Have you been to Hong Kong before and is there anything you are looking forward to see?

Unfortunately I have never been to Hong Kong, but I really look forward to it. The island is a very famous place to see. I can't wait to be there.

What are the top 3 songs you are playing our right now on your tour?

I can't stop playing this old school Chicago track form Mike Dunn - Dance You Mutha; that literally devastating track from Planetary Assault System - Arc, and of course this Mr Fingers classic under his alias Mondee Oliver - Make Me Want You.

For music fans, are there any up and coming artists that you would currently recommend that they should listen to?

There is this French artist called December. He is really talented and has a lot of very good music which he is going to release. I'm really into the new project of Oliver Ho called Broken English Club, it's mindblowing. The guy is so inspiring, he has achieved so many things as a straight tribal techno producer, but with his new moniker he digs deeper into his influences. The result is a tremendous mixture of post punk afro-dub techno house music. You have to check him out.

Any releases coming soon?

For sure, it's been 2 years since my Last solo EP. Since then I was mainly focusing on collaborating and doing remixes. Maybe due to a lack of inspiration and the desire of reshaping my music. I am still in this kind of mutation, but 2 EPs are on their way.

What event that you are booked at for this year would you say you were looking forward to the most?

Without hesitation, it's the Asian tour I'm going to do. I really really like the Asian culture. It is so inspiring. So Hong Kong is a part of the looking picture.

Any habits that you always have before you start your set at a club or festival?

I always take a bath before my gigs while watching a TV series. It keeps me relaxed before the storm!

Francois X will be in Hong Kong on the 15th April at Volar, click here for more details.

 P.S. Francois X double EP is now out called 'We Move As One' on his label Dement3d with the young and promising French DJ Antigone. Have a listen below:
