1. One of your trax is called Raised by Computers...were you actually raised by computers?

I wasn't necessarily raised by them (my mum did a fine job thanks!) but in high school while a lot of my friends were out partying or going to the beach (I grew up on the coast) or whatever it was they did I was most likely on my computer making music. And now in my 20's it seems everyone is attached to their computers...


2. You won the Pioneer ProDJ search in 2007 and now the Remix comp run by Bush Records and myDJspace.com in 2009. Whats your secret?
Witchcraft. 


3. How did the work with Deadmau5 come about?
Play Records, which was the label that released a lot of Deadmau5's stuff was the first label that I released an EP on so when his stuff was up for remix they offered me to have a go. 


4. What artists and bands are you influenced by?
Everything and anything I listen to that I really like. It could be anything from the Beatles to Format:B or something. I don't just make dance music, I was in a band for a while and I also have some side projects that are more electronica

5. Do you have plans to go O/S? If so were will you head and why?
Yeah one day for sure, I went to the UK when I was 19 and did work experience at a label and made some valuable contacts (that's how I got signed to Play Records) so I would defiantly like to go back and meet more people and try to get some gigs. I guess I'd like to go back to the UK or Europe somewhere.

6. What releases have you done this year?
This year a few EP's were released including Creep on Domina Productions, Fish and Sex, which were remixes of some of the first tracks I released on Play Digital and Monkey on Ho-Ju. I also did a few remixes including Bob Marley's 'Mr Brown' and Pablo Decoder's 'Blow'. 


7. Tell us about your set up? What programs do you use to produce your mad tracks?
I just got a new Macbook pro and use Ableton. I used to have more programs (including Acid and Fruity Loops) and plug ins on my PC. I also have a few other toys including my Microkorg and MC 505 and a friends Juno.

8. What's your fave club in Australia?
I don't think I've been to enough to pick a fave. But I always enjoy playing at Revolver in Melbs. 


9. What international party would you love to play at one day?
Any! I think I'd just be so excited to be going O/S to play!
