You have releases on Lost & Found, New State Music, Kompakt and more... What inspires you when producing music?
I can be inspired by many things, it can be a movie I saw, new or old songs i hear, people I meet or DJ sets I discover... I found lately that one of the most inspiring things for me is just take to some time off in a magic place, watching the sea, clear mind always helps me to set up my thoughts and get focused regarding creating.
You co-own PlattenBank Records, what are the aims of the label?
Plattenbank is my label in the last 12 years, it became our life project. We are planning every move with the label and always trying to move forward with our sound and music. One of our goals is to give a platform for artists, just by their music and not by their success or profile. For us music comes first and it always feels good to discover new pearls.
What advice do you have for aspiring DJs & producers?
Avoid following trends, they all have a short life time and they will end at some point . Be loyal to your true love and music style, and always keep what you are doing exciting.
Future plans?
I have some very special releases that i can’t talk about at the moment because it’s not announced yet, for sure one of them will be on Plattenbank. I have very exciting shows coming up: Australia tour, Tulum with Digweed, Miami, Panama on NYE, Budapest & more
Any last words?
Mauritius you got a new friend, i fall in love with your island and we will meet again for sure.
