play track crowds
I love to produce a track and then play it for the crowd; that's the biggest kick for me!
sound-quality lucky taste
I heard 'Get Lucky'; it's just not my taste. It's great what Daft Punk does and the sound quality is great, but that whole disco vibe is not really my thing.
night europe play
If you play the same club every week of every month, it's kind of boring. It's great that you can play one night in Brazil and one night in Japan, one night in Europe, and see the world. It's amazing what you see if you travel around the world.
nice laughing trying
I love Twitter, you know? I try to read everything I can on Twitter. You get so much nice feedback about stuff, you know you just put out a sentence and everybody laughs or everybody's just sending something back. It's amazing. Same with Facebook, you know? I'm a lot on Facebook and it's just - it's just amazing. And YouTube, of course, as well.
team cutting clothes
When I design the clothes, I have a very good team around me, showing me different pieces and cuts. I'm very involved in the process, I go to L.A. and get onto the design floor, and I help pick out the best pieces.
real love-you want
They say learning to love yourself Is the first step That you take when you want to be real.
fashion careers djs
It will be great to have a fashion career during and after my DJ career.
fifa playstation
I love playing FIFA on my PlayStation!
beautiful party fantastic
Sigur Ros make beautiful music. Bloc Party are fantastic and exciting and innovative.
electronic
I think the indie-rock world is very creative. They're always looking for something new, and I think of all the instruments we have in the world, the ones that are the most creative and interesting are the electronic ones. There are so many sounds and plug-ins you can use.
country embrace miami music places
Miami is a really special place for me, particularly in the U.S. It was one of the first places in the country to really embrace dance music, and I've been going there for many, many years.
guy guys indie west work
I think it would be different to work with a guy like Kanye West or Jay-Z, those guys are so phenomenal, but just to work with a rapper, I don't think is really my thing. I really like songs, like true songs. Like indie songs.
There's nothing more frustrating than when you hear a track and you can never find out what it is.
