Gatecrasher Summer Soundsystem 2000

Ashley Casselle - Interview

You played earlier in Progressive, how did you find it?

It was good actually, they just led me to the door.

What have you been doing since you got here?

I've been playing for about four hours, 'cause there's a hold up with the flights… there's a few people, like Anthony Pappa, flying in from Australia, Sander [Kleinenberg] and Timo Maas, two Europeans flying in too. Big hold ups.

Who are you going to see?

My manager's arriving in a bit, he also manages Paul Van Dyk, so I'll see…

Have you played any other festivals?

No, this is the only one so far, I've done a few dates in Ibiza, but it's cool.
I used to play about ten years ago, I used to do p.a.'s with a keyboard, not DJing.

Fave tune?

Ooh, that's a really tough one. Any remixes by Futureshock, and anything on Hope Recordings.

Any amusing anecdotes?

Yeh. If I have a sachet of powdered water, what do I add?
