I am an indie kid. I made no bones about the fact that I fell into DJing electronic music by accident, by a lucky break, but it doesn't make me any less of a fan of that music, I just never envisaged... not through a lack of confidence or belief, I just didn't think that I'd be sharing the bill with people that I was going out to see myself.

Obviously like many of us, I love music, and I hate music sometimes.

Sometimes something has a value, it has an instant quality to it, and that's all it needs to be.

Instinct is the most powerful thing you have, and you have to trust it.

Guidance is everything, you have to accept that somebody is their own person, an individual.

I think the two sides to me are the same as two sides to anybody. In relation to the link between doing the label and being a DJ, it goes back to the thing of necessity. It's the only way I feel I can do something creative that's going to satisfy me.

I wish I could do something else, I wish I was an amazing painter or a brain surgeon or something, but it's just what it's been.
