This is your first trip to India. What are your expectations?
Yes it is, and I’m so excited. I have heard many great things from my fellow DJs about their experiences of performing in India. So, I have high expectations, but I am confident they will be fulfilled.
Tell us about Mesocyclone?
It’s the name of one of my personal favourite tracks. It’s also a vortex of air in a convective storm.
What kind of music are you looking at playing in India?
I make it my mission to find exclusive music for my DJ sets from both established and up-and-coming artistes, as well brand new Ben Gold music. I’ll be playing a lot of Trance.
Have you studied the music scene here?
I always look to connect with people whether I’m playing at a new show, or a show I’ve already played. I spend a lot of time on my own at airports, on flights and in hotel rooms, all to be able to perform all over the world; it’s worth every second! My Macbook is a mini version of my studio, so I’m able to work on set-ups and ideas for new tunes even during my tours. I go to the gym as often as I can, it’s important to stay fit and healthy when travelling every weekend.
Where do you get your inspiration from to make your music?
The dance floor.
Tell us a bit about your ASOT experience.
Playing at any ASOT party is always a highlight in your career. They put you on the biggest trance parties in the world. I spend time making and sourcing exclusive new material for my sets at ASOT. It’s a good opportunity to showcase your new music to the world.
