So then Nicky, lets begin!

Youre playing a double whammy for Bitch on March 31st, in Manchester AND Glasgow, are you looking forward to it? Have you heard much about Bitchs nights?

Yes very much so, I love coming out to England, English people are always up for a party and so am I!!!

With Manchester being Bitchs home, its always a bit special, have you played in Manchester before?

No I have not, really excited to come over!

What have you heard about how the Manchester people like to party?

I heard and experienced that UK punters in general are mad, just the way I like it lol.

Your track Toulouse recently came out on Spinnin Records, can you tell us a little bit about it? What your inspiration for it?

In get inspiration from all kinds of music, but for Toulouse I did not really derive my inspiration from one specific track. I was just trying out things and this then kind of grew into what it is through a lot of trial and error, chuffed with the outcome though, we just did a nice remix package too, Tommy Trash and Chocolate Puma did an amazing job.

Whats your most prized possession

Pffffff that is a hard one if I have to choose Id say my motorbike

What would you say is the secret to a DJs success now?

Making good music first and foremost. I think it is very hard to breakthrough as just a DJ nowadays.

If you won the lottery what would be the first thing you bought

My own fully tricked out studio.

With summer finally on the horizon, can you let us in on any exciting plans you have, Ibiza maybe?

Yes I am going to be resident at David Guettas FMIF party in the Pacha this season.

What do you want to say youve done this year when it gets to midnight on December 31st?

I would love to be able to look back and say I did a collab with Axwell I am a big big fan of his!!

Orange Juice or Coffee in the morning?

Orange Juice please!

Describe a typical day in your life

When I am traveling to do gigs it is quite a rigid schedule of flying, trying to catch an hour of sleep here or there, doing a gig and flying out the next day again.

When I am at home I either hang with friends but most of the times I spend in the studio.

How do you deal with criticism?

I try to take it on the chin and learn from it.

Who is your idol?

I have many to be honest. I look up a lot to David Guetta, Axwell basically I admire people that take a risk and follow their heart, if you can make money with what you are passionate about that makes you idol material to my opinion.

What were your highlights in 2011?

Not to sound corny but 2011 was one big highlight for me. So much crazy stuff happened I sometimes have to pinch myself to see if it is all real.

And finally, what can we expect from you on March 31st?

A night full of madness energy and great music
