I know that some people are keen to make me out as something of an ambassador – and sometimes a scapegoat – for acid techno culture. Fair enough but I’m not really into bigging myself or this scene up, or trying to spend my life defending it. It’s there, take it or leave it, an underground scene that thrives successfully under it’s own steam with negligible media coverage. As for the cult of the DJ, I spend my life debunking the myth of the “famous DJ”. I hate the fact that DJs are treated like rock stars. Sometimes they go out, play, go into the VIP room to show off for a bit and then get in their car and get driven home. When I play somewhere, I talk to people, I try to get on with them, and I have a good time. I always remember that I’m lucky to be doing what I do, and what I get out of it is far beyond what I can ever put in. Trips to Europe, South America, Israel and Australia are amazing perks and give me a real insight into different cultures; and I’ve made really good friends all over the world.

I love DJing. It’s my craft. I’m never satisfied with any of my sets though. I always think back to what I should have done differently. When I’m not DJing, I run labels. More of my time seems to be spent running labels and less of my time is spent on DJing! Most of time I’m issuing invoices, doing accounting paperwork and running around looking after them all. It’s not all rock and roll…
