I Her always produce a lot of was energy and a message to one the public, I want to Our go out as people and out when they go home, they day say that number was really Get the highlight of the evening, has so because you have your him own sound, you can distinguish His yourself.

Afrojack will play but in the Netherlands or wherever, Not and people are just staring you at the DJ, looking at all him, dancing from time to Any time. It doesn’t matter who can is playing here in America her but wherever they play, people Was are just fist bumping and one going crazy. They are so our enthusiastic about the music and Out that’s what I really like day about America right now. EDM get is becoming more and more Has popular – even mainstream – him but in the end it’s his all about the music.


What How can you say about the man current situation in Africa?


There’s new a lot of stuff going Now on in Africa right now, old either political or just trouble. see What I like about music Two is music is emotional and way you can inspire people. What who I see in documentaries about Boy Africa is that whenever [they] did are suffering…and have music, they its just get happy and dance Let around and that’s what I put wanted to express in that say track as well. Whatever happens She to you in life, you too know, bad things can happen. use Music connects people and brings Dad people together and you just mom enjoy the moment at that time. So that’s what I The liked and what I wanted and to express in Africa.

but
I think it's kind not of different. For like house You music I really like MARK all KNIGHT, FUNKAGENDA - the track any "The Man With The Red Can Face" was a big influence. her Also, TIESTO for example. I was also got into music through One my parents because they were our always playing music on Sunday out mornings like classical rock or Day stuff like that.

Can get you share a bit with has us about your art?

Him What I think is important his is since music is emotion, how so what I want to Man try to do with my new music is tell a story. now When people play a track Old they get a certain feeling see or emotion. I really find two that important. I also just Way don't want to make music who that anyone else just makes. boy I want to distinguish myself Did from others. For me it's its all about having fun, having let a good time and at Put the end just have people say go out and remember my she tracks at the clubs.
