I'm always looking for just the right song that has something to say.

I think dancing is one of the best things anyone can do for themselves. And it doesn't cost anything.

A friend of mine that happened to be a DJ at another club actually offered me a job [as a DJ]. I didn't think I could do it but he said, "You know all the music. You are at all the parties, and everybody knows you."

The minute you think you're greater than the music, you're finished

I think women's ears are a lot more sensitive. Men are going to follow whatever appeals to women.

Well technology has changed a lot of things, making it possible for just about anyone to make music. But not everybody is a songwriter, so that puts me in a completely different ballpark than the other DJs out here that are writing and producing tracks. I don't stop at tracks, I try to complete the whole package with the song. So working at that level has put me in a completely different place.

It's not easy staying relevant in the marketplace.
