I think the biggest problem with drum and bass is that people don't like to collaborate, and so from very early on I have made a point of stepping outside the box and working with as many people as I can.

My stepfather used to run hotels all around the world.

My house got flooded in Los Angeles and completely ruined it. People asked how did your house flood on the hills in LA? It was a plumbing problem that the landlord didn't fix, so everything got ruined there. It's one of those things where you take the opportunity and run with it. My producers are here and we're working on the new album here, and I was here all of the time so it made sense to spend some time here, so we'll just see what happens. It's definitely very different.
