Q: So you have decided to go Taipei from way back. Why did you choose there?
Oh that’s a long story for another time.
Q: Tell me about your apartment and and equipments. (Your favorite spots in there, and objects at home, and why?)
Right now I have an XDJ RX2 and a pair of Technics SL1200’s. It’s a really convenient combo to practice mixing through digital and vinyl. The whole setup is positioned in front of a big window, so when I practice in the early afternoon it gets great light. Sadly there isn’t enough consistent light throughout the day to keep a lot of plants happy.
Q: What is that your favorite instrument at hand or that you keen to purchase one day?
Hmmm. No plans as of yet.
Q: Do you often complain? What is that moment in your music career that you’re not so proud? What was the trigger that put you in such unpleasant position?
Yeah I love to complain. I’m also pretty overcritical of my sets, so I regularly walk away from the booth feeling “not so proud” of my performances.
Q: What a day, you’ve spared for music (either production or just spinning), with you would be like?
Just hangin out, drinking some coffee, maybe having a pastry, and playing some tunes in the early afternoon!
Q: Do you believe in the concept like ‘sleeping on it’, or something like that in the process?
Definitely. Pause and reflection are a key part of the process!
Q: What happens if you lose what you were trying to do?
Better to take a break and come back to it later with a clear head.
Q: Do you have a label? (Or a plan of it?)
Nope!
Q: Were there many times when you thought, ‘This is not working’ about your DJ/producer career? (Like months at a time or weeks at a time?)
There have been a few periods of time when things weren’t really working out, but those come and go! I’m very fortunate to have been in Taiwan throughout the pandemic, and to have been able to play shows while the rest of the world was locked down.
