The Lucid Podcast 034…wicked dub set from Downunder! Thank you Dave Stuart!!! xxx

1. Lucidflow: How does a creative day look/feel like for you?

In a word busy…its not often I get as much time as Id like to work on music, at the moment im totally committed to djing, I am not overly concerned with production as of yet as I think production should be left to producers and djing to dj’s. I think there are way too many people trying to do both and only being able to be average at both (saying that though, there are a lot of exceptions to that…). I love djing and am not ready to start releasing tracks, so I want to leave that for a time in the future.

Okay that didn’t really answer the question did it? :P I think creativity cannot for forced, you are either are in the mood or you aren’t, though you have to give yourself the surroundings that allow you to be…

2. Lucidflow: How do you hinder yourself in being creative?

I love trying to broaden my mind as much as possible, this comes down to talking to as many different people as possible, reading books from all other the world, trying my best to give myself enough time to search & search for tracks….

Also I find coffee (in the mornings) and scotch (usually at night…) and my cat always put me in the right frame of mind.

3. Lucidflow: how do you support yourself in being creative?

In a simple answer by working too much, I always seem to have a million jobs and little projects on the go at one time. I have to have a 9-5 job to sustain my dj’ing, plus I also run events, and a touring company as well as DJing every weekend…..

4. Lucidflow: How did you come across Lucidflow?

My wonderful partner (and now wife…) was a massive fan of Nadjas music and was always showing me Nadja’s & Klartraum’s tunes and we both feel in love with the music. I was very happy to discover so much good music on the label, especially as I love the deeper dubby sounds. It was great to finally meet Nadja & Helmut last year when they toured Australia and stayed with us and played some gigs together.

5. Lucidflow: Tell us one of your greatest wishes:

I guess it’s a little clichéd, but id love to see more love in the world. If everyone tried to make everything they did in life to have a benefit for other people we’d all be a lot more happy.

6. Lucidflow: Anything else you would spread to the Lucid world?

Play more dub ;)
