When I started DJ'ing, it was no big thing. There was no money in DJ'ing, and you did it purely for the love of playing music.

Why people used to go to clubs was to have a great time and to forget their troubles and worries and stresses of the week and enjoy themselves and I think that the music was a huge, important part of that

I had Ice Cube on my first album, "Bunker," and then I did a remix for Snoop Dogg. I've worked with Grandmaster Flash and Pharrell. It's a different work process and there's a different take with how you produce [hip-hop].

Let their music skill speak for [itself]. If they are producing good tracks and are resonating with their fans, or even gaining new fans, then that's great.

I've been going to China every year now for more than a decade.

APA is another evolution in my career; they have unique vision and share my goals for the future. I look forward to expanding our horizons together.

I never thought electronic music would get as popular in America as it has. When I first came to Vegas in 2009 for my residency - we were they only people playing electronic music at that time.
