What is your finest quality as a producer?

The bass, melodies and the chords.

…and what is each other’s most annoying habit, what drives you crazy about them at times?

Rachid is really annoyingly active all day and Jesse can be extremely lazy sometimes. It’s the opposite of each other!

An up and coming producer to watch out for this year?

Mike Williams. He joined Tiesto on stage at Ultra, how epic is that?!

Which famous person would you most like to see play you in a film?

Robert Deniro or Denzel Washington, our favorite actors!

What’s the biggest risk you’ve ever taken?

To bring out music that’s not mainstream (yet).

What accomplishment in your life are you most proud of?

When our single ‘Rumors’ got released on Spinnin’ Records. It was our first single that ever got released and one of our biggest accomplishments. We’re still so proud of it!
