On July the 8th this year @ Eden in Ibiza Invasion Ibiza began its Ibiza journey with a bang! on the night Randy Katana, Jon O.Bir and K90 topped the bill along with Invasion residents Russ Edwards, Dene No Rythem and Cheadle & Hubby. In the second room was the Uk's number 1 breaks night "Planet Breaks!" The night itself was awsome as K90 said in an interview soon after with Harder Faster: What was the most mental place you played? Id have to say this years Invasion: Ibiza at Eden was huge for me, in more ways than one! I think most people whove been to Ibiza to party would agree that its still a place where anything goes and anything is possible. Believe me, this trip was no exception! Another big highlight for me in 2006 was playing to 10,000 in a single arena at a World Cup 06 kick off party in Malaysia. So as K90's coming back for Invasions next event @ Eden, Ibiza September 9th along with Marcel Woods, Jon O.Bir, Planet Breaks and the Invasion residents we thought we'd fire a few questions at him Invasion style! 1. (Question from Snakes, Invasion resident) Do you prefer laces or Velcro? If youre referring to footwear Id say that trainers with Velcro are a lot easier to put on and take off! I have footwear featuring both styles of fastening so it would be unfair of me to side with one particular technique! 2 Now music is so readily available via download, file sharing sites etc how has this changed things for you as a producer and DJ? Do you prefer it the way it is now being able to share youre newly produced work so easily? Or does this bring allot of problems? From someone who runs a record label, digital downloading has without question taken its toll on the vinyl market and that concerns me. I still sell and promote the K90 catalogue on most of the big download sites but if I was 100% honest seeing a track that Ive been working on for four weeks on sale for 1.49 doesnt exactly fill me with enthusiasm to write the next Red Snapper! Luckily, my love for the music will always keep me writing because thats what I do. From a DJ-ing perspective, downloads are a fast, inexpensive way of getting your latest releases to the people you want. Id say 75% of the stuff I get sent is via email these days. 3. (Question from Kevmixin, Invasion resident) Youve been in this game a long time now and youve seen allot of change, How does the dance scene compare now to when you first started? Umm, thats a question Ive been asked a lot recently. Although there seems to be more choice these days, Ive not really noticed much difference in the way people go out and party, not since Ive been falling out of clubs anyway! For me as a producer, the processes I go through when I write are still pretty much the same as when I started its just the kit has got smaller!!! I would say is that with the onset of the digital age its a whole lot easier for new and upcoming producers get themselves heard but with fewer labels and clubs i think its harder to break through into what I would call the big time. 4. (Question from Naylor, Techno DJ and Producer) When you play your live sets what Kit do you use? I use Sony Vaio laptop running Emagic Logic, a couple of synths plus a mini controller keyboard. I run everything through a Peavey 12 channel mixer and have a DAT machine running simultaneously for back up just in case everything goes quiet! That lot all sits on three two tier keyboard stands, then I wrap my big ole K90 banner across the front and there you have it. Oh and I mustnt forget my trusty roll of gaffa tape!!! 5. (Question from the_minister, Tidy forum) When you play live do you use all the keyboards as controllers for a live sequencing programme like ableton? Itd be interesting to know this cos I dont know how the hell you play it all live when youre having so much fun dancing about!! Basically, the majority of the sound coming out of the speakers is generated by the laptop, I can then overlay string patterns, effects and operate filters using the controller or sampling keyboard. Not all the equipment on the stage is used in every track all the time but when youre on stage you have to have a certain amount of stage presence. It wouldnt be very good if I was on stage at say Global Gathering for instance with my PC and my little ole controller keyboard cause it would look crap! I personally think its more important to give the audience something to look at, give um a show! I mean, at the end of the day, who really cares if youre using Ableton, PC or a Fischer Price Activity Centre for that matter? 6. Question from Taylor J, DJ & Promoter) Have you ever thought of changing your music style? Im always looking at ways I can improve on what Ive done in the past and if you listen to the music I produced when I first started out its miles away from what Im doing now. Ive produced Hardcore (first time round) Acid Trance, Trance, and Hard House and the stuff Im producing now for my next artist album is I think certainly different again. If you mean will I start to write as a breaks or drum n bass producer I cant see that happening. I may dabble in those styles for an experimental album track or something but in the main I like to keep it four to the floor! 7. What age did you start producing music? Was it always hard Trance form the start? Have you got a lot of unfinished tracks from years ago? I think I was about 21 when I first started playing around with sounds and as I said in the previous answer Ive produced everything Hardcore, Hard House and everything in between! I dont tend to keep anything unfinished; it just gets scrapped so I can move onto the next idea! 8. (Question from your wife Jane) Whats the story behind the lucozade fountain? Shes a wrong-un that Jane! Ok, the story behind the Lucozade fountain goes something like this. We were travelling up to Leeds for a festival a couple of years ago. I was knackered from playing the night before so Jane was driving. I was concerned by my lack of energy knowing that I was gonna have to do it all again that evening so we pulled into a service station for some refreshments! I picked up this family sized bottle of Lucozdade thinking that should do the trick and got back in the car. We pulled out of the services and I proceeded to open my lovely bottle of orange energy, then whoosh, the entire contents of the bottle emptied itself over my jeans just like a fountain! The strange thing was I completely froze and in my weary state I just sat there and watched the sticky orange liquid gush from the bottle!!! It was only when I heard a distant voice similar to that of Obi Wan Kenobi communicating to Luke Skywalker from the netherworld saying are you gonna put the lid back on that then? that I snapped out of it and proceeded to stem the flow! By that time it was too late, I was an ants best friend! Needless to say we had to stop the next services so could clean myself up and luckily I had another clean pair of jeans in the car! The embarrassing this was though, I had to walk across the forecourt looking like Cliff Richard with an overflowing colostomy bag and worse, I had the indignity of attempting to clean my packet with a combination of wet wipes and a hand dryer!!! What a day! 9. (Another question from Jane) Whats the funniest thing to happen to you in a restaurant? Well, this may not be funny to everyone but I know my lovely wife found it rather amusing! We were basically sitting in a well known pizza restaurant and we were ravenous! As our order came to our table I, as usual got straight in there! My pizza had these giant round bits of pepperoni on and as I went in for the kill with a giant mouthful I didnt manage to bite through one of the oversize bits of meat, no, half the bloody topping decided to come off and proceeded to sit there hanging from my teeth onto my chin, melting cheese and all! By jingo that was hot! 10. What was the highlight of your trip to Ibiza with Invasion? There were so many highlights from that trip but most importantly the event itself was fantastic! The atmosphere at Eden that night was electric! My good lady wife as well as a few of my close friends came out with us which made it even more special. I know everyone felt the same as I do; it was one of the parties of the year! Aside from the event another memory thatll haunt my dreams forever was seeing one of my mates walking round Savannah wearing nothing but his underpants and a pair of ladies mustard coloured shoes. Hed been well and truly captured!!! 11. Whens your next album due for release? I cant see it being ready much before the middle of 2007. The track writing process is well underway but as Im looking to release a DVD with the album it may take a bit longer. As long as Im happy with the final product I dont really mind if takes another two years. 12. What gigs are you looking forward to the most later this year? Obviously Invasion: Ibiza in September then two days later I fly out to one of my favourite countries of the world New Zealand for a five date tour. 13. (Question from Matt, DJ, Two Kilos of funk) Why do dogs have cold noses? Sorry, Im more of a cat man so I couldnt tell you 14. What do you think was the most likely reason Invasion booked you to play at their Ibiza parties? A = Your music style fitted in perfectly with the time and flow of the night and helped them achieve an adrenalin rush of electro, techno, trance and hard dance! B = Your claw action is not that bad C = They needed someone to get wrecked with and were just thinking of the aftermath really and not the event.. All of the above but mainly the last one!!! 15. (Question from Filthy Harris, DJ & Strings, Harder Faster) What does K90 stand for? Rather boringly it doesnt actually stand for anything. K90 was originally KA90 back in the day when I was part of a two piece production team. One day, we wrote a tune but couldnt think of a name for the track so my mate randomly typed two letters KA and two numbers 90 We were doing hardcore back then and were signed to Kickin Records. They decided that it would be better to drop the A and K90 was born. 16. (Question from Sunnyside, Harder Faster) Does your name have anything to do with Dr Who's sidekick K9? Strangely enough, no! 17. (Question from webbo, Harder Faster) Why did you stop making acid trance? Its like anything, you have too much of something, you tend to get bored and want to move onto something else on the end. Im kinda glad my tastes tend to evolve with the music because if they didnt It would rather limit the events I could play at. 18. (Question from Filthy Harris, DJ & Little Miss Moo, Harder Faster) What was it like playing Dance Valley? And whats the best crowd youve ever played for and why? Dance Valley was brilliant this year, responsive crowd and great atmosphere, those crazy Dutch sure known how to put on a party! Ive been privileged enough to play to lots of great audiences over the years so to pick just one would be nearly impossible for me. This is also due to the fact that I dont tend to dwell on past events but try to refocus and move onto the next. As far as this year goes, my top three would have to be Global Gathering, a 10,000 people arena show in Malaysia and of course, Invasion: Ibiza in July! 19. (Question from Little Miss Moo, Harder Faster) What inspired you to write Breathe? Good question! Well, what I can tell you is that I got the lyrics first which then inspired me to write the music. For me inspiration can be a tiny spark, a drum kick, a bass line then it all just takes on a life of its own, its hard to explain but some tracks just seem to write themselves and Breathe was like that. 20. (Question from Lozer, Wreck head) Why do all shoe repairers also cut keys? Ummm, not really a question Ive posed myself on to many occasions but it is strange they do that though isnt itmaybe Ill nip down my local shops and ask! 21. (Question from Lenni your sister in law) Can you play the Ukulele? You know what, funnily enough I can!!! Well, I can play one song anyway - When Im cleaning windows by George Formby!!! I used to play a guitar when I was a kid and that has six strings, so when a mate of mine came round mine one day armed with this Ukulele (I know, thats weird in itself!!!) with only four strings it wasnt that difficult really! He taught me to play said Formby track in one afternoon! 22. (Question form sexyjojo, Harder Faster) Have you learnt to swim yet? Ref: http://www.harderfaster.net/?section=forums&action=showthread&threadid=1&threadid=165444&forumid=1 Stay away from this woman, she is evilask her husband, hes permanently scared!!!! In answer to your question, yes I can and have been able to swim for some time thanks very much Jo!!! It just didnt look like it on the time in question due to vast amounts of free booze weighing me down!!! 23. During you carer as a producer if you can answer this without getting your self in the shit, have you ever been ripped off especially when you first started out? The reason I ask is I know a few people that have been shafted due to there inexperience and being over keenness to get a track released. Umm, I cant really say that Ive ever been badly ripped off before but I have had occasions where Ive been owed money that Ive never received. My advice would be to try and get something in writing and get it signed, then at least youve got a reference point to go back to if there is some kind of grievance. Also, get your tracks registered with MCPS/PRS so when your track is released you can check back with them to see how many pressings have been made. Any label worth its salt should confirm the amount of pressings when they apply for their AP2 licence (a permission to press records/CDs). 24. Should Dene get his hair cut? On one hand I think, hell yeah and on the other hand I think he should keep growing it till he looks like Cousin It out of the Adams Family!!! 25. What do you think of the Invasion brand as a whole, i.e. its team, its mentality and its objectives, and what do you think makes it different from everyone else? From what Ive seen, the Invasion brand seems to be successful because the people behind it seem to get the best results by working with a smile on their faces! I mean, thats what were all in this for right, to have a good time? This is not say that their not thorough or professional because in my experience they very much are! Unfortunately, there are far too many people in this industry, especially DJs and promoters that take themselves far too seriously! It makes a welcome and refreshing change to work with a promotion that has the right attitude! 26. (Question from Vinylvibes, Harder Faster) Are you sick of Red Snapper yet? YES!!! 27. (Question from lilgingerkittee, Tidy forum) Are you always that happy in real life?? Would we see you in Tesco for example bouncing around the frozen food section with that HUGE grin on getting excited by the special offers??? I do actually shop at Tesco and can be quite often found larking about amongst all the isles, not just the frozen food section, just ask my wife!!! In general I am a pretty cheerful chap and I dont really need special offers to make me happy! 28. What did you think of Invasion Ibiza back in July? Was it what you were expecting? Did it look and feel as you imagined it would? Are you looking forward to Invasion Ibiza in September? Ive experienced beefa a few times so kinda know what to expect, but I have to say Invasion back in July was just fantastic! For a first event, on a Saturday which is strangely considered not to be a good day to have a party on in Ibiza, I was blown away! The number of people that packed into Eden coupled with an atmosphere that I cant remember being part of for a long time made it one of the highlights of my calendar so far this year! Bring on round two in SeptemberI cant wait!!!!! The Next Invasion event is on Saturday September the 9th @ Eden, Ibiza K90, Jon O.Bir, Marcel Woods, Planet Breaks & The Invasion Residents! www.invasion-online.com for all details!
