What do you like most about djing ?

I love to see people dancin’, enjoyin’… I have fun when they have fun…

Where do you think djing will be in the Future ?

I believe that everyone will definitively move to digital files in a few years. It doesn’t matter what’s the source you’re playing from… I think what really counts is the music you play ! playing with vinyls, cds, from my computer on my bass guitar is the same for me…
