(this is uplifting - I also play much tougher tech trance sets as well)
Worst DJing moment:After 8 years of never taking off the wrong record, we had a problem with one of the decks a couple of months back so I was bouncing between my CDJ and a deck for a few tunes. We fixed the deck, I mixed back onto the vinyl from the CDJ then took off the needle - argh!!
Would most like to play:Some good London gigs as I mostly play up around the Midlands and North - Nowhere, No Limits etc would be good.
Most enjoyable set you've played:Classics night the other month at Fixation - should finish at 4am and at 4.45 they were still stamping their seet for one more tune. Awesome.
