours relation wich clubbers ?
Pretty intense most of the time, probably very sensual too. I give so much love in what i do. It´s a strong balance between this zen athmosphere i need behind the decks, with the chaos on the dance floor! i respect them so much, for listening to me, for making me eat every day too, and for following my crazy selection sometimes.
