Tell us more about your current release?
Unique, originally by Danube Dance was covered with my Album in 2008. It features the original singer Kim Cooper. I came across the A Capella and thought, mmm time to a remix or new version. Working with Kane Rayner on a duo called “Rubber People” which is getting a lot of traction on the jackin house charts and the DJ’s alike around the world. So thought we would do a version of it. Came up really well and we got Mind Electric on the mix.
Any worldly advice you’d like to share?
The most satisfying thing is to help people and also learn from them. When you meet an expert at something, try and pick their brains and learn from them – it’s usually free!
