KS ACI D JAC What’s the track that reminds you of your childhood? Any pop, synth pop, indie pop or rap tracks from the 80’s. “Little Red Corvette” by Prince, “How Soon Is Now” by The Smiths, “Take On Me” by A-Ha, “Temptation” by New Order and “Fight The Power” by Public Enemy. What was the first record that you ever bought? De La Soul – 3 Feet High and Rising ... on cassette of course.    What’s the most embarrassing record in your collection? “When Will I Be Famous?” by Bros. What’s the record that’s guaranteed to make you cry? I don’t cry. Ever.    What’s an album that you’re currently into? Machinedrum - “Vapor City” & “Little Black Book” by Hot Since 82 have been on repeat in my car for months now. What’s the most valuable record in your collection? I don’t know if i have a most valuable record. My record collection is valuable to me. I have a lot of first press soul, jazz & hip hop records that have cost me a lot to get over the years double gatefold stuff, all the Sugarhill records. Also all my disco records I’d hate to have to replace. “Take Your Time (Do It Right)” by SOS Band and Patrice Rushen “Forget Me Nots”. Then there’s ghetto, drum N bass & techno records i probably couldn’t replace... Trax, Metalheadz and Gigolo records. I’m not sure if they’ve held value but id definitely hate to lose any of them…    What is your all-time favorite track? Anything from Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” album. 112 djmag.com.au djmag.com.au 113
