That's the main thing. People have to feel it's real. If they feel there's something commercial or some fake thing behind it, then the feeling is definitely different.

Shops and clubs are very important when you want to change things. And they have a common denominator; the customer.

Sometimes I happen to be the right guy in the right spot at the right moment.

The latest trend seems to be these DJs doing pre-recorded sets, in perfect pitch with the lights & acts on stage. Everything is centred around the action from the stage. It doesn't even demand action coming from the crowd! Passive consumerism or something. Mayhem with an overwhelming sound that isn't actually good music. More like diarrhoea.

I remember a discussion with a panel of experts, I asked a question to one of the moderators: "Why is it so difficult for a foreign DJ to play in a club in London?" And you know what the guy said? "Get better than the English."

A scene can be created when people are coming together. Either to shop or to hang out.

My policy has always been to play new music. New beat, industrial, techno, disco, funk, rare groove and house music.
