Tell us what’s new in the world of Kurd Maverick.
I am working on my first album ! Watch out in 2008 !
Your playing at Pukka Up for the Official launch of your new compilation album on Cr2 with Dirty South, tell us a bit about that and how it came about.
I love the stuff coming out on cr2, so Mark Brown asked me if I would like to mix one of the live & direct cd’s and that was a easy decision for me.
What’s your favourite track the Album ?
K3 - Play To Win - Danny Freakazoid Remix & my remix of Tim Deluxe - Let The Beats Roll
The huge Track "Pump Up The Jam" (by the D.O.N.S. Ft Technotronic) really announced you on to the scene. What was it like to have the biggest Dj’s in the world playing your track ?
Thats an amazing feeling but you get addicted to it. You want the same with evey track you produce !
What`s your favorite country to play in (and why)?
I love to play in South America, the people are very hungry for some fresh beats, but I love to play in Germany as well because I have the most fun with my friends. but its not easy with a very busy schedule. I am looking forward to my Australia tour in September! I play a lot in Spain where I have really fun every time.
What do you think of the UK scene at the moment?
I´m not playing that much in UK to give any comments.
Where is your favorite place to play in the UK?
London is great! But i´m sure there are more wonderful places which I haven´t visited yet.
If you could only play one more club ever, what club would it be and what other DJs would be playing?
Space Opening or Closing and Pacha Ibiza with Carl Cox, R. Sanchez, Morillo, Guetta, Sinclar.
Why do you think you`ve been successful as a DJ?
Because i am talented. Mixture between all the house music styles but in a good way. And of course I love the music I play which is real.
And as a producer?
What do you prefer (producing or DJ’ing)?
What do you like to do away from dance music?
Vacation :-), producing all music styles that I want. Sports and of course my family!
It´s not possible to tell. People have to meet me to have an idea what kind of human I am…
What have you got coming up in the future?
”Lets Work” has been released now on Cr2. Next single ist called “Strings Of Tortuga”. I did remixes for Out Of Office, Tim Deluxe and Bob Sinclar and I am working on my album which is coming out in 2008 and a track together with Roger Sanchez this summer in Ibiza. Live & Direct Compilation on Cr2.
What can we expect from you at your Album launch party for Pukka Up
Getting Dirty !!! SEE YOU THERE !!
