I always used to travel without a passport case, and because of it I think I'm four passports in. I bought this small Tumi case to protect my new one, and it works really well, not just for protecting it but also for keeping credit cards and small stuff. I just throw it in my bag when I'm traveling, as opposed to stuffed in my pocket.

Dance music is like a virus, it has affected so many different genres.

I love DJing, I do. I love everything that comes with it; it's fun and it's kind of glamorous.

When I started out, I was Avici with one i. But on MySpace, that name was taken.

Obviously there is stuff that I wouldn't play in a club that I play at festivals, and vice-versa, but my sets are still dominated largely by my own music. I think that's what makes me stand out a bit. My music is also festival- and club-friendly, so it generally works out well.

I've always worn a lot of Ralph Lauren, and plaid shirts in general have been a signature piece for me. With plaid, you can look super-relaxed or you can look a bit dressed up.

I would never lay down a pre-programmed set and perform to a pre-mixed CD; I would never cheat my fans like that.
