Name one record that Egon has that you'd want to get from him. I don’t know his record collection like that, but I’m sure he has a few. If I could trade record collections with anyone in the world, though, I’d hold on to my own instead. I have the best records for my personal taste. Period. The record industry is said to be collapsing. How will it survive? That one’s out of my hands. Smart work or hard work? Both. But if I had to choose one or the other, I would always go with smart.

What advice would you give to a young producer?
Favorite boogie or disco song?
Best dinner under 30 bucks in Los Angeles?
I’m on that mid- to late- '80s Minneapolis influenced kick at the moment. Stuff like Dam-Funk’s Adolescent Funk. The Prophet album still sounds good too. I discovered that years ago and people looked at me sideways. Now I think they’re ready.
Listen to everything. What would you say to a young record label owner? Listen to everything.
McDonalds. Best dinner over 30 bucks in LA ? I take it back. I hate McDonalds.
