This one is brand new, it was recorded live at a Paris club called le Badaboum and transmitted live on french radio Nova (which is a big big deal). I was crazy nervous and the sound guy didn’t take me seriously, so the first track I played is actually missing from the recording because he fucked up my set up. You can even hear on one track I played that was a record, that he didn’t plug the MK2 in properly so you only hear the song on one side… This is all nerdy but basically I felt pressure and the conditions were tough but I am genuinely very happy and proud of this mix. It makes me want to dance and sing and smile – I can only hope it will make my friends and strangers want to do that too.

This one for Highsnobiety I thought more as a way to succinctly show my eclectism… Simply put this was an accurate screenshot of what I was playing at home for myself.

This one from last Summer. When I started DJing in clubs more seriously I decided to make a first mix in the middle of Summer. The heat must have inspired me and ever since then I try and make Summer mixes every year. Keeping those innocent feelings alive!
