«Más que un sonido o un estilo en particular, en este mix quise mostrar lo que me interesa tanto de armar sets como de bailarlos: hacer un viaje por cruces de estilos y épocas buscando la mayor coherencia posible, ya sea por algún elemento, un mood o incluso letra. Por supuesto que hay mucho de lo que se conoce como house, pero también quise incluir cosas de los orígenes (como disco, italo disco y proto house), además de momentos más trippy y un par de producciones propias que edité este año y que están inspiradas en esto mismo.»

«More than a particular sound or style, in this mix I wanted to show what I’m interested in when putting together sets and dancing to them: to make a journey through different styles and eras looking for the greatest possible coherence, either by some element, a mood or even lyrics. Of course there is a lot of what is known as house, but I also wanted to include things from the origins (like disco, italo disco and proto house), as well as more trippy moments and a couple of my own productions that I released this year and that are inspired by this same thing.»
