WE REACHED THE STAGE WHERE TEENAGERS START PLANNING THEIR FUTURE. WE NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT WORKING WITH ANYTHING ELSE, IT’S SOMETHING THAT NEVER CROSSED OUR MINDS (LAUGHS). FROM THE DAY WE WATCHED FATBOY SLIM’S BIG BEACH BOUTIQUE DVD, WE DECIDED IT WAS WHAT WE WANTED FOR LIFE. YOUR FAVORITE PLACE IN IBIZA? IBIZA IS SOMETHING MAGICAL, THE MOMENT WE SET FOOT IN THIS PLACE FOR THE FIRST TIME, WE THOUGHT: “WE NEED TO BE HERE FOR ALL THE YEARS OF OUR LIVES”. WE REALIZED THAT IT’S NO EXAGGERATION TO SAY THAT THE ISLAND IS THE BEST PLACE IN THE WORLD. OUR FAVORITE PLACE IN IBIZA IS A SUNNY MORNING IN CALA SALADA. YOUR SPECIALTY IN THE KITCHEN? WE’RE VERY FOND OF COOKING, SO WE NEVER MISS AN OPPORTUNITY TO PREPARE A FISH OR SOME SNACKS FOR A GATHERING OF FRIENDS. BUT OUR SPECIALTY IS A GREAT BRAZILIAN-STYLE BARBECUE. WHAT EQUIPMENT IS MISSING IN YOUR STUDY? WE REALLY WANT TO START TESTING MIXES ON AN MK2, THE SENSATION OF MIXING WITH VINYL IS UNIQUE. 068 FIRST PLACE WHERE YOU PLAYED? THE FIRST PLACE WE PLAYED WAS A SMALL CLUB IN RIO DE JANEIRO CALLED ABS LOUNGE, AND IT WAS THERE THAT WE MET. BEST CLUB EVER? VERY DIFFICULT QUESTION. BUT HERE IN BRAZIL WE CHOOSE THE PRIVILÈGE CLUB IN BÚZIOS. THE CLUB’S ENERGY IS SURREAL. YOUR BEST SESSION WAS ON? IN IBIZA WE CHOSE TANTRA, BECAUSE THE PROXIMITY TO THE CROWD, THE CABIN AND THE PEOPLE AROUND CREATE A UNIQUE ATMOSPHERE. IT’S INCREDIBLE. THE BEST DJ YOU’VE EVER SEEN? “AAH”, WE HAVE SOME DJS THAT WE ALWAYS FOLLOW AND WE REALLY LIKE THEIR WORK. HOWEVER, WHEN IT COMES TO HAVING ONE ARTIST AS A REFERENCE, THE ANSWER CAN’T BE ANY OTHER WAY: THE MARTINEZ BROTHERS. THE WAY THEY DRIVE THE DANCEFLOOR, THEIR TRACKS, THEIR CHARISMA. THEY ARE SURREAL. IF YOU WERE NOT DJ, WHAT WOULD YOU BE? OUR DECISION TO BECOME DJS CAME VERY EARLY ON, WHEN WE WERE STILL CHILDREN, EVEN BEFORE A TRACK TO DEFINE IBIZA? SOME SONGS MOVE US A LOT, WE’RE VERY NOSTALGIC ABOUT THEM. SONGS LIKE ENERGY 52 - CAFE DEL MAR OR THREE DRIVES - GREECE 2000 (ORIGINAL MIX). BUT IF WE HAD TO CHOOSE ONE THAT REMINDS US OF IBIZA, WE’D GO WITH: GROOVEJET (IF THIS AIN’T LOVE). IT WAS THIS SONG THAT CAME TO MIND THE FIRST TIME WE SET FOOT ON THE ISLAND.
