We went to a Marco Carola party together here, Michael was very excited about that you know and after maybe a year he moved to NY.
NS: I came back to the underground scene for like the 2nd time you know. After rooming with Max and going to Marco Carola party, I was very impressed and inspired. We started to produce our 1st track Mothership, that was released on Nervous records then we decided to do serious things. After your 1st release I understand that you started releasing on a whole load of labels, you lot have a catalogue of releases, you’ve just been smashing them out.
