- Soundtrack of my life
The man who brings techno to the mbades on the songs that shaped his life
What is the first song that you remember hearing?
Kylie Minogue – "I should be so lucky"
"I do not have the full memory but my parents bought me Kylie Minogue's 7" I Should Be So Lucky "when I was about four because I apparently liked it so much. What a banger. "
What is the first song you fell in love with?
Nirvana – 'In Bloom'
"A friend of my father made me a Nirvana compilation tape that I would listen to again and again while becoming a Street Fighter II Turbo master. In my room. On my own."
What is the first album you bought?
"Due to lack of funds, I borrowed CDs at the Winton Library most weeks. I rinsed this place. I do not remember exactly, but the first thing I actually bought with my own money would have been something like: 'Mellon Collie [and the Infinite Sadness]'By Smashing Pumpkins. I still like that. "

What was the first concert you went to?
The Prodigy at the Bournemouth International Center in 1997 on their Fat Of The Land tour.
"I was eleven years old and my father took me away. This remains one of the best things I have ever seen. It was as if the foundations of the building were shaking. The idea of bludgeon only entered my field of vision many years later, but something had to penetrate deeply into this experience. The recent death of Keith is a tragic loss. It was said that he was a man of choice above all else. "
Which song makes you want to dance?
Autechre – 'Clipper'
"It makes me want to dance while my legs contract at the same time. It's like walking in an escalator that goes up on my lap.
Which song reminds you of the house?
Joy Division – 'Isolation'
"When I was learning to play bbad in my room at home, I had bits like this in a continuous loop. Each of his notes is deeply rooted in my being. I was in mid-adolescence when I started playing bbad and for several years, that's all I did. I've finally acquired a basic drum machine, an effect pedal and a simple four-track recorder, that's how I started recording. I would love to hear these tapes again, but I do not know where they are at all … "
Which song would you like to have written?
The Cure – 'A forest'
"The best proto-dub-techno record of all. Most artists are not ready to write such a good song. The priests have about fifty.
Which song changed your life?
My bloody Valentine's Day – 'Only shallow'
"The first time I heard Loveless [the album ‘Only Shallow’ is on] It was a revealing experience. It hurt me more than anything I had heard before and I wanted to know everything about it. It stirred in me something to try to create my own music rather than just listen to other songs. "
"I had to be around fifteen or sixteen when I first heard it. It was already a clbadic, but it was quite new to me when I first put it on. One has the impression of being immersed in a dream – there are familiar elements but most of the sounds are totally alien. That said, there is a comforting warmth that very few discs are able to achieve. I still get exactly the same excitement today as when I first heard it. "
What song do you listen to prepare before making a DJ?
Two solitary swordsmen – "When the pleasures of the world greet"
"I'm constantly playing on this one recently. Keith and Andrew are heroes and, between them, have created incredible music over the years. It's enough to make you cry. "
What song of another artist reminds you to do Song for Alpha?
William Basinski – "dlp 1.1"
"The filming of Song For Alpha dominated my life for five years and it happened to me to get lost in some dark corners of my studio. Artists like Basinski helped me hang out and put my thoughts back. His music is the audio equivalent of taking a breath and retiring from the noise of surface life. "
