Q: You’re joining Pete Tong to play at his Pure Pacha nights in Ibiza this summer, are you looking forward to it? Totally! I always enjoy Pacha, and I always enjoy playing with Pete too. He's always the perfect host!
Q: Have you played with Pete at any other venues around the world this year? Well there's a lot of festivals we've both been at but often we play different stages or different times. Off the top of my head I think our last proper gig together would have been Space in Miami, during WMC. Q: Pure Pacha will celebrate its 4th successful year on the island this season, what do you think has made it such a success? Well as I play there each year I'm going to say it's down to the quality of the DJs! Q: What do you think about Jade Jagger teaming up with Pete to host the Global room with her Jezebel Parties? Will you be partying with her? I don't think she'd like partying with me too much, I'm such a big fan of her dad I'd be asking her questions about him all night long. She'd get sick of me. Q: Pacha is one of the most famous clubbing brands in the world, what is so special about playing at Pacha in Ibiza? The beautiful venue to start, and obviously the beautiful people who come and party. There 's great sound and attention to production and so on which makes for a great night for anyone. Q: Pacha has over 20 franchises worldwide from Barcelona to Buenos Aires and Majorca to Marrakech. What other Pacha clubs have you played at and did you enjoy it? I've played a few, Tel Aviv and Buenos Aires spring to mind as I played those quite a few times. Also in Hungary. I'm looking forward to playing Pacha new york later this year as well as I had great experiences at the other venues. Q: What can we expect from your set at Pure Pacha? I probably won't know until the night but possibly the usual mix of anything from deep house to techno. Q: Are you playing at any pre parties before you set at Pure Pacha? I'll probably be with Pete at his pre-party, get myself in the mood for the main event. Q: Where will we find you after your set? Do you have a favourite place where you like to continue partying? No. I'm usually straight to the hotel and get ready for my next flight! I get too tired these days and if I party too much then I risk messing things up at the next gig. Q: When it all gets a bit much, where is your favourite place to get away from it all and chilllout? Home!!! Nothing beats waking up in my own bed although I frequently wake up to hear the phone ringing and assume that it's the front desk trying to kick me out of my room! Q: Describe your perfect day in Ibiza… Well, as I'm quite allergic to sunlight it's difficult to have a perfect day! Generally I like wandering around, getting lost and doing plenty of shopping. Q: When was your first visit to Ibiza an what was it like? Not much fun really I'm afraid. I had no money and did three disastrous gigs and didn't get paid for them. It was quite stressful as I couldn't eat properly and therefore I didn't have a great first impression from a DJ sense. Q: And finally, what current projects are you working on? Do you have any productions or albums in the pipeline we can look forward too? There's bits and pieces. We're working on a remix of the new single by Bent, as well as putting the finishing touches to our next single too. Hopefully we'll have it done by the end of next year! (interview by IMD)
Danny Howells訪問 問：今年夏天你將與Pete Tong 在 Pure Pacha合作, 你期待嗎?
一定! 我一向享受在Pacha工作, 亦一直享受與 Pete Tong 合作，他的確是位完美的主持人!
問：除此之外，你今年與 Pete Tong 還有在世界各地的其他場地表演嗎 ?
我們倆均到過很多不同的音樂節，卻通常於不同舞臺或時間演出。我倆對上一次的正式同台演出是 WMC期間於邁阿密的Space。
問：Pure Pacha 將於本季慶祝四周年，你認為他們的成功之道是甚麼？
我每年都在那兒表演，所以我會說他們的成功之道是基於 Dj 的質素!
問：你對 Jade Jagger 與 Pete Tong 組成組合並在她的 Jezebel 派對 於 Global Room當主持有甚麼看法？你會跟她一起去派對嗎？
我想她不大會想和我一起去派對，由於她父親是我的偶像，我會一整晚都問她有關她爸爸的事情，她大概會受不了我。
問：Pacha 是世界上其中一個最著名的 Clubbing商標，在伊微沙島的Pacha 表演有何特別之處?
漂亮的場地加上美麗的客人。優質的音響設備以及對製作認真等等，為所有人提供美妙的一夜。
問：Pacha 於世界各地擁有超過二十個聯營經銷權，範圍廣泛，由巴塞隆納至布宜諾斯艾利斯(阿根廷首都) ，馬略卡及馬拉喀什，你曾在其他的Pacha俱樂部表演過並享受過程嗎？
以我記得，我曾在特拉維夫，匈牙利及布宜諾斯艾利斯表演過數次。由於我在Pacha其他的俱樂部都有過美好的回憶，我期待今年於紐約Pacha的表演。
問：對於你在 Pure Pacha的表演，我們可以有甚麼期望？
該晚前我大慨仍未能肯定，大多數會是如常般由 Deep House 至 Techno 的混音。
問：你會在 Pure Pacha 的表演前在任何其他派對演出嗎？
我或許會與Pete Tong 在他的 ”預備派對” 中表演，使我能為投入主場活動作好準備。
問：這次表演之後我們可以在哪裡找到你? 派對結束後有甚麼最喜歡去的地方嗎?
沒有，我通常會直返酒店並開始準備下一次的航程，再者，近來很容易感到疲倦，玩得太瘋有可能會把緊接的表演弄得一團糟。
問：當覺得一切來得有一點 “太多” 的時候，你最愛到甚麼地方紓緩放鬆?
家! 沒有任何事能勝過於能從家裡的床起床，雖然我通常是被電話響聲吵醒，並常以為是接待處打來要把我驅出酒店!
問：試形容你在伊微沙島最完美的一天。
這個…… 我對陽光頗為敏感，所以對我來說，在伊微沙島很難會出現這所謂 “完美的一天”! 我通常喜歡四處閒逛，”玩失蹤” 和瘋狂購物。
問：你第一次到伊微沙島是幾時? 行程是怎樣的?
恐怕不是一個怎麼愉快的經歷，我身無分文，幹了三個叫人慘不忍睹的表演並沒有收到任何薪水。由於我連一餐像樣的飯也吃不起，壓力還是蠻大的，因此 Dj 這份職業未能令我留下一個美好的第一印象。
問：最後，請問你們現在有甚麼正在進行的計劃？有沒有甚麼新作品或新專輯可以讓我們期待？
一切處於初部階段。我們正為 Beck的最新單曲進行混音，並開始為我們下一支新單曲進行後期工作，希望能於下年底前完成!
