If I have a chance to positively impact how the populace views DJs, then I'm going to try to do my part to nudge things in the right direction.

Just like on Guitar Hero, there are things that are similar and things that are not similar at all. When I first played DJ Hero, I wasn't very good. The control surface is similar in some ways to a turntable, but in other ways not at all the same.

Any good album title has multiple meanings, and I like choosing titles where I find myself repeating it, almost like a mantra.

Like a lot of other DJs, I've been wondering when the first DJ game was going to happen. Somebody even pitched me on their own idea and I thought, "I'm not a video game startup; I don't know what I'm supposed to do with this."

I tend to gravitate away from the more trendy Ibiza style of dance music. It's not me.

I personally feel the need to experience life and new music and ideas before I can sit down and start writing music again.

If you think of any long-term artist that makes music throughout several decades, you would hope that it's autobiographical and a form of self-expression, and that's certainly how I approach my music.
