THE INTERVIEW
Tell us more on your your latest tracks coming out?
The last thing I finished in the studio were my remixes of Agnes' next single "I Need You Know" which should be out soon, and now I'm currently working on a new single with Kimblee (vocalist from "Fade"), a new Nice 'n' Ripe release, a new Swing City release and a new Studio Essentials Sample library!
What's been your biggest achievement in your career?
You know what, I don't think anything could top the fact that I've been able to spend my life doing what I love - and get paid for it!
If you had 10 seconds to live what would be your last famous words?
See I told you it wouldn't be the cigarettes....
Tell us A joke?
A chicken and an egg are lying in bed. The chicken is leaning against the headboard smoking a cigarette, with a satisfied smile on his face. The egg, looking pissed off, grabs the sheet, rolls over and says, "Well, I guess we finally answered THAT question."
When's the last time you have embarrassed yourself?
About 3 seconds ago telling that joke!
What's the craziest thing you have done?
I used to dance with my head inside the bassbins at raves. That was a pretty stupid thing to do!
What pisses you off about England?
The fact that we've become a country of corporate robots. We're a nation of statistics that do as we are told and don't ever question anything, and we're too brainwashed to realise it. Future
generations will look back at our time and be amazed at how easy we were to control, while all the time thinking we were making our own decisions.
Which is your favourite club you enjoy playing at?
Currently it's my residency in Brazil @ Disco in Sao Paulo! Brazillians are some of the warmest people you will meet on the planet and they sure know how to party!
If you were allowed to choose one album to listen too for the rest of your life what would it be?
Earth, Wind & Fire - "I Am" So many classic tracks on one piece of plastic!
Whats your favourite TV programme?
Don't really watch that much TV anymore to be honest, but having said that I am feeling "Jamie's American Road Trip" at the moment.
Which football team do you support?
I think I'm the only bloke in England that doesn't know, or care about football in the slightest!
What have you got in store for the Shiva faithful at Pacha?
Plenty of re-edits and specials and some proper "get down" music!
Thanks Grant, see you on the 10th.........
