There are things I like, there are things I strongly dislike. In my DJ sets and in my production I just gravitate towards what I like.

Then the whole challenge is what do I weave around that. How do I stand out? Because at a festival there's probably fifteen songs every DJ's going to play every hour, for the whole day. That to me is more interesting, because I still feel like an outsider in this world.
