As every Mixmag reader knows, it's all about the afterparty. And when your actual party has a line-up that includes Justice, Timo Maas, Chase & Status, Frankmusic live and more, the after party has to be something special.

So weve turned to the experts. Helming rooms in the Egg rave warren after Mixmags Christmas Party on 5th December are Leeds party outlaws Ketaloco, fresh from a summer throwing amazing raves at the abandoned zoo in Ibiza, Londons undead dawn chasers Zombies Ate My Brain, the Eggs own Always Fridays and underground techno and electro night Maximalism. Oh and the incredible Timo Maas and Santos will also be staying on after the main event to make sure that you remember the Mixmag mission statement: Bed is the enemy.

We caught up with the main man Timo Mass to find out what he has been up to lately......

1. You have been DJing from a very young age and built up your profile over a lot of years of hard work, at what point did you start to realise you had made it?

I actually have the impression, I never made itas soon, u have this impression, I thinku lost it then!

2. In your experience, how or what do you think is the best way to break through into DJing?

I come from a completly different time really but basically, never copy anybody, do your own style, produce (!!!) and believe in yourself, being different than the others

3. How do you find the clubbing scene differs in different countries? Which is your favourite to play and why?

The mentality is different, but the general intention is the same, no matter where or what language the people speak!

4. You have played at some incredible venues over the years, where and when has been your most memorable gig? And where has been most memorable to party?

US-Election and Obamas win is THE highlight in general!

I don`t have the ultimate herobut I do respect for example (many times said) good old Carl Cox for his love and passion and personality!
There`s loads of new guys around, but its not too many really, that blow my mind with their sets.
