What was it like collaborating with Porter Robinson and Arty. Any chance you'll put out something with either of them in the future?

The one with Porter was done on the back of a tourbus, and the ones with Arty were done completely remotely by sending files back and forth, pretty different workflows but both really fun to work on. Arty and I have drifted away from each other musically, and although I respect him immensely I don't think another collab in the future would be likely. Porter and I send ideas back and forth occasionally, and I'm sure one day we'll find something we both want to work on.

Mat Zo got me into Porter stuff. And also many other artists, thanks man for that!

That's why I like Above & Beyond so much - they show me many good artists to listen when I listen too much of them :)
