1st record you ever bought?
Well… Actually I don’t remember really well but I’m sure one of the first (if it not the first) records I bought was “TRIBE 'N' TRANCE”, produced by Francesco Farfa and published on Plastic Fantastic.
Favourite track you have made?
This is a really difficult question. I’ve produced different kinds of tracks so it depends on the mood and on what I'm experiencing in that moment. I’ll give you just two titles of tracks: World Connection (Original mix) & Irrational (Original Mix)
Favourite kit for making music?
I like to use analog machines but also VST. I’m not a purist so sometimes I use both to produce a track. Sometimes I produce a track without analog synths or drum machines, like otherwise sometimes I produce tracks without VST. Recently I’m using more instruments from Roland, Moog, Electron and Korg. I love the "live" and sometimes random touch they can add to a track.
Your Dream Line up (self included)
There are too many artists I’d love to play with for the first time, also lots of artists I’d love to play with again. My dream lineup is: Jeff Mills, Richie Hawtin, Joseph Capriati, Chris Liebing, Function, Dubfire, Danny Tenaglia, Ben Klock, Marcel Dettmann, Adam Beyer, Cari Lekebusch, Alexi Delano, Len Faki, Joel Mull, Donato Dozzy, Scuba, Speedy J, Tom Hades, Jonas Kopp, Ralf, Dustin Zahn
Note: this is for my dream event I would love to see here in Japan on the peak of Fuji Mountain. Each DJ would play one track in a continuous B2B from dusk till the morning sunrise (if you can dream, why don't dream BIG?).
If you had to DJ a 3hr set of a different Genre what would it be?
I would like to explore the boundaries of Ambient music.

One sentence that defines house and techno music?
It's tough to describe such important kind of music genre(s) with only one sentence. For me Techno is a lifestyle and it goes beyond the dance floor. With House & Techno music DJs, musicians and clubbers are all on the same level: we are all in front of the speakers creating our reality.
