1. WHAT’S THE BEST NIGHT OUT YOU’VE EVER HAD?
Puff Daddy’s house in the Hamptons a few years back. I was younger then and that shit was insane… Rappers, actors, models. His famous white parties he used to do before he invented Ibiza. He talks the talk but he backs it up big time. Also, after playing Pacha a couple of years back with Roger Sanchez, I ended up playing in Space. It was one ofthose nights I didnt want to end. Sometimes I think we do have the best job in the world – we are so lucky.

8. HOW DO I ESCAPE?
Down the beach. I have a place on Bondi beach so down in the water or surfing – it’s so spiritual and keeps everything out in the world out of my head…I’m too busy worring about sharks. I also own and race Greyhounds so I’m always down at the tracks. I get to do my thing and relax… its a passion I love so much. In New York I escape down in the studio in Brooklyn. In Europe any beach will do.
