1. Hello Jesse how are you?

Hello mate, yea im good thanks, tired after a hectic weekend but good...

2. You are headlining the Mass Recordings room here at The Funktion Rooms,tell us a little bit about yourself for those who may be unfamiliar and give us the lowdown on what we can expect from you?

Well im a very busy club dj, playing quality house music to plenty of people every weekend for the last 15yrs. Ive been fortunate enough to play all over the world & i cant see it slowing down anytime soon!

3. Looking back on 2007 as it draws to a close, any particular highlights to share with us ?

Well i think it would have to be taking my brand Connected! out to Ibiza this summer for the first time. 75 of us went out there we held some amazing parties including an awsome boat party & a cracking night @Es Paradis.

4. Your Connected nights/brand is doing so well, Tell us a little about it and where we can find it?

We have monthly residencies at Ministry Of Sound & Turnmills in London & hold regular nights all over the capital, also up & down the country, ie Reading, Brighton, Croydon, Glasgow, Norwich, Bromley...

5. Which records do you think will sum up this year for you looking back?

Well personally i think Deadmau5 has had an amazing year & the Swedish mafia have had some belters too.

6. Whilst in the reflective mood where do you think 2007 leaves us dancemusic wise on the whole?

Wow good question, Musically i dont think the electro house scene will get any harder (it cant surley) hopefully things will get a little more melodic & underground. i cant stand to see a good track get a naff vocal put over the top & whacked on now thats what i call christmas dogshit vol 25.... Clubbingwise.. well, the smoking ban has now really come into play with the cold weather & rain etc, so only time will tell, but on the whole i see the scene as being healthy enough to survive.

7. On a lighter note, top of your Christmas present list from Santa this year will be?

I just want to relax at home, with my little girl & watch her open her presents.

8. What is the perfect way / place / location to spend Christmas as far as you are concerned?

see above, oh & my missus makes a wicked xmas dinner!

9. And finally your favourite Christmas carol and have you ever done a cheeky remix of it?

i am a bit partial to a bit of Little Donkey haha, & no i wouldnt dare do anything so cheesy....
