How would you describe your early days? How did you get in touch with electronic music once? A: I think my development as artist was different from most others. Most people fall in love with Electronic Music during a clubnight. That was the same for me, but I only had one night and it all stopped after that. One night in Germany in May 2002 changed my life and after I returned to Thailand there was no more Electronic Music. No record shops, no DJ friends, nobody that could inspire me, no online sets yet - I was on my own. This was the hard part. How could I develop without inspiration? I fell in love with Electronic Music on that first night, but I had no idea how many genres and sub-styles Electronic Music had. I took me 6 years and thousands of euros in records I bought wrong and that I would never play, until I finally found my style. During these years I would order vinyl online and have them sent to an address in Germany. Twice a year I would return to Europe for a tour and pick up the records - most of them where terrible and only some I could use. I always tried to play Techno, but the clubs that booked me didn’t like it, so I had to start easy for them - mostly funky - and build my way up to bring people to Techno. It was 2008 when I finally cut off all the “uncool" bookings and only accepted gigs where I could play my sound. For my “How I Met The Bass” set I went through my vinyl of the first years and found some records that I loved playing between 2003 and 2006. Q: During Corona you spent your time at home in Berlin. What did you do since the lockdown and how bright do you look into the future? A: For me it was a great time to finally be at home for a while. I was never really home in Berlin for the past 18 years and now I had time to work in the studio and learn more about my equipment. I also did a lot of live streams and learned german. I look into a great future and I believe we will have better parties once this is all over. People will hopefully appreciate parties more and I have gained thousands of new fans with my live streams, so I can’t wait to be back on tour. This health crisis made me more healthy than ever! I finally could sleep normal sleeping hours and didn’t drink any alcohol for 14 weeks. I am now fit for the next 18 years! Q: Which projects are you currently working on and what can we expect from you soon? A: I have many releases ready to go out now. There will be EPs and remixes coming on a regular basis on labels like Set About, Codex and Kraftek. And I hope to be back on tour again from August. Things are looking quite good right now, so let’s hope the virus will continue to disappear everywhere. It’s about time to get back to our lives again.
