Excerpts from Sasha's interview in DJ Mag...


Recommended Posts

Here are some excerpts from Sasha's interview in this month's new DJ Mag...

Your're Twilo residency seems to have won you a lot of fans. You and John Digweed got mobbed in New York while you were promoting the Communicate mix cd, didn't you?

"Yeah and it was the most awful, nerve racking experience of my life. We walked into Virgin and there were literally 3000 kids in there in the middle of the day, it was like Twilo with the lights on. John went a deep shade of red, I was sweating, we were in all sorts of trouble. We played about three records then the system blew up and I've never been so relieved in my life, because it was just too intense, you had no where to hide. I felt like Ricky Martin or something. Afterwards we signed CDs and shook hands with people, which was cool but I think I'll be sticking to clubs in future. I dn't think me and John make very good pop stars."

You're talking about that elusive album

"I've been talking about it for do long people are probably thinking change the fucking record. The thing is, I've had so many other commitments with gigs and mix albums, plus when I started working on it I didn't even know how to to turn a computer on. But I'm very comfortable in the studio now and I feel like this is the time. It's unfinished buisness for me. I'm working on stuff at the moment, going back over samples from the last three years and getting a lot of breakbeats and stuff together, I want to make an album for clubbers to listen to, but I don't just want it to be an album of club tracks. Things like the new Radiohead album are a real inspiration for me. It's a gorgeous record with amazing studio techniques and a really strong identity...it flows together so beautifully you want to put it on again as soon as it's finished."

Sasha will be taking a six month break to work on his album...but his residencies at Twilo and Fabric will be intact. There will also be a monthly broadcast from his website.

"That's the last time I ever do crystal meth, speed, heroin, pot, 12 cookies' worth of acid, ether, ecstacy, and cocaine in a four- hour period.

Or was that just Tranceport?"
