1.How would you describe your music style?

To be honest, I couldn’t really tell what style it is. I would say it’s House but with all those categories and fusions of music nowadays, I don’t really want to go deeper into that. People sometimes ripping music apart and try to identify it by the sound of a Kick drum or a Hi hat (hehehe). My opinion is ”It is what it is” and either you like it or not. Very simple!

2. What can we expect from your upcoming release on Blitz?

Good question. I don’t wanna set expectations to high. Usually the listeners should decide if it meets their expectations or not. But you can expect two deep house tracks (Oops, I am categorizing), rather DJ tools plus a remix of Oliver Deutschmann’s “For Those About To Dub”. So I think its gonna be a nice release and hopefully usable for some DJs out there.

3.At a time when many electronic producers work out of Germany. Why did you prefer to live in the UK?

People ask me that question a lot. There was actually no special reason for it. I always had a close connection to the UK through some close friends, and in 2003 I’ve got a job offer out there. So I gave it a chance. Also I think you don’t have to live in a certain city (no names) to make electronic music. I think there is a lot of this “hype” thing going on and I personally don’t believe in it, as a famous Hip Hop Band once stated as well(hehehe).

4. Which musician you can say changed your life?

I’m not sure if any musician changed my life, but I must say since I bought my first Kraftwerk “The Robots” release, when I was 6 years old, I always was fascinated about electronic music and sounds.

5.What are your favorite three tracks at the moment?

Joel Alter - Jungle Fever(Room With A View)

Andomat 3000 - Lee Style (Diynamic)

Yakine - Maissade (Supplement Facts)
