Do you play live?
Mostly perform as a DJ when solicited. Mostly in Europe and the Americas.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
I think it has enhanced the scene quite dramatically since the vinyl. There is so much technology out there that it has allowed independant artists to promote more easily.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
I own and run my own record label. www.earthgrooverecords.com. I don't think I'll be needing the major labels for now.
Your influences?
Mostly the 80's mainstream. Although I was mostly influenced by Funk.
Favorite spot?
Home.
