There was a movement called 'disco sucks', it was a shame to like disco, but then there was no music to dance to, so some DJs started to use old disco records, but the B-sides and the acapellas, and we began producing beats with drum machines.

Everything I do comes from the clubs. If I lose that, I'm done.

Everything I make as a producer, I visualize it as a DJ first. And all those beats, I test them as a DJ.

Music. I live it and breathe it. It wakes me up in the morning, puts me to sleep at night and is with me all day.

I wanna be a nice guy.

So dance music is now pop music. So now, as a dance producer, what do I have to do? So I'm starting to do alien music, because pop is not pop anymore; we need to go alien to be independent.

My parents were extreme left so everything was against the system. I was walking barefoot in the streets of Paris when I was eight. When I started to DJ they hated it, because for them, nightclubs, and all of this life, was terrible and fake.
