Claptone – Heartbeat (Technasia remix)
If you were a DJ, who would you like to be and why?
Carl Cox, because as much as he changed over the years, he influenced the electronic music’s world. His sets are pure energy, whether they are of the ’90s or of one of the latest Ultra.
If you could ask only one question to a DJ, what would you ask and to whom?
I would ask Maceo Plex what he feels, imagines and sees to create tracks which are able to touch the soul and make the mind travel so much.
Which club would you like to own and why?
Hï in Ibiza. It was a reference when it was still Space and in my opinion, it still is. Music for me is freedom of expression, imagination, fun, connection and sexuality; this club is all this. The sound system is excellent, the lights and the visuals are amazing. The outdoor area, with a garden, a mini bar and Indian style tents, completes the club makes it suitable for those who just want to have a peaceful chat.
Who do you think is the most overrated DJ and who is the most underrated?
I think Peggy Gou is overrated, just as those artists who are “there” just because of an economical purpose than for else. On the other hand, many others are in the middle, they provide tracks to the big ones and haven’t fully taken root yet.
If you could travel in time, which music event would you like to (re)live?
